If you want lightweight got fiber/tritium
If you need the battery powered illumination then go that route. I think the led model with a battery installed is close to 18oz |

The two big features of the LED model are a) it does NOT have the fiber optic feed which is so bright and washes out the reticle, that they are commonly taped over to defeat this feature and b) the RMR mount pad is forward on the objective end so that it can be used for passive (NV) aiming.
One of my preferred set ups; here is an example why:  A Do-it-all Rifle Optic |

The weight difference is 4 ounces.
I prefer the LED to fiber. The fiber is too dark sometimes and too bright other times. The LED is always just right. |

I bought the LED myself, as the fiber didnt work well in Vegas (super bright targets, shaded shooting bench.) I also liked the more forward mounted RMR option.
However I've yet to mount the LED - got this cool scope then immediately had to head across the country to help family for a few months. So can't say how well it works. |

One of the nice things about the fiber-optic ACOG is that it doesn't need batteries. However, the LED ACOG is easier to use until the day that no one has AA batteries.
Weight has been mentioned. Either choice is smaller and lighter than an LPVO. I vote for the LED version. |

I honestly never turn the illumination on, so I saved 4oz and got a TA01NSN...love it. I did an offset T2 instead of the RMR. For RMR mounting, go LED...much better forward. I have the RMR mount if anyone is interested

Everyone talks about the tritium/FO being better for TEOTWAWKI, but never talks about the fact that lithium AAs are <$2/ea, can be replaced once a year and have a 20yr shelf life. This means that as long as you buy 20 Energizer Ultimate Lithium AAs when you buy the sight, and then swap the battery out every year, and buy another 2 pack of batteries every other year, should batteries suddenly become unobtainable 10 years after you buy the optic you still have another 19-20 years of illumination left. Contrast with tritium/FO where you have ~12-15yrs from manufacture to tritium too dim to be useful, but the FO can give you an illuminated reticle during daylight for decades. TA02 is going to be my next ACOG, with an RM09 on top. |

Haven't seen the need for LED illumination over my fiber optic versions with long dead tritium. By the time it gets dark enough that the fiber doesn't illuminate, it's dark enough that I'm no longer wanting to use magnification anyway.

I'm new to this forum and have asked to become an advertiser. I created the REM ACOG (Reticle Enhancement Module) for the TA31 ACOG. It snaps over the sight housing and then held in position with 2 allen screws.
The REM ACOG illuminates the reticle of the Trijicon ACOG TA31 / M150 sight in low light conditions and reduces the reticle bloom in bright daylight. It eliminates the need for ChemLight sticks and it eliminates the need to replace the Tritium. It has 11 brightness settings so the user can adjust it to their desired brightness. The REM ACOG is designed so the Trijicon TA91 Tennebrex Killflash Anti-Reflection Device can still be used. It is Made of a 30% glass filled Polymer just like the pistol grip and hand guards. The Reticule Enhancement Module (REM ACOG) fixes the problem that is inherent in the TA31/M150 sight. We all know in certain low light conditions the Reticle is hard to see. When that happens just turn on the REM ACOG and you will get a sharp sight picture. The REM ACOG Illuminates the light collector fiber optic on the Sight and has 11 illumination settings, so the Reticle can be seen in total darkness on its lowest setting or when aiming from a dark room out into bright sunlight on its highest setting. The REM 21 does not interfere with the Tritium illumination of the Sight. The REM ACOG is designed to cover half of the fiber optic of the sight to reduce the reticle bloom that happens when out in bright daylight. They will be here by the end of February. If you want one you can pre-order them on my website https://m1bullpup.com/product/rem-acog/ Again I am applying to be a seller on this forum so I don't want appear like I'm trying to get away with not paying.    |

I've been running something similar in principal for a bit and it cures the problem of shooting from a dark area into a lit area. The problem that is most immediately apparent is the design of the body. I went to your website to do a pre order and after looking at the pics, realized that it isn't going to work with my mount. The first upgrade that many do is to go with an alternative mount. I run a schaffer mount with a Kram spacer. How many mounts have you confirmed fitment on? |

Quoted: Finally going to put an acog on my m16 with 11.5 inch barrel and wanted to see what people thought about the led models. It seems there is more to go wrong and the way I read the literature the tritium and fiber optic models have the bac. Thanks Have you ever shot with an ACOG before? If you haven't, I'd suggest checking them out before you buy. I love my TA31, but it isnt the most comfortable to shoot with. You really have to retrain yourself in the way you shoot to accommodate the short eye relief. Personally, I like shooting with the TA11 better, due to the eye relief. I don't know of anyone that has shot with a ta31 for any length of time that hasn't gotten a busted nose or brow from being scoped. If you think this might wind up on something bigger than a 5.56, get something with more eye relief. As for LED or not ... either model will work without illumination. When I'm target shooting on low percentage targets, I use a black reticle anyway. It is the most precise. If it absolutely, positively has to work no matter what, get the fiber/Tritium. If you don't mind dealing with batteries, get the LED. If you're gonna run the piggy back red dot, I'd get the LED model for that reason alone. |

This also means that all of the older ACOGs with dead tritium now have a new lease on life. |

