    Was really impressed with the quality of the glass and inovation of this scope, Brian Browe is super nice guy as well.

    Yeah.. looks like a copy of the ACOG. Titanium, good. Batteries, bad.

    I wouldn't go saying it's great just yet. Just because it's made from titanium doesn't mean that the rest of the product is up to snuff. I'd guess that titanium is probably more expensive than aluminum, and he's offering a lower price so what are the trade offs? I'd like to see someone get hands on and evaluate before inferring that it's good to go or worth the $$$.

    37mm eye relief? Those familiar with the ACOG line, how's that measure up to the most common?

    Looks like it's made to compete with this, and has a shorter eye relief.

    I want an EOTech XPS with one of these:

    Vibration Motion Senso r:
    With any battery operated system, “battery life” is always a concern. The vibration motion sensor is designed to conserve battery life by putting the
    electronics in “sleep” mode if vibration or motion is not detected after two hours. This was designed to preserve battery life if the system was put away
    and / or mistakenly left on. Also, the SIC button was programmed, so that if the button was pressed in a carrying case or storage rack, the system
    would automatically shut itself down after three (3) seconds. The BCO has an average battery life of 2000hrs. nominally with a minimum of 720hrs. on
    max brightness. In “sleep” mode, the battery has a life expectancy of over 13,000hrs.
    ETA: I want one that will turn on in automatic mode if vibration is sensed, and turn off after an hour if none is present. This can't be that hard can it?

    Hmm. A uController that tracks target light level instead of ambient light at the scope might help prevent washout but reliability of the uController worries me. Seems like it should be priced more midway between a Trijicon and a quality reddot. Battery life looks outstanding though.

    The only thing I could see going wrong with the light controller is mud or dirt. If the sensor gets covered in something, it would go really dim right? As long as there is an etched reticule, I guess it doesn't matter that much.

    It looks interesting but for $1400.00 I want something other than an ARM's mount.
