I bought a Meprolight Tru-dot RDS last black Friday. I just had to switch the original battery that came with it. That battery lasted 3500 hours constant on the lowest non-NV level. Not too worried at this point, there is no telling how old the battery is that came with it. I also left it on the second level for a couple of weeks by accident.

How long did the battery that came with it last?

How long has the second battery been working?

Somewhere in the Archives someone did a battery drain test, and IIRC battery life at the highest setting is appx 2K hrs.

Is this a fifth grade word problem?

No and this isn't GD.

I am asking others how long their batteries are lasting.

As soon as I got mine I threw a fresh lithium battery in it and turned it on the second brightest setting.  I move the gun in and out of the safe every day and have shot the rifle several times.   Been going strong since December.

Yeah there is a really good write up by a dude with a multimeter and a purpose somewhere on here.
Might be on youtube as well.
