The MINI SOLAR sight offered by the American brand SIGHTMARK is a technological marvel on several fronts. Firstly, its solar panel allows for autonomous operation of the red dot in outdoor settings using natural daylight, even on overcast days. In indoor environments, such as in a covered shooting range, the included CR2032 battery automatically takes over without any manual intervention. Another notable feature is the ECLIPSE system, which automatically adjusts the red dot's intensity from 1 to 3 MOA based on ambient brightness, with real-time adjustments. Both of these automatic functions can be switched to manual mode at any time using the lateral PLUS and MINUS tactical buttons. A long press (5 seconds) on the + button disconnects the battery, while short and successive presses on either button allow for manual adjustment of the light intensity. As for the design, we are dealing with a compact and lightweight sight (156 grams), highly effective in driven hunting and equally suitable for sports shooting. The precise adjustment of the red dot ensures a rapid target acquisition, comparable to the best sights on the market, regardless of their price. Elevation and windage adjustments are made using the dedicated turrets, with each click representing a 1 MOA deviation. An additional and practical advantage is that the caps of these turrets, when flipped, serve as mini-screwdrivers, facilitating easy adjustments without requiring additional tools. Resistant to shocks and recoils up to .338 Win Mag, this sturdy sight is made of premium quality aluminum. It also complies with the IP67 standard, making it waterproof to heavy rain. It features a quick-mounting system on a picatinny rail and a central co-witness.
