T1 purchased around 2013. No problems. Sold after a year or so due to severe astigmatism. ACRO P-2 purchased used / like new in ee. Returned to aimpoint for repair last weekend due to battery drain. New battery dead after 2.5 - 3 months of constant on use. ACRO SN 50120XX Purchased 5/2022 Edited to add SN and date for ref. Edit2: Aimpoint returned ACRO and said everything checked out ok. No problem with power consumption. Looks like they did replace oring and spring. I will install new battery tomorrow and continue to update with dates battery goes dead. My expectation was double this duration even at highest setting. Only other variable is that it was left in car some. Last battery went Jan through April so high temps not a concern maybe low temps??? I may store in HVAC next 3 months unless in use and see if that helps. Exit3: I don’t think sight was left on highest setting. I am making sure it is stored at 7 and will see what happens. Attached File |

I have 2 M68 kits, 2 PROs and a T1 I've never had any problems with any of them. No glitchy electronics, no POA shift. I've had the M68s since 2006-7 and the PROs 2011ish, the T1 around 2014. The M68s and one of the PROs have seen regular use. Weekly for several years. I used one of the M68s and one of the PROs in a few classes each. The T1 has seen light use. |

Acro P2, purchased 9/2022. Mounted on a G17MOS. Roughly 2,000 rounds later and recently noticed debris/ dust on the inside of the rear and front lens. Some pieces appear a little larger then others and I can only assume if it’s actually dust that got inside or maybe pieces of the glue they use during the manufacture process that broke apart. The pieces shift around whenever it’s fired. Hardly noticeable when shooting but wasn’t something I expected from Aimpoint. RMA issued and I just mailed it back to Aimpoint today. A quick Google search didn’t really show if this was a common problem. Someone on another forum advised he had the same issue, RMA provided, and Aimpoint later mailed him a brand new P2. We’ll see what happens. |

Mine has been constantly on since February 2023, was carried on my winter gun and outdoors gun while working on the property, lots of range, matches and classes used. Same battery it came with. Are you on nuclear bright all the time or adjusting only when needed? |
