...For anyone interested in slide mounted optics I suggest you read the Sage Dynamics white paper. https://1312bba5-e7e7-76e8-1fca-a01...d/7dc128_21de6dec9537496b9c0ff74a0c1370c2.pdf He even lets you know which batteries work better than others.
"It is worth noting that multiple battery failures occurred during testing on multiple MRDS, however all noted battery failures were with Energizer and Sony brand batteries and each failure was well before the quoted battery life of the optic they were mounted in. Duracell brand batteries have only failed when charge was exhausted to date."
Looks like Duracell is the go to battery? Is this what you all have found? I need to purchase some.
The cheap Maxell battery's that were in my Viper RDS' both went onto the shelf working and came off of the shelf (+/- a year) dead.
Thanks again cedartop, for the link to the whitepaper. Very helpful.
