Hey guys,
I got a 507c for my g19 to replace my Vortex Venom that I moved over to my g34 that I use for uspsa. The Venom is a great dot but really isn't robust enough for a defense weapon in my opinion.
I was having trouble deciding between the RMR and the 507c, the side loading battery tray was the deciding factor. I have the 507k on my 43x and it has worked perfectly so I was already down with Holosun. Yes I know it's made in China and no I don't care.
My question for those of you who also have it is in regard to the autobrightness. In daylight or even in a room with light it works really well but in complete darkness or even low light the dot is far too dim for me to precieve. I use the Dot only and I basically can't see it at all in low/no light. With the circle reticle on it is better but still not great. Now if this is the way it is for everyone that is fine I guess I was just spoiled by the Venoms amazing autobrightness feature. So is it a similar situation with yours? In daylight or a well lit room it works perfectly, it's only in low light that it's an issue.
I did some Google searchs and saw a few others with similar results. People mentioned it being a setting or 2 too low in certain lights. If I was in a dark room aiming into even a dimly lit room I wouldn't be able to see it at all on auto brightness
So let me know guys is it just mine or are they all like this? I am using energizer batteries currently if that matters.
