hitmanNo2 Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Sweet. It comes with a dishcloth. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Nice to see the price going down quite a bit. When I first saw them a couple months ago they were in the $120 range. Link to post Share on other sites
Got Wood? Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Prayers have finally been answered! Oh. Didn't see that it was fibre optic only at first Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 I wouldn't trust Chinese manufacturers sticking radioactive illumination in their optics. Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Well, you can always glue a piece of tritium next to the optic fiber To be honest, it has picked my attention and will probably get one if I manage to find some information about it . Anyway, the description states that it includes two LR44 batteries (not included), that makes me wonder if the optic fibre is actually used or it is just a gimmick while the optic uses battery power Link to post Share on other sites
Got Wood? Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Ah okay. I saw self illumination and couldn't see a battery cover/compartment Link to post Share on other sites
chas Posted April 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 We'll see. I just ordered one. Link to post Share on other sites

Katotaka Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 As a owner (and big fan) of battery-free optics, I'm 95% sure it's battery powered. The POV pic showing the reticle screams LED, note uneven brightness across the reticle ....... and the reticle is bad they better just put a single circle dot or even better, triangle there oh, the "fiber" strands looks like some sort of electric wire, not even acrylic rod IMO it's not that difficult, check this https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Black-Tactical-Black-Auto-Reticle-Brightness-adjustingfiber-red-circle-dot-sight-sight-rifle-scpoe-fits-20mm/2678173_32781930112.html Link to post Share on other sites

RC: Did you not make one from a Trijicon Reflex replica years ago? Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 Looong time ago (still have one) and is a slip on cover for a Guarder/Walther cheapo red dot. Link to post Share on other sites
chas Posted May 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Mine arrived this morning. - Haven't opened it up to see if it carries batteries, but most likely. - No buttons, always on, unless you put the rubber cap on. Doesn't hold on too well, you will surely lose it while walking around. - Auto-adjust brightness level thanks to a phootoreceptor on the front. Takes about 1 second to adjust when you go from inside a building to outside, or dark and bright room. - Reticule (cut up circle with dot in the middle) is crisp and nice. - Very good brightness, indoors as well as in the sun. - Rather heavy for it's size. - No markings. - Finish is satin black, with a coarse "sandy" feeling to the touch. - Comes with throw-levers. - Kill-flash included. Does not screw all the way in but it's tight enough. Still sitting in the office, but I'm already confident this is a good buy, both for skirmishing and decoration. Link to post Share on other sites
Got Wood? Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 Any update on how people found using these in game? Link to post Share on other sites
Got Wood? Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Finally nabbed one of these (thanks Blazed99) A very nice unit, although the always on and self adjusting is a little frustrating. The real optic is fibre and powered by a tritium vial at the end of the fibres, for an always on in low light effect. This clone has an always on battery switch, which then adjusts. The brighter the light, the brighter the dot. But when you step inside, perhaps into the dark, it goes very dim or even off. Why people make sights that work this way baffles me. Never let it turn itself off, that’s silly. I think the problem can be mostly over come by replacing the fake optic threads with real ones, and feed them round to in front of the light sensor. Should up it in nearly dark areas, but pitch black will still be a no no Link to post Share on other sites
