Aimpoint T-1 Battery Storage Idea

It will stay on extra bright for like 2 years.

I left mine on since 2007 or something totally stupid like that (whenever they first came out) at it still has the original battery.

My manual says 5 years on setting 8 10 months on setting 10 and the extra bright setting is 12

Good to know...I think about the last 3 settings are "Extra Bright" as in "so bright I have never needed them". Not even in Iraq in direct sunlight. I think my daytime setting was 8 or 9. I leave them on 8 full-time now unless I need to turn them down in low light.

I love the T1...

Ya me too 8 is all I ever need most of the time.

I bought some different contact cases and they're better. If I have time, I will try and post the improved version tomorrow evening.

Thanks for the kind words.

I tied my spare in the cut off finger of a latex glove and put in the underside of the LT mount.

Good idea! Just don't put any solution in there!

I went ahead and made a new Thread for the "improvements" to avoid people having to scroll all the way down here to get the new stuff.

The new Thread is called "Improved" T-1 Battery Storage Case Idea?" and the link is:
