It\u2019s made of something they call SuperLuminova. It\u2019s basically glow-in-the-dark paint that remains visible in low light for a couple of hours after exposure to light. If the battery runs own or the optic fails for some reason, you can easily use that rear index mark with the pistol\u2019s front sight to get on target.<\/p>\n<p>As a practical matter, battery life won\u2019t be an issue for most users.

Brightness, windage and and windage settings and that\u2019s it. Not this one. The ROMEOZero Elite has mounting screws for three of the most popular EDC pistols, a steel shroud for extra protection and this model has the circle\/dot reticle giving you dot, circle or circle\/dot options.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Optics: * * * * *<\/strong><br \/>Most red dots a this price point use polymer lenses. The ROMEOZero Elite uses aspherical glass that\u2019s much more scratch resistant. It\u2019s got good edge-to-edge clarity with a slight blue tinge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Function: * * * * *<\/strong><br \/>Combine its compact size and with the circle\/dot reticle combinations and the TAP reticle and brightness adjustments and the ROMEOZero Elite is easy to use and very effective in just about any situation. And $200 for an American-made EDC sight with these features seems very reasonable for an optic that does what this one can do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Overall: * * * * *<\/strong><br \/>The more I\u2019ve shot pistols with red dots over the last couple of years, the more I\u2019ve become a fan of having one on my EDC gun. I hadn\u2019t actually mounted one, though, until the last couple of months, though and this is the one I\u2019m using. I\u2019m a big fan of the circle\/dot reticle in a compact sight of this size.
