DOT EHS-1 Holographic Sight: The Ultimate 1 MOA / 65 MOA Optic for a Natural Heads-Up Shooting Posture and NODs-Ready Performance

• The DOT Enhanced Holographic Sight 1 is a duty-grade optic built for rapid target acquisition in extreme combat environments. As a rugged American made EOTech alternative, this true laser holography weapon sight features mil-spec construction and advanced night vision capabilities for professional operators. It delivers reliable performance whether you are running a standard patrol or aiming through heavy CBRN gear.
• Hit Targets Faster with the 1 MOA dot 65 MOA ring reticle: This dot holographic sight uses true laser holography to project a clear reticle. The large 65 MOA outer ring helps your eye find the center quickly in close quarters, while the precise 1 MOA center dot ensures accuracy at longer distances. This technology also makes it a highly effective astigmatism friendly holographic sight.
• Shoot Comfortably in Gear with the Built-In 2.26-Inch High Mount: The integrated 2.26 inch optical centerline sight naturally brings the optic up to your eye level. Designed as a heads-up shooting posture optic, this upright stance reduces neck strain and keeps your peripheral vision wide open. It provides the exact height you need to aim comfortably while wearing a bulky gas mask or aiming over front-mounted lasers.
• Stay Ready with 1,000+ Hours of Power and "Shake Awake" Activation: A single CR123A battery provides over 1,000 hours of continuous operation. The built-in Dynamic Wake motion activation automatically shuts the ehs 1 off when it sits still to save battery. The exact millisecond you pick the weapon up, the shake awake holo optic powers back on, ensuring you are always ready for action.
• Aim in Total Darkness with Night Vision (NVG) Compatibility: This night vision compatible holographic sight uses an anti-reflective coating that allows your night vision goggles to see the reticle clearly without light distortion. The tall mount allows you to slide your helmet-mounted NVGs directly behind the optic, serving as an effective passive aiming NVG sight by letting you aim safely without emitting a visible laser that could give away your position.

Signature Reduction for the DOT EHS-1 Holographic Sight 

• DOT EHS-1 ARD: This anti-reflection device mounts directly to the front objective lens of your DOT EHS-1. It eliminates forward light glint from the glass, ensuring your position remains hidden from targets and enemy optics in bright environments. The honeycomb design also protects your primary lens from scratches, mud, and debris without blocking your field of view or disrupting the reticle.

EHS-1 Holographic Sight Features & Specifications 

The DOT EHS-1 Holographic Sight is a duty-grade optic built for rapid target acquisition in close-quarters and mid-range combat. By utilizing true laser holography and acting as an integrated high mount optic, this sight naturally forces a heads-up shooting posture. This upright stance reduces neck strain, maximizes your peripheral vision, and provides the exact clearance needed to aim while wearing heavy CBRN gas masks or helmet-mounted night vision goggles. Machined from solid 7075 aluminum, it delivers reliable, field-proven performance for professional operators facing extreme environments.

Key Features

• Acquire Targets Instantly with a 1 MOA / 65 MOA Reticle: The laser holographic projection features a large 65 MOA outer ring to guide your eye to the center during rapid close-quarters engagements, while the precise 1 MOA dot allows for accurate shots at a distance.
• Stay Ready with 1,000+ Hours of Power and Dynamic Wake: A single CR123A battery fuels the optic for over 1,000 continuous hours. The built-in motion sensor automatically powers the reticle down when still to save battery, and instantly wakes the sight the millisecond you move the weapon.
• Clear Gear and NVGs with the 2.26-Inch Centerline: The built-in high mount brings the optic directly to your natural eye level. You can comfortably aim over front-mounted IR lasers and aim passively through night vision tubes without awkwardly pressing your face into the stock.

DOT holographic sight FAQs

What is the difference between holographic and red dot sights?

 Unlike standard holographic red dot sights that bounce a simple LED light off an angled piece of glass, the DOT EHS-1 is a true laser holography weapon sight. It uses a laser and mirrors to project the crosshair onto the target area. This makes the reticle sharper and helps your eye lock onto the target much faster.

What is a zero parallax combat optic?

 Parallax is an error where the dot seems to move off the target when you move your head. A zero parallax combat optic fixes this problem. No matter what angle you look through the glass, the dot stays exactly where you are aiming.

What does an astigmatism friendly holographic sight mean? 

If you have an eye condition called astigmatism, a normal LED red dot might look like a blurry star or a smeared line. An astigmatism friendly holographic sight uses a laser instead of an LED, which keeps the image crisp and stops the blur.

Is the DOT EHS-1 astigmatism friendly? 

Yes. Because it uses true laser holography, the 1 MOA dot and 65 MOA ring stay sharp and clear for most shooters who have an astigmatism.

Why do I need a 2.26 optical centerline for night vision?

 A 2.26-inch tall mount lifts the optic higher off your rifle. This extra height gives you the physical room you need to aim while wearing bulky night vision goggles or a gas mask. It lets you keep your head up so you do not have to crush your neck down against the rifle stock.

Does the DOT EHS-1 work with a magnifier? 

Yes. You can mount a magnifier directly behind the optic. Because the center aiming dot is a tiny 1 MOA in size, it stays sharp and accurate even when you zoom in to shoot at long distances.

How does Dynamic Wake work on holographic sights?

 Dynamic Wake is a built-in motion sensor. When your rifle sits still, the sight automatically turns off to save power. The exact second you move or pick up the weapon, the sight instantly turns back on. You never have to press a button during an emergency.

What is the battery life of the DOT EHS-1?

 A single CR123A battery powers the optic for over 1,000 hours on a medium brightness setting. The Dynamic Wake feature helps the battery last even longer when the weapon is stored.
