Does anyone know how many hours of illumination a single battery can provide to this scope on the highest setting? Lowest setting?

Don't know as mine was defective and returned. Replaced it with the UTG 30mm SWAT 3-12X44 Compact IE Scope with AO Mil-dot, 36 Colors EZ-TAP which is a MUCH better scope, especially for the AR-15 platform. Highly recommend this scope.

I left mine on by accident and found it a week later and it was just fine. Not comparable to the 3 year life of aim point but it won't die overnight. Hope this helps

Highest setting you can expect 36-48 hours of continuous run time, lowest setting 86-94 hours.

Haven't used it enough to find out. Can't get it zeroed. Reticles will not move. I have a great pattern at 7:00 o-clock no matter what dials I turn. Contacted the seller and Amazon and nobody seems to care. My advice: don't buy it. It's a lot cheaper than the others for a reason.

This unit has 2 settings ,on high you get 8 hours at 30 lumens , and 16 hours at 15 lumens , full charge in 7 hours of sunlight . Excellent product .

The batteries in mine lasted probably lasted 10 minutes or so. But it should only take a few seconds to dial in your scope, plenty of time to put the guns on paper.

The manufacturer did not specify. Suggest you contact UCO/Industrial Revolution. I'd guess and say the low level setting is about 2/3 to 3/4 less than high setting. Manufacturer says high is 150 lumen but I think its more like 100-125 which is still very good for the price.

Afraid I can't answer that one. I have only one light so I don't know its effect on others. My amazement about my Mr. Beams is battery life. We put in batteries the middle of November, and the light is still going strong through a winter of horribly low temperatures.

I do not use the light continuously, but I have used it intermittently for an entire night of hunting, and I have not changed the battery yet.

Arun, all-battery.com has Tenergy 2600mah (milli amp hour) cells, proper chargers too. I've used this brands RCR123A in my work and home flashlights for over 10 years. I've only had to trash 3 of 12 in that time. That's the best I've got to offer. I do hope you get started well. The new scope is a Meade ETX-LS 200mm. WOW! Orion 5MP camera!

I would say the battery life depends on the display settings. With full illumination, I think it's about 6 hours.

Yes, and that is one of the things I like best about this scope. Even when everything is functioning properly, during bright daylight, you can' even really see the illumination. I don't care about that. In lower light conditions, I love the green illumination, and it is very bright. The little extra money for the illumination is worth it. I love mine!

The battery should last 9 hours on low and 90 minutes on high or 160 minutes on strobe, this is continuous use, I rarely have to charge mine, I have ordered 3 of these, one of my own 2 for gifts and have had no problems, not sure of warranty, my papers say olight will repir or replace without charge any product or part which is found defective within 24 months of purchase after 24 months labor for repairs are still free however the parts for repair are not, this does say it excludes battery so I assume if it isnt holding charge they will take care of you, mine is over 2 year old and still working great !!

I use Energizer 1632. Best to get a few as they don"t last long and it's easy to forget to turn the scope off. Hope this helps

The light is hot, as in very hot 120+ Fahrenheit. (can cause some slides to dry out, but actually not that common) I wouldn't think it would it would ever need to be changed. I would expect in the least 1000 light hours for use. Lastly in this day and age you can either change the light socket, or the bulb itself, maybe with led. However I discovered compared to the scopes at school that being so bright can actually help in some cases. So if you're handy I would honestly change it out for an LED bulb, or just ignore it. This was the biggest flaw in this scopes design, along with the tray holder. If it wasn't for the good lenses, and the price - I would of never of bought it. But for biology - this scope is unbeatable for the price. Anything else let me know, thanks for asking by the way, I appreciate it.

I have had mine since december 2011 and changed the batteries just a month or so ago, but I also only use my light for no more than about an 20 minutes a day when I walk the dogs at night of have to go out to the car. So I guess it has lasted me a few months which roughly equals about 93 hours or use on a single battery, but I live in Hawaii and there is not a lot of night time activities to use it. Hope this helps. I do love its long battery lifetime and its compact gooseneck design.

the scope has various levels of brightness that I believe will change the dot's moa? it's only a guess but I would guess the lowest setting is sub moa and it's brightest is probably moa to 2 or 3 moa? I typically use the dot to assist with lighting conditions. but the low level is usually adequate for most lighting conditions. if necessary i will adjust the brightness so as not to cover the target. I hope this may help?

The scope actually has crosshairs and 4 dots. The good thing about it is that you don't have to waste the battery of the scope because the crosshairs and dot are always on there, you only have to turn it on is in early morning or evening hunts. Hope I helped.

The unit has one infrared LED that is switched separately from the scope itself. That is the thing on top of the scope in the picture. It adds a bit of illumination when there is insufficient ambient light for the scope to work properly. It is only marginally effective, but it does help some out to about 60 to 70 feet.

I can't tell you exactly since I usually keep it on for no more than 4 hours at a time, then I will recharge it.I've had it on for 4 hours straight at the high setting without it dimming at all. I suspect I could get at least 6 hours at the lowest setting.
