Get the Aimpoint, you won't regret it! After your fifth battery change in the Eotech, you'd still be running the same battery in the Aimpoint, plus you can run over the Aimpoint with a truck and it will still work.

The Aimpoint PRO is a great deal, with a four year constant on battery life. PRO = Patrol Rifle Optic. You can find them for around $400 if you look around.

Yes definitely get the Aimpoint PRO. It's an optic and mount for ~$450 and can't be beat. Leave it on and change the battery every presidential election. Hangs tougher than the competition as well.
