I can get one of these NIB for about $185.  Is that worth it or would I be better off paying twice that for an Eotech?  I liked the older holosight better (that had the same profile as the eotech) but Bushnell has discontinued the AA model of the older style and only offers the N battery in the older style or the XLP in a AAA model.
Suggestions please.

The xlp is one of the biggest pieces of crap to ever disgrace a gun. There's a reason Eotech sold this design to bushnell and didn't go ahead and put thier name on it. Small window, ridiculous battery compartment, ghost recticles, the thinnest pos window I've ever seen......I could go on. It goes right along with bushnel's motto though........At bushnel, we don't make the products you use everyday...we make them shittier.

I cancelled my XLP order earlier this morning (before reading your reply) because I just couldn't bring myself to buy it with that tiny panel.  Thanks for the reply!

It also mounts lower than the standard EOTech, (XLP= Xtreme Low Profile) meaning it would need a riser to mount on an AR flat top.
