This is a no battery sight (they make battery versions also and it can be a little confusing) It has a tritium (glow in the dark) dot and a fiber optic light gatherer. This means that in real dark places the tritium glows softly, and in the sunlight the dot lights up from light gathered by the fiber optics.
Works great but; When you are in the dark, like inside a building looking out into a brightly sunlit street, the dot is on dim tritium power and cannot show up against the sunlit stuff you are trying to look at. Under these conditions you cannot see the dot and you effectively have no sight. That can be a serious problem if you are a soldier trying to stay alive. I have three of these Dual illuminated sights. This one is the brightest, the 12mm is almost as good and the 13 mm triangle is much dimmer. This one can "almost" make it as the single sight on a combat rifle and if you have a dark front sight post you can witness it against it work in all conditions.
These sights are combat tough, limbic simple, faster than anything else and you should get one!
