Calling gun lovers. Are you still changing the batteries of your red dot sight? If so, it is time for an upgrade to the Osight 3 MOA Red Dot Sight from Olight. Yes. The same Olight makes wonderful illumination devices like the Olamp Nightour. Not only the Osight 3 MOA is rechargeable—which is not exactly new, btw—but it also boasts the industry’s first magnetic charging cover.
This pioneering tech features an intuitive battery display that reveals the exact battery levels for both the cover and the optic. But you probably need not worry about charging often because the optic’s built-in 170 mAh offers more than 70,000 hours (!?) of runtime on its lowest mode and over 17 days on the brightest mode. That number is bumped to more than 70 days with the charging cover which is outfitted with an 800 mAh battery, rechargeable via USB-C.
As the product name implies, the Osight 3 MOA is a 3 MOA dot sight where MOA stands for Minute of Angle, a ranging term used to describe the size of an object at a known distance. In the case of 3 MOA, it would mean the dot will appear about 3 inches in size at 100 yards (91.44 meters or 300 feet).
The optic itself boasts a sleek, covert styling with a CNC machined 7075 aluminum housing, a large 0.94 x 0.85-inch multi-coated lens, industry-standard mounting footprint, and built-in motion and light sensors. Thanks to the sensors, the sight turns off automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity and wakes up in an instant.
The auto-sensing mode chooses the optimal brightness. In manual and lockout mode, it offers 10 daylight levels and 2 night levels. And did we mention it is a parallax-free dot sight? For the uninitiated, this means no matter where your eye goes with the sight’s axis, the dot stays fixed on the same spot, thereby improving accuracy. Finally, Olight claims that the Osight 3 MOA Dot Sight can hold zero even after 10,000 rounds of shots.
The Osight 3 MOA Dot Sight by Olight is available red or green dot and it can be had for US$229.99 from olightstore.com.
