Thanks for that.

I was thinking that the problems originally noted were more than just reticle shift, but that's all the is being talked about here for the last however many weeks.

"Yeah, I'll never shoot in -40 degrees, so why do I care?"  Well, it's because they admitted to having more inherent design issues than just the temperature POA/POI shift...as noted above.

I can't imagine opening up all the refund Eotechs is a high priority job at L3....probably being handled by one or two employees in their spare time when they have nothing else to do.   In their shoes I would worry about sending out product first, repairing warranty claims and then at a distant 40th or so on the list would be to open up all the boxes that have Refund right on the address label.  $.02




Aim Surplus on the other hand is rockin' it....got my Aimpoint PRO today....now if only the weather will cooperate so I can try it out.

Not that I'm holding my breath I can deal with no sight and no check yet, but of everyone that's posted only one has gotten that email. Within minutes of the refund confirmation email, not the "we reviewed your sight email", everyone posts about it enmasse.

Its hard to believe they wouldn't send out checks/inform people in pretty big batches. I'm thinking about pulling out the BS flag...

Agreed...it will more than likely go down like the big mass email everyone got last week about the return submissions going through, and to standby for refunds.

I got you...but the logic for me was easy:

1. Refund
2. EOTech credit or gift card
3. Return my optics back because they could not verify that there was anything wrong.

It is a win/win situation any way you look at it, with zero risk involved.

At least you guys will get the email.  My email account was deleted shortly after they received mine in the mail.  I am completely in the dark.  I tried to change the email account associated with my return but im sure they just ignored it as a status update on getting a check.  I should try calling, but good luck finding time during business hours....  If i can even get through.

I own 3 eotechs and only sent 1 back. My xps-2 is the only one that was just never right. Couldn't hold zero. My other two have been fine, 1 drains batteries if I leave it connected, so I loosen the battery door when stored



I trust the other two, it has never given me any reason not to trust them
View Quote
None of mine ever were right.  I live in an are of temp and humidity extremes so perhaps that may explain the ever changing POI. This with,  battery drain and some oddities with paralax in close distance never jived with what Eotech specified.  Those specifications and  my desire of an optic to work in such the way specified are why I bought in.  At $400-$700 a pop I wonder why anyone would still buy one or keep one when they can get out of it at the price they paid.
It doesn't take rocket science to build a good reliable red dot or prism sight with low weight.  Also the 1-x scope have came up in options and down in price.

I think Eotech was successful in their run.  Getting hit now that their true specs are coming to light but still selling them on curtails.  I would venture to say that they had a year or so before obsolescence with their marketed  specs holding true-just a product life cycle of (an impressive) 20 years ending a year or two earlier than it could have to them.

I had an older model that used "N" cell batteries that had an unreadable serial number. When I sent my email to request a refund I indicated the serial number was unreadable.

Did anyone wait longer than 3 days to receive a follow up email after filling out the Authorization request form? I filled it out on the 20th and haven't received anything via email yet. I read somewhere this first step of the process they were very quick to respond.

Edit: Reason for asking is I requested refund of $480 which is what I payed in 2012 but what I forgot is it came with a cover(512) and I think extra batteries or something. So MSRP is $460 and that is what I should have put. Hoping they don't simply auto reject dumb-asses like me asking for more than MSRP.

I just had to resend my response to EOTech since they haven't responded to my Dec 11th email.  They emailed me asking if I knew where I purchased the EOTech and if I had the receipt.  I emailed them that it was purchased online (couldn't remember the store) while deployed to Afghanistan in 2007 and I didn't have a receipt or email.  Figured I'd get a confirmation email after that was sent, but nothing so I'm resending another email.  I'm not planning on seeing a check anytime this year if I even get a check, haha!