Concerned a little bit with how bulky the battery knob is, but very intrigued. Thanks. It weighs 2.7 oz. The Fiber Optic will glow slightly depending on the LED setting used. The military use Chemlites and tape them down on the fiber optic and cover the entire FO with hurricane tape. You will no longer need to buy Chemlites and you can still use vinyl tape or hurricane tape if the glow bothers you. The glow is so faint when using setting 1 or 2. The Rheostat sticks out 11.2 mm past the windage knob but I wanted it to be used with gloves and easy to adjust on the fly. It doesn't interfere with the Line of sight or FOV. I have done drop tests right onto the Rheostat and it holds up perfectly. |

So it sounds more like the two halves lock together through a pivoting motion at the top, vs. snapping together with the two halves parallel to each other. Does that sound correct? Sounds Like it should be just as easy to remove as install. |

If you want one you can pre-order them on my website https://m1bullpup.com/product/rem-acog/ Again I am applying to be a seller on this forum so I don't want appear like I'm trying to get away with not paying. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img922/7889/xWYSGm.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img922/646/gSJ6Hq.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img924/7067/mpXSKO.jpg This is exactly what I have been suggesting for some time now for the accupoint 1-4 and 1-6. Trijicon should dump the tritium and go with a switchable ambient/led lit fiber. Ambient light, lighting the fiber means you only need battery/led power in limited day time situations and in dark. Batteries could last a very long time due to limited necessary use and because very little power is required to light a fiber vs a reticle directly. Make versions for both accupoints and I will be ready to buy. |

I received my KRAM spacer and discovered that the front Allen screw attachment point won't fit. I did find that if I just cut the front legs off the whole thing fit perfectly. With the combination of the rear Allen screw attachment point and the rugged snap together top point, the REM ACOG is still firmly attached. So anyone who uses the KRAM spacer can order the REM ACOG and let me know so I can remove the front legs. No problem.

I have couple of both.
I like both and couldn’t chose one over the other. The convenience of fiber is nice. The adjustability of led is also nice. Go handle them both and pick one. You won’t be disappointed either way. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Everyone talks about the tritium/FO being better for TEOTWAWKI, but never talks about the fact that lithium AAs are <$2/ea, can be replaced once a year and have a 20yr shelf life. This means that as long as you buy 20 Energizer Ultimate Lithium AAs when you buy the sight, and then swap the battery out every year, and buy another 2 pack of batteries every other year, should batteries suddenly become unobtainable 10 years after you buy the optic you still have another 19-20 years of illumination left. Contrast with tritium/FO where you have ~12-15yrs from manufacture to tritium too dim to be useful, but the FO can give you an illuminated reticle during daylight for decades. TA02 is going to be my next ACOG, with an RM09 on top. The tritium even on new ones is remarkably useless. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: This needed to be said. But I've got either 6 or 7 of them now and never had one with functioning tritium. I don't miss it and don't want it. The fiber does well enough illuminating the reticle as long as it's light enough to want/need illumination. Once it gets past that, it's offset/top mount RDS time. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Very much so. But I've got either 6 or 7 of them now and never had one with functioning tritium. I don't miss it and don't want it.

Put NV infront of one and it works fine. The tritium is only really useful for NV. |

I have a Browe that works very well. It auto regulates its own reticle brightness.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'm new to this forum and have asked to become an advertiser. I created the REM ACOG (Reticle Enhancement Module) for the TA31 ACOG. It snaps over the sight housing and then held in position with 2 allen screws. The REM ACOG illuminates the reticle of the Trijicon ACOG TA31 / M150 sight in low light conditions and reduces the reticle bloom in bright daylight. It eliminates the need for ChemLight sticks and it eliminates the need to replace the Tritium. It has 11 brightness settings so the user can adjust it to their desired brightness. The REM ACOG is designed so the Trijicon TA91 Tennebrex Killflash Anti-Reflection Device can still be used. It is Made of a 30% glass filled Polymer just like the pistol grip and hand guards. The Reticule Enhancement Module (REM ACOG) fixes the problem that is inherent in the TA31/M150 sight. We all know in certain low light conditions the Reticle is hard to see. When that happens just turn on the REM ACOG and you will get a sharp sight picture. The REM ACOG Illuminates the light collector fiber optic on the Sight and has 11 illumination settings, so the Reticle can be seen in total darkness on its lowest setting or when aiming from a dark room out into bright sunlight on its highest setting. The REM 21 does not interfere with the Tritium illumination of the Sight. The REM ACOG is designed to cover half of the fiber optic of the sight to reduce the reticle bloom that happens when out in bright daylight. They will be here by the end of February. If you want one you can pre-order them on my website https://m1bullpup.com/product/rem-acog/ Again I am applying to be a seller on this forum so I don't want appear like I'm trying to get away with not paying. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img922/7889/xWYSGm.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img922/646/gSJ6Hq.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img924/7067/mpXSKO.jpg That is great, very nicely done. I have one of your REM for the PS90 Ring sight. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Honest question, what does Browe do better than an LED ACOG? 4x32 prism, instantaneous auto adjusting reticle brightness - based on the targets illumination level. Can still pick your reticle (crosshair, chevron, horseshoe/dot), in red, green, blue or amber, BDC. Browe left Trijicon when they wouldn't listen to him to offer LED in the first place, then Trijicon released their LED models after he started selling. I love TA-31s, but a Browe BCO, just performs better. |
