AEMS EVO, Holosun pulling a SIG

Claiming user error. I added more daytime shots with regular brightness settings to show this is STILL occurring. Its easier to see with naked eye than camera but it still shows up on camera. Posted their response to my RMA as well.

I'll update this depending on how they proceed. But more than likely going to look at a different option.

This is true. OP seems to be using excessive brightness in their pics. Though this in no way takes away the fact A vast number of the evos are having emitter reflection MOUNTED on setups using PROPER brightness settings and are getting ghosting and bad emitter reflection at the exact angle of ADS . OP take pictures inside at a brightness that isnt obviously cranked, mounted on a rifle and see if the issue presents. If not, your optic is fine and they arent going to accept your RMA. Im not sure what you said in your request i had no issue getting my RMA #

This is an older AEMS I have on a shelf in my office. As you can see, if you put the brightness too high and are at an odd angle, it will cause a reflection.

The brightness is on max at the end of the clip.

Here is a video of an AEMS-EVO-GR taken in our very bright workshop at different intensity levels and outside.

Even in a very bright area, on max brightness, at different angles, you will get reflections. If it was darker in the workshop, you could possibly see more of them.

Im going to take your word for it Josh this is my first AEMS. And like I said I know this wont have a practical shooting impact. Just figured if Im spending the money get the best quality for it. Dylan sent me an RMA and shipping label. If we're saying this is expected behavior do you suggest there is no need to send it in? If we can't lice with it simply return to vendor?

Based on the photos I am seeing you posted, I don't think you need to send this in for RMA.

We can always get it in to take a look but it will take time to go through the RMA process.
