I'm in the 100% exact same situation right now. Just posted a thread about the available options.
http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_6_18/434290_IR___Visible_Slaved_Laser_Options.html Right now, leaning to the CQBL-1 that Optics Planet with coupon, etc., is running right at $700. The slaved feature is a deal breaker for me. I'm tired of f%&#^*(ing around with zeroing both of them with those tiny hex wrenches. |

I'm still torn. I don't like having to sight both devices in, but one they are set, its really a non issue. My current setup works, but I I've had dead batteries a couple of times, simply because the UniMax is easy to flip on while in my my safe looking for something else. Problem is... my budget to replace this is ~$500.

Problem is... my budget to replace this is ~$500. I ditched the lasermax because of fast battery drain. They are good for the price but I personally think the CT railmaster is better for an IR laser (sturdier/ better switch/ better battery access). If you don't have a slaved laser I don't really see the point of the vis laser. You would be better off just going to a IR setup. |

Not really sure what you mean here. I have the vis laser for daytime use without the NOD. |

I'm pretty impressed with my little unimax IR. I have a dbal and it definitely has more cool factor but I can't say that having both is necessarily worse than the dbal. Only problem i have with the unimax is being conscious about not snagging the buttons but i made a little cover.
