TheHolosun HS508T X2 is an extremely rugged collimator sight for small arms, featuring a titanium body, Solar Failsafe power system, Shake Awake battery-saving system and the ability to change the aiming mark. The X2 version features an upgraded horizontal button layout that is much more convenient and user-friendly, as well as a Lock Mode button lock to protect against changing settings.
Lightweight construction
The body of the viewfinder was made of extremely durable titanium alloy combining mechanical and chemical resistance. The footprint of the collimator was made in the popular RMR mounting standard. Unlike the previous version, the X2 series uses a new - horizontal button layout, which, according to most users, is more convenient and user-friendly. The X2 collimator is also enriched with Lock Mode, which, when activated, disables the operation of the buttons, thus preventing accidental changes to the sight settings. The device has a high IP67 rating, making it resistant to weather conditions and temporary immersion in water. The aluminum body is finished with a hard anodizing technique, which provides high resistance to abrasion and scratches.
Optics
The Holosun Micro Red Dot HS508T X2 uses lenses coated with multi-layer anti-reflective coatings, which provide high light transmission and a clear and sharp image free of parallax error.
Variable aiming point
Thanks to the Multi Reticle System, the user can change the size and style of the aiming mark. You can choose between a classic 2 MOA dot, a 32 MOA circle and a combination of dot and circle. Such functionality makes the collimator great for hunting, as well as for sport and tactical shooting. The sight uses a green colored aiming point. The green diode provides a higher contrast of the aiming point against the background of the environment, this color is better perceived by a person and at the same time the least tiring to the eyesight. All aiming marks are emitted by a single diode, so after changing the reticle you do not lose zero. The control system and diode are resistant to shock, weapon recoil and weather conditions, so the device works efficiently and stably even in harsh field conditions.
Solar power supply
The collimator is powered by a CR1632 battery, which, according to the manufacturer, provides up to 50,000 hours of operation at a brightness setting of 6. The device additionally uses a Solar Failsafe solar panel, which in strong light (sunlight or artificial light) supports the operation of the battery, is responsible for automatic brightness adjustment of the aiming mark and replaces a discharged battery in an emergency situation. The user can use the automatic brightness adjustment or independently change the brightness have 10 daylight settings and 2 settings for night vision.
Battery saving system
With an impressive operating time of up to 50,000 hours, the device owes its Shake Awake system, which automatically turns off the LED when there is no movement, and the device goes into sleep mode. Turning on the aiming mark again only requires moving the weapon. The user can independently define the time after which the sleep mode is activated.
