EoTech vs. Aimpoint

[PsyKo]

Try and find one of those batteries when you REALLY need it.

I wont have any problem finding batteries for my 552, i can buy 10 AA's for the price of one 1/3n. the eotech battery life is not really an issue, thats why most have BUIS.

i have both. aimpoint on my suppressed magnum research 10/22, and the eotec on my 10" AR. i'd say the eotec is faster and better with 2 eyes open. i keep debating putting something else on my 10/22 so i would say i like the eotec best.

I voted aimpoint I really like the EO but if I was in combat I would take an aimpoint hands down. It is much more rugged and can take a lot more abuse than an EO.

I do like the EO better in some ways but for a SHTF aimpoint no contest.

Just my .02

"your good for over 5 years if you leave it on"

Exactly...I was just pointing out that if you were REALLY worried you could swap the battery once a year and never worry about it running down

I have a couple older Aimpoints (only 10,000 hours) and that is what I do


I bought a bunch of 1/3N batteries online for dirt cheap, but radio shack or batteries etc always has them

I keep a spare in my battlegrip...but only because I too am paranoid
