WOLF0 Red Dot

I was looking for an affordable Red Dot, and gave the Cyelee Wolf0 a shot. Paid a little over 100 dollars for it. Man, what a solid little red dot. It feels quality, the red dot is clear and bright. The shake awake works superbly, don't pay attention to those negative reviews about that. Hogwash. As soon as you pick it up bam on. What you want. Battery life is great 3-5k hours depending on use and brightness. Let's say 3000 hours, 8hrs a damn day carrying. You will go 8 months at minimum before you need a battert change. You should out of practice swap out batteries every 6 months anyway. For an EDC person that I doubt is armed 8hrs a day consistenly... it's gonna last you. Again depends on settings but 3000 hrs minimum is great, 5000 hrs batt life max is even better. Again batt change every 6-8 months out of principle you will never have to worry. Zeroed with a bore sight. Love the buttons, big easy to use. It looks bad ass the shape. Glass is great. It just screams quality. Go look at those abuse vids to see just how durable this guy is and holds zero. We are talking banged, dropped, cracked to hell glass... holds zero. Unreal value. Snatch these up before the price shoots up. Customer service is speedy and they seem to care. This one is a no brainer for the cost. I own a Holosun 407c, and the Wolf0 is just as good minus the solar aspect. Yes would trust my life with the Wolf0.

If I were shopping for a normal sized red dot for a pistol this would still be my first choice. The glass clarity on this is fantastic and is well built and holds zero.

Let me start off by saying i've used and purchased tons of high end optics from eotech, trijicon, vortex and other brands for many years and have extensive shooting experience. Ive purchased 4 of these optics to test and evaluate. 3 Wolf 0 and the RMRSC version All 4 still work and function great and hold up to the same conditions a trijicon RMR, and aimpoint t2 have been put through and mounted as AR15 scope mounted optic, pistol optic, ccw optic and been abused (drop/environmentally tested), extreme cold temperature tested (-25 below) and painted and repainted a couple times The sight picture is more clear than a RMR in my opinion. It offers a larger field of view and I feel a cleaner image. The external frame seems to have held up over time even when dented and nicked up. The red dot image appears crisp enough to engage targets out to 300 yards. So far it has held up on .308, 6mm ARC, 5.56, 9MM with no issues going through tens of thousands of rounds between the 4 optics. I would feel comfortable recommending this optic for most applications. If the company would like to send some to test I will do more in depths but currently waiting for the enclosed version to come into stock again to purchase to compare to the ACRO

Great dot for the price, but it is certainly no Holosun, Vortex or Trijicon. I have put around 2000 rounds on this site, direct-mounted to a G19.3 L, and it has functioned excellently, with no issues in that regard. Fit and finish are solid; it mounted directly to my RMR cut slide (Brownells) with no issue whatsoever. My principal complaint is the brightness. If you shoot outside, this dot is simply hard to see, even at max brightness. Indoors, overcast skies, dawn, dusk, nightime its a great dot. Middle of the day in direct sunlight? not so much. Its functional, but with a 3 MOA dot at peak midday sun, you are really getting more of a 1 MOA dot. I am not sure if the shake-awake feature truly works or if the dot stays on. I hope it's the latter, because the battery life is not stellar, but I use cheaper coin cells and rotate them every 4-5 months anyway, so that could be a me issue. The dot appears crisp, the glass is clear, and the dot has held zero with no issues. The screws sent with the product have survived countless firing cycles, and the sight being used (often) to rack the slide. TLDR: Good dot, great for the money, not great for high sunlight environments, battery life sub-optimal relative to my Holosuns

Pure garbage, and customer service is just as bad. First, they did try and package everything nicely compared to name bands, but you can still tell this is Chinese junk. I mounted it fine. The dot isn’t very crisp but is a step above knock offs. The shake awake seemed to function well for awhile. The gun stayed mostly in a holster secured in my truck out of sight only to be function checked monthly. After maybe 3 months, the battery died. Sure, I’ll replace it with something cheaper if it’s going to eat through batteries. Next check, the sight is dead. I checked battery voltage, all good, check battery contacts, all good. Tried another new cell, nothing. Tried a new Panasonic cell, nothing. Battery voltage good and cell was new stock. I take the gun out of rotation until I can figure out the sight. Randomly the sight would start working, put it back in. Next check, dead. I contacted customer service by email. Quick response, I’ll give them that, I need to only use Duracell batteries. That’s nuts… I don’t even respond. I’m pretty tech savvy and can understand using a higher quality cell, but you can tell it’s not a cell issue. If their response is to exclusively use Duracell, then why isn’t it shipped with Duracell? Save your money and get at least a Holosun. If money is that tight, spend just a little more for an Olight. This company and product just are not worth the hassle.

I went to the range about two weeks ago, and tried out the Cyelee red dot on my Glock 19. Went through about 200 rounds, so far the red dot has held up well. I even brought the Trijicon red dot to compare. Surprisingly, Cyelee one was doing fine so far. It fit my RMR cut perfectly, so I didn't have to install any new plate or adapter. The only feature I didn't really test out was the Shake N Wake because I was at an outdoor range, and it was pretty sunny outside. All I had to do was zeroing the red dot, and it hit the target about 15 yards away. I did have to play around with the elevation. The aluminum housing was tough because I did intend to hit it against a bench a few times. The screws came loose a tiny bit but I could fix it in no time with my Allen keys. I like the 10-level brightness settings, and did set it at a brightest level since we were shooting under a hot sun above 100 degrees. The dot was still visible when I stared at it after a few minutes. The wide FOV is also good at acquiring my targets very quickly. I just replaced the battery and found the top cap quite helpful since I don't have to take off the red dot and placed the battery on the bottom like the Trijicon RMR. I don't know if Cyelee plans to make a red dot with a circle around it like the Holosun 507C since I found that feature perform very well on my rifles. I consider giving the Cyelee to my wife to install on her Glock 17 for home defense. So far I am happy with the product. Look forward to new products from the company. Also thanks to Sean, the owner, to reach out to me to request my review. I will use it more at the range, probably put it through more torture test and abuse to see how far it can go.

The down and dirty...JUST BUY IT! Don't get wrapped up in anything else! IF you aren't a duty shooter, I can happily inform yiu that students and enthusiasts are beating on these in our courses and use all of the time. Zeromis easy, price is great and it's held up under some amazing testing we've put it thru on known optics destroyers. So, a handgun is a no Brainerd. Yiu will appreciate the clarity of the glass, the parallax limits, the brightness levels and its capability to hold zero. No paid review! Bought with our own money and bought 3 more since as loaners and beaters to recommend. We are hoping to add a couple of other models soon, so we may do some full video reviews thru courses and sm. That way we have larger reach to more of these phenomenal products. THERE IS NO PARALLEL IN THE PRICE RANGE! This is the ONLY budget optic we recommend...and we have ran and tested them all! From close to $1k to these. We have many and have debunked some well known names that have put out some terrible and rushed products. THESE ARE legitimate.

Came on time and packaged well. In fact, I have bought many brands of this type of product and I have to say that the documentation with this one was better than any I have ever seen before. The instructions were clear, easy to follow and well thought out. The product seems good quality, especially considering the price. It mounted exactly according to instructions with the supplied parts. Took it out and has worked well so far. The dot is bright and clear and adjusted properly. The glass is as good as rds for 3x the price. It seems an amazing value. The only negative that I have found is that the rear deck is a little taller than I would like to see, and a little taller than I’m competing products. Maybe an extra millimeter. For the price difference, this seems a worthwhile trade-off. So far at least Cyelee has won over a new fan and I will buy their products again.
