Eotech Replacement Optic??

[BBdown]

I have two Eotechs I'm thinking about sending back.  My question is what do I get to replace them?  I like the circle dot reticle of the eotechs and the ability to co-witness irons.  I haven't had problems with mine.  I would really like something lighter but don't know what would be a comparable replacement.  Any suggestions??

Aimpoint T1/H1 on a Larue mount. They have enough mounts that you could choose exactly the sight picture you want. You could go with a 4 MOA dot if you want a bigger dot.

Eotechs are simply one of the best money can buy.  You will have a difficult time finding improved optics unless you want magnification.  Great field of view and really hard to break.  The micros are gaining in popularity but I would not trade to save that nominal weight.  The heavier shroud is designed to protect from battle field abuse and battery life is outstanding.  Many are NVG compatible and you can always buy flip away magnification.  Although the flip away magnify optics are expensive.  Combined they will run about the same as an ACOG.  Most ACOG's are 4X but the down side is they are always 4x.  Anything under 100yards, just use the Eotech.

Aimpoint T-1 or maybe the new Trijicon red dot

That's kinda the way I'm leaning.  The only thing I don't really like with the aimpoints is it's just a dot.  I wish they offered a different reticle.

Anyone running meprolight red dots?

I have a few Vortex varieties. I just got the vortex Spitfire 1X, and I really like it. It's very solid and clear. It has a red/green circle dot with absolute cowitness. Prices run about $300 right now. I can't say if it's an eotech replacement for you, but it does all I need in an easy 1 power. I haven't had it long enough to get a battery life estimate yet.
