Hi Aimpoint,

I don’t have an ACRO yet but until this week I have been standing by to get one as soon as my preferred vendor had one in stock.

Looking for reviews from non-celebrities, I have heard complaints about battery life. One person said the battery will die in a week. Another said that he usually kept his at level 9 and his batteries usually lasted only ten days.

Is this true? Is there a plan to fix this?

Thanks!

And is this more vapor ware or is it actually available somewhere?

The battery that shipped with mine lasted 8 days. Ordered a 10-pack of batteries for $9, we’ll see if it improves. Other than that I love it.

Eight days on #10 setting (full brightness).

What's that translate to on settings #8 and 9?  IIRC, the default setting at startup is #7 which should be useable in most scenarios although I think most people will want to run on the #8 setting.

It was 8 days on setting 8 with the battery from the factory. It’s still on setting 8 and the replacement battery is going strong.
