    I had the exact same issue as you with the battery draining on my new Vortex as well. I sent it in and they acknowledged that there was a battery drain issue. They replaced it and had it back to me in about a week. Great customer service. I also agree on the Vortex buttons...not a huge deal but it is kind of awkward to turn it off...I'd prefer something like holding down the "down" button for 5 seconds or something.

    I just got into the market for a new optic and these were two of the three on the list. Gonna have to think about whether or not I want NV for my optic or if I'm just gonna run an IR laser. Either way you did sell me on the Vortex Micro Magnifier with your other video. Keep up the good work.

  • @jeremywilliams6905
    @jeremywilliams6905 4 года назад +3

    Great video! I appreciate all the information. My son just bought the Eotech for his AR. He hasn't had a chance to use it yet due to time restraints for his military training but I'm sure he'll like it. I think I'm leaning more towards the Vortex. Looks like a good quality sight at a friendlier price. Keep up the good work. 👌

    Good video. good side by side comparison. I have had an Eotech (512) on my AR15 since 2008/9. Had two issues: delamination (2010) and battery terminals (2017). Eotech fixed the delamination issue (free) and they sent me a battery terminal kits (free). I can confidently shot 2 MOA with the Eotech on my rifle. I will tell anyone that has an Eotech, use lithium batteries as this will avoid corrosion issues. I am on 5 years using the same lithium batteries. I am seriously considering a XPS2-0 for a second AR15 of mine. Once that delamination issue was fixed (the battery terminal issue was caused by using non lithium batteries), I have not had a single issue out of my 512 which has seen hot and humid weather (100 F+) to 30 F in the rain. That's 10 years of stellar service. I would imagine a new XPS2-0 would be perform just as well especially since Eotech has addressed the delamination issues with their sights.

    Have you ever noticed that sometimes you missed something and you didn't know that you did before until you get reminded. Is the first time in a long time that I've seen someone do a side by side comparison to anything gun-related. I think it's very important to do so. People need to know when they're making a good decision.

  • @doktorfaustus
    @doktorfaustus 4 года назад

    Thank you for this comparison video. I will point out you refer to the EOTech model you review as the EXPS2 a few times, but I'm pretty sure the example you are displaying is an EXPS3. The difference is the night vision capability-your EXPS3 has the round NV button on the side; the EXPS2 would not. Speaking of side buttons, viewers should be aware that the XPS models from EOTech (not the EXPS models) do have the buttons on the back, like the UH1; I agree, side mounted buttons are better, especially if running with a magnifier.
