CyeleeWOLF2 for Astigmatism, Circle Dot Sight, Micro Red Dot Sight for RMR Footprint, 3MOA Dot and 64MOA Ring Reticle

This may not be quite as quality as a Holosun, and certainly not as bulletproof as an RMR, but it seems rather reliable from what I've seen from video torture tests. Since I'm not sure many people will have both this and the Holosun 507c like I do, I will make some experienced comparisons.Size - pretty much identical, just a little different profileAppearance - The Holosun probably looks just a tad more refined, and certainly has more brand recognition/reputation which especially makes the Holosun logo appealing. But really, other than the shiny adjuster screws, this sight looks quite good. And that can be fixed.Auto wake - this feature actually works much more to my liking on this sight than the Holosun does. Many people claim this feature doesn't even work on the Holosun because it's so ridiculously sensitive that just walking near it turns it on. This fools people into thinking it never turned off. I don't like things being on when I don't intend them to be since in my mind this will always detract for the life expectancy of not only the batteries, but the product itself. This Cyelee on the other hand works exactly like I'd want it too. It's not so sensitive that footsteps generally keep it awake, but the slightest bump or movement of my piece itself reliably wakes it up instantly. I tested this dozens of times over the course of months because I want to be able to trust it for self defense, and it has been very impressive to react every single time.Ambient light dimming - This sight, unlike the Holosun 507C, does not have auto dimming. Is that a bad thing? I'm not so sure. Although the auto dimming of the Holosun is a cool feature, I can think of circumstances where it will actually cause you problems if you have it enabled. Like for example if you are hiding in the shadows and point it into a lighted area, the sight may be so dim that it may be very hard to see. That is why I am leaning towards setting it to a pretty neutral brightness level and leaving it alone unless specific situation requires otherwise. Which leads me to the next point.Buttons - I prefer the buttons on this sight way more than the Holosun. I have used both in very low light conditions, and without having eyes on the buttons, the Holosun's tiny, close-together buttons are far harder to locate, differentiate, and successfully press. I saw one reviewer that claimed these Cyelee buttons work poorly on this sight, and that you have to press into them with your finger nail to make them operate, and that review almost kept me from buying. I'm happy to report that has not been my experience at all. Yes, the button takes less force to click if you press them with your fingernail due to how that focuses all the pressure to the optimal point of contact. But I have repeatedly and intentionally pressed these buttons with my fat thumb and index finger to gauge how reliably they will work the way I want them to. These buttons, as they should, require significant force to press in. But I have found they work quite reliably with fat fingers when press assertively, and are not really all that hard to press. In fact I would say they are just hard enough to press that I won't worry that they will be pressed in accidentally by setting my piece down. I would also say the click they make when pressed in has a nice tactile feel as well as light audible one that is satisfying.Night vision compatibility - I was also very happy to confirm that with my 3rd gen pvs14 night vision, there are 2 excellent brightness settings for that purpose on this sight. Clarity through the glass was also very impressive with very little distortion. Possibly even less distortion around the edges than the Holosun, although I did not use them back to back to confirm. The settings are clearly intended for night vision since they can not be seen otherwise. The lower setting would be ideal for near zero light, while the second one is more ideal for a bit of moonlight or city light in the distance. So this also very well done.Reticle - Reticle is very crisp. I personally love the dot circle option this sight provides. Just like the 507c, you can cycle back and forth between dot, or dot circle. I love the dot circle for day time because my eyes are not great and it really helps me instantly draw my focus to the dot without searching even when you may have the brightness set a little low for circumstances. On the other hand, dot works better for night vision since too much light on the glass can cause reflections that can be hard to see past.It may sound like I'm bashing Holosun here but I'm really not. I like my Holosun quite a bit and I do trust it a bit more under most circumstances given Holosun's earned reputation. But it's a big problem for me that I don't trust my ability to work its buttons in low light. With this sight I do. The RMR style buttons this sight has is a far superior design.

