Well I got my first eotech, went with the 552. Here are some pics.

Very nice!!!

I held the new design Eotech 557 today. Buttons on the side, reticle provides 4 aiming dots for target distances of 0-300m, 400m, 500m, and 600m. And the raised the front of the base up a little so it could be mounted further up.
Very nice.

MAN I want a Eotech

yeah they had that one too but I opted against it. I wll never be firing my Ar out to 500 or 600 meters. Plus the reticle looked more clear in this one. But both are very nice

Same here but I've not used it enough to comment on battery life.

4 552's and 1 512 .. running lithium batteries, I don't have any issues with them eating batteries. Add a LaRue Po'Boy and feel the power as you range out to 300+m with insane accuracy (doing your part of course) ..

Mine is still on the original set of batteries. Granted I don't use it often, and I turn it off before I put it away.

The LaRue Po'Boy is mighty damn sweet, got to use it last weekend in NV. I didn't even bust out with the DMS-1 I was having too much fun with the Po'Boy.
