Unity Tactical FAST FTC 4X Magnifier the one with the mount built into the optix for 550.00 shipped, and the Eotech g45 for about the same price with no mount. Opticplanet

If low light shooting, G45. Why not just get the one you think looks the coolest? Mount height and all that will not matter for shooting coyotes.

I've heard the glass on the unity isn't that great but I've never looked through one.
I have the G45 and the glass is pretty damn good IMO.
That's all I know.

I have zero experience with the G45, but I did go from a G33 to the Unity and I didn’t feel like it was a step back.

Again, no true direct comparisons but I recall the G33 being a pretty highly reviewed magnifier.

Thank you. I  just wanted to pass along Opticplanet having a Big Sale. I picked up the Unity Tactical FAST FTC 4X Magnifier with the mount built into the optic for 550.00 shipped, and the Eotech g45 for about the same price with no mount.

Just my personal observation as someone who has only owned my G45 for a few weeks and hasn’t shot with it yet. The glass quality is very good, the turrets are much stiffer than a G33 and won’t turn without effort, and the unit with the STS mount seems very well made. The eyebox doesn’t feel bad to me at all and this is mounted ahead of my Troy folding rear buis. I would recommend this and you can get one on a good sale if you subscribe to the UPC code on gun.deals. Got mine for ~$500.

Yes. G45 has better clarity, and less parallax in my evaluations.
