EOTech XPS3-1 Holographic Sight: Night Vision Compatible
Click to enlarge image(s)
EOTech’s XPS Series is the shortest model sight yet! This sight is smaller than the former N-cell battery sight (511/551) and runs on a single 123 battery. It also has a longer battery life than the N-cell style sights. Smaller, lighter and always fast with three reticle options. With the new single battery configuration, the XPS allows more rail space than ever, leaving more room for rear iron sights or NV mount.
The single transverse 123 battery design reduces sight length. In fact, the shortened base only requires at most 2 ¾ inch of rail space compared 4 inches for N battery sights. The battery cap and latch are eliminated and replaced with a simple O-ring, tethered cap; thus, better sealing is achieved.
The battery compartment is now separated from the base to allow it to hover over the delta ring of the rifle. Check out these other features. Average battery life at brightness level 12 is roughly 500-600 hours, 3 times the life of N cell sights. Shorter yes but with the same size heads-up-display window our troops love. You now have three reticle options: 0- 65MOA circle with 1 MOA aiming dot, 1- a single 1MOA aiming dot, and 2-65MOA circle with two 1MOA aiming dots. Take a look at the example reticle pictures above.
Reticles by model:
XPS3-0 has a 65MOA circle with a 1MOA dot
XPS3-1 has a 1MOA dot
XPS3-2 has a 65MOA circle with two 1MOA dots
The XPS Series is available in Night Vision (XPS3) and non-Night Vision (XPS2) versions. The dash numbers reflect the number of the buttons on the back of the sight.
In holography, all the information required to reconstruct the reticle image is recorded everywhere in the Heads-Up display window. If the window is obstructed by mud, snow, rain, etc., the HWS remains fully operational , with point of aim/impact being maintained. Even in such extreme cases where the laminated window is shattered, the HWS is fully functional! As long as the operator can see through any portion of the window, the entire reticle pattern is visible on target...the operator can still engage with confidence.
