Frequently Asked Questions

What is Holosun?

Holosun is a leading manufacturer of precision optics, specialising in red dot sights, reflex sights, magnifiers, and laser aiming devices. Known for pioneering solar power technology and Shake Awake, Holosun optics deliver exceptional reliability and battery life. See our about us page for more information.

What makes Holosun optics different from other brands?

Holosun optics feature several innovative technologies: Solar Failsafe uses a solar panel to power the sight even when the battery dies, Shake Awake automatically activates the sight when movement is detected, and the Multi-Reticle System (MRS) lets you switch between dot, circle-dot, and circle reticle patterns. Many models also feature titanium housings for extreme durability.

What is Shake Awake technology?

Shake Awake is Holosun's motion-sensing technology that automatically turns the sight on when it detects movement and puts it to sleep after a period of inactivity. This dramatically extends battery life, often up to 50,000 hours, while ensuring your optic is always ready when you need it.

Are Holosun optics compatible with my firearm?

Holosun offers optics with various mounting standards including Picatinny rail mounts, RMR footprints, and direct-mount options for many popular pistol and rifle platforms. Check the product specifications for mounting compatibility, or contact our team for advice on the best optic for your setup.

What is the Multi-Reticle System (MRS)?

The Multi-Reticle System allows you to toggle between three reticle options: a precise 2 MOA dot for accurate aiming, a 65 MOA circle for fast target acquisition, or a combined circle-dot for the best of both. This versatility makes Holosun sights suitable for a wide range of shooting disciplines.
