So since everyone now hates Eotech except me... are there Eotech like alternatives that are available.?
I'm talking about similar reticle & NOT tube shaped, not an Aimpoint or Acog, & rugged.

This looks kind of interesting.  Am I retarded or do they not list the battery run time anywhere?

It has 2 batteries..  The main USB battery and a back-up CR123  I haven't seen a time on it - but battery life is why they put two in there.

This is good to read.....I hope more options become available. As much as I like Eotech I'm not buying another one. It was hard to think that all this time Eotech were the only ones with these sites. It's nice options are starting to come on board.
That Elcan looks great.

The Mepro 21 reflex sight has some reticles similar to Eotech.  Primary Arms has a new red dot coming out with a reticle similar to their prism scopes.

I'm looking into these two from Shield Sights LTD  - the British military prefers them over the Aimpoints - so they are hopefully sturdy. Price is right in the EOTech ballpark.

SIS $449 ( selectable dot / circledot )

Those shield sights look horrible and cheap, the window looks tiny too. They probably work decent though.
