WampusCat Report post Posted November 9, 2014 Take note of the battery orientation. The older larger models with the AA batteries installed with their long axis parallel to the bore of the weapon have been known to shut off upon recoil. EOTech countered this problem by switching to CR123 batteries and mounting them sideways where recoil can not act on the electrical connections. The newer versions are also more compact.