I picked up an inexpensive 9mm pistol to use up a bunch of ammunition I had laying around. I had never purchased a Cylee before, but decided it was worth the gamble to keep the cost down on this range toy. I was immediately impressed with the construction and the clarity of the optic. The circle dot is large and bright. Of course you can adjust it down as needed very easily. I like that it as a top loading battery and I really like to shake-a-wake feature on an optic just inexpensive. I was happily surprised at how well the shake-a-wake feature works.I've put about 500 rounds through the pistol with this optic on top. So far it's doing well, holding zero, and looks great. You can't beat the price for an RMR cut optic like this. Also, it comes pre-mounted to a picatinny rail in case you want to put it on a different type of firearm. You just remove the picatinny rail to mount it to the RMR cut on your pistol. Side note, and a great added bonus, they send plenty of extra screws to make sure you can fit it on your pistol. I will likely be buying a second one of these and checking out other optics in their line.Update: I realized that I never spoke on the stigmatism feature of this optic. I have a stigmatism and while I didn't buy this optic specifically for that, the optic is CLEAR with zero flaring. If you have a stigmatism you know what I mean.

To keep things short, this is a great value package with popular features to rival red dot sights in higher price tiers. This sight fulfill its role on a 22lr pistol host and works as well as I can ask of it, especially for less than $130. The red (green in this case) dot has an RMR footprint, circle dot reticle, green color, shake awake and auto-shutoff, easy battery location, keeps zero, and good price.But real talk, I got this sight because it's priced low enough while offering the features I cared for. I'm not gonna drop $250+ on a Holosun or something similar just to put it on a low recoil 22lr pistol. Based on its performance so far, I wouldn't mind trying another one of Cyelee's offerings on a 9mm handgun or PCC. If you've been researching like I have, these family of red dots seem to work good on 9mm handguns, like the PSA Dagger.Pros:- The circle dot reticle is crisp and doesn't starburst like other red dots, like a budget Romeo 5, even at max brightness. While there is glow/bloom with the circle ring at higher brightness, at least the center dot doesn't starburst.- The green color seems to be doing the job. I have slight astigmatism, but can tell my red ACSS 507c has much more starburst than this green red dot, especially at full brightness for both.- Speaking of brightness, with the 10 brightness levels, the circle dot gets plenty dim and bright. I set it to level 5 and works perfect for me. It is at level 5 in the pictures I took.- Comes with extra accessories like extra sets of screws of various lengths, mounting and zeroing adjustment tools, a rubber sight cover, and picatinny mount (which is attached to the red dot when you open). I can't speak of the quality of the mount, but both the rubber cover and mount seem to work. At least they come free with the dot, unlike my more expensive 507c.- Has plenty of included clear paperwork to help you operate and install the optic. I like the topic they touch upon multiple times is when making zeroing adjustments, you are changing the bullet point of impact, not moving the dot direction. It is the industry standard for adjusting red dots, but it might not be obvious to newbies, like myself back in the day.- The adjustment screws for windage and elevation have an audible click and slight tactile feedback.- Has kept zero through my shooting time. It is on a 22lr host, so mileage may vary.- Auto shutoff (sleep) and shake awake, as long as you don't fully turn off the optic. This should help vastly increase the battery life.- While the picatinny mount's mounting claw isn't captured to the main bolt (ie it will fall out if you back the bolt all the way), it is under spring tension due to some springs on the other side. This helps keep that part straight and not wobbling all over the place.- Price.Cons: This is disregarding the optic price.- Would have been nice to be able to change the reticle between the circle dot and just a dot.- The side buttons aren't as easy to click as you would think. While the rubber pads are large, they still require a precise finger nail press than just pressing with your finger tip pad. Most pistol red dots I've handled are like this, but I initially thought that with the oversized pads, the physical button underneath would be larger too.- While a top loading battery is infinitely better than bottom loading, I prefer side loading locations.Neutral:- If you look at the picture I took of the reticle, the circle ring will run vertically edge to edge of the optic window when presenting it about how far it would be when aiming a pistol. This 64 MOA ring is larger than the standard 32 MOA ring I usually see on other Holosuns. Just a detail I observed, but feel indifferent towards. I guess it could help you acquire the dot quicker if you aren't lined up and catch the edge of the ring, kind of like the ACSS 507c. But this may affect your buying decisions if you won't want your optic window so busy. However if you were to mount this optic on a rifle or PCC, where the optic sits closer to your eye, then the reticle would be smaller and take less window space.In conclusion, unless something happens I don't like, I would recommend this optic. In a market with plenty of $300+ pistol red dots, it's nice to see companies like Cyelee have feature-rich offerings at inexpensive prices for buyers looking to save money.
