Battery life:red dot scope?
« on: November 29, 2007, 02:02:15 PM »
I have an Aimpoint Red dot scope on my contender. This is it's first season hunting. Can I leave it on all day without it dyeing? I only turned it on for the first & last half hour of daylight and when i was moving.I guess I could just turn it on and wait and see, but that seems like such a waste.

Just leave it on all day. My first one went 7 seasons before I replaced it and it wasn't dead.
RIP Mike. Died on July 14th, around 2am, with his family at his side, he went peacefully to be with god.
