I have one that's been running since 2003, is still in great shape and illuminates as well as it did when it was new. It's also no contest between the Eotech and Holosun, just get the Eotech and enjoy having a great sight.

It’s auto off after either 4 or 8 hours depending on which button you pushed last. 1000 hours is fine for battery life for an optic as advanced as these. A laser requires more energy than an LED (which is what’s used in a red dot) and that’s why the difference. 9000 hours in a year so you could power one for an entire year straight if you have a sopmod style stock with the battery compartment and fill it up and include the one in the optic. People get too caught up in battery life. If you are worried about bump in the night and the auto shut off, just press the UP button before bed and it will last until just before you wake up if you sleep 9 hours like me.
