great for the money.

This thing rocks! I sold my Trijicon SRO and replaced it with this Cycelee Chamelon and I am not disappointment. I have astigmatism and Cyelee has figured out a way to make me see a beatiful circle red dot instead of a bursted start dot. I will be using Cyelee moving forward for all my firearms. One thing I am not sure is if I should replace battery but it came with batter preinstalled and I would assume manufacture is putting new batteries in. So i will wait till this battery dies to replace it. Other than that i have 0 complaints. It comes with may screw times thickness and length. They label the bags for you so it doesnt get any easier than that!!!!! Thanks Cyelee!

first time I am seeing an actual crisp circle 11/10

Great budget red dotThis is AWESOME! For the price, I can’t really say much negative. The optic quality is very similar to higher priced optics, and fit RMR footprint perfectly. Buttons have a good responsive click as do the windage and elevation adjustments. I noticed one issue so far since I carry every day, no matter the situation even when crawling under decks.In one instance the red dot was turned off because the decrease intensity button being uncovered with my one holster caused it to be depressed repeatedly and I didn’t notice it was completely off until I got home. Other than that, the shake awake function is great and it looks great.

The sight features an 8 MOA (Minute of Angle) dot and a large objective lens, which enhances target acquisition and clarity.

If you're looking for a reliable and versatile green dot sight, the Chameleon SRS8 Red Dot Sight is definitely worth considering. It offers the widest and largest field of view I have ever seen, making it easy to acquire targets quickly and accurately. Note that this reflex sight is also incredibly compact, making it an ideal option for those looking to add a red dot to their pistol slide as it's compatible with RMR or SRO footprint. The 8 MOA dot size is also perfect for this application, providing a clear and precise aiming point without obstructing too much of your field of view.This sight has a solid construction and feels sturdy and durable. It does not come with a Picatinny mounting base and can only be mounted directly to a pistol slide that has RMR/SRO compatible cutout. The sight uses a small CR1632 battery, and its battery compartment is hidden on the top side of its base, so you don't need to remove the whole sight to change it, but you'll need a small wrench, which is included. This is an excellent option for battery compartment design IMHO as you are not going to throw away your zeroing and have to re-zero it all over again when you change the battery because you don't need to remove the sight to do it! It has 10 levels of brightness. The two brightest of the 10 levels are almost indistinguishable though, but it's sort of normal for red dots. There are no IR illumination modes, so if you are planning to use it with your NV goggles, look elsewhere. I'm also missing a rubber dust cover that's usually included with such sights. Pressing the left side "+" button for 3 seconds turns the red dot ON and holding the "-" button for 3 seconds turns it OFF. In addition, it has lock mode, which prevents accidental button presses from making any changes to settings when activated, which is an excellent feature in my experience. The adjustments on this sight are also easy to make, and it comes with a small Allen wrench for making any necessary changes.The main selling point of this green dot sight is the motion wake-up feature, which is called MDS mode, or Motion Deactivated Standby in this model. It shuts off the sight after about 5 mins of inactivity and turns on immediately once you pick it up. Apparently, this feature works very well, and the sight lights up immediately as soon as I pick it up. This renders it perfectly suited for home defense situations and SHTF situations when you need to grab your weapon and be ready in seconds. If you store your firearm for a long time and want to save the battery, you can completely shut down the sight by holding the "-" button.To summarize, if you're looking for a cost-effective solution for close range target acquisition, this sight definitely works. It has a large field of view, and the lens has excellent clarity. The 8 MOA red dot sight is a particularly good way to engage close-quarters targets, evaluate target distance and track targets. I had no issues with zeroing it and it holds zero perfectly when shooting a 9mm caliber pistol round. I think it's worth the money.Bottom line:Overall, I would highly recommend the Chameleon SRS8 Red Dot Sight to anyone looking for a reliable and accurate accessory for their firearm. It offers impressive performance, solid construction, and an exceptionally wide field of view, a versatile 8 MOA red dot reticle, and an excellent shake-awake (called Motion Deactivated Standby) feature. All at a very reasonable price point. Whether you're a seasoned shooter or a beginner just starting out, this sight is definitely worth considering. The only minor concerns are absence of IR illumination modes and omission of a rubber dust cover. Despite that, this sight is by far one of the best I've used, and I do not hesitate to give it a solid 5 stars rating. Great sight for the money.Pros:1. Solidly heavy-duty built.2.

This is a great little red dot. It's a very compact design, but is ruggedly built. The dot is very clear and easy to see. It has a lot of adjustability and functionality. It has been holding zero really well! This was worth the cost.
