Red dot VS Holographic sight
What's the difference between a red dot sight and a holographic sight?
1: The biggest difference is price.
A standard red dot sight is pretty straightforward: it projects a dot generated by a glowing LED on the lens.
A holographic sight is more complex because it projects a laser on a mirror that reflects the dot onto the lens.
The holographic sight's greater complexity makes it more expensive than the typical red dot sight.
2:Both types can be robust, so our RD02/RD02 Patrol Rifle Optic red dot is just as durable as an HS00/HS01 holographic weapon sight. Due to the red dot sight's simpler operating system, its batteries tend to last longer - up to years of service - while a holographic sight may give you only months of battery life.
3: Size is also a factor. The simpler technology of red dots enables them to be smaller than holographic sights, but... Holographic sight technology allows for dot sizes as small as 1 MOA. The smallest dot you can typically get on a red dot is 2 MOA. That can be a problem when you add a magnifier to extend your sight's range. Put a 2x magnifier behind a 1 MOA dot and it stays 1 MOA. Put that 2x magnifier behind a 2 MOA dot, and you now have a 4 MOA dot, which can actually obscure your view of a distant target through sight.
