Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my EOTech sight has night vision compatibility?

Look for a dedicated 'NV' button on the side of your EOTech Holographic Weapon Sight. The presence of this button signifies that the sight is equipped with night vision mode capability.

What happens when I activate NV mode on my EOTech sight?

Activating NV mode lowers the reticle's light intensity. This makes the reticle invisible to the normal eye but visible through a night vision device without causing blooming, allowing for effective aiming in low-light conditions.

How many brightness settings are available in EOTech's NV mode?

When your EOTech sight is in night vision mode, you have access to 10 different brightness settings for the reticle, allowing you to fine-tune visibility based on ambient light and your night vision device.

Can I use any EOTech sight with night vision?

No, only EOTech sights specifically designed with an 'NV' button are compatible with night vision devices. Pressing this button engages the NV mode, which adjusts the reticle's output for optimal viewing through night vision equipment.
