Game

Side by side the EOtech vs the Bushnell Holosight. EOtech makes the Holosight for Bushnell, so you could call it the Holo-Lite… Differences are the buttons, the EOtech has rubbery mil-specish buttons. Two brightness buttons and a Night Vision button. That’s for if you are wearing Night Vision goggles. To turn it on, you push the Up button, to turn it off, you push both Up and Down together. The Bushnell unit has an ON/OFF button and the two adjustments… simpler and easier to use that. The EOtech has the longer batter life thanks to the standard 3 volt units, while the Holosight that I have here uses a lighter N Cell battery. Both units will turn off after a certain time… about 8 hours. Both work well in most conditions. In very bright light, both can wash out, so you crank up the brightness… then you move inside and you get an eye full of glare. The EOtech here is about 400 bucks while the Holosight is about 250.
Which one is best for you, depends on the situation. I know several soldiers that purchased the Holosight for deployment with units that do not issue the EOtech. They are working well. The EOtech is frequently issued even if it is not the main US Military Red Dot sight… which is the Aimpoint M3 I believe.
