Holosun HE508T-GR-X2 Elite Reflex Sight - 1x Green Reticle, Solar/Battery Powered, Titanium Matte Black

The Holosun HE508T-GR-X2 Elite reflex sight is a compact, durable open-emitter optic engineered for pistol shooters who demand speed and reliability. Built around a titanium matte black housing, this 1x green reticle sight delivers a clear sight picture without magnification—perfect for close-quarters, defensive, and competition pistol work where fast target acquisition matters. The green reticle stands out naturally against most backgrounds and reduces eye strain during extended shooting sessions, making it a thoughtful choice for shooters sensitive to red wavelengths or simply looking for a fresher sight picture.

What sets the HE508T-GR-X2 apart is its dual power system. The onboard solar panel keeps the sight running in daylight without consuming battery life, while an internal battery provides seamless operation in low light or indoors. That hybrid approach means you get the ruggedness of passive solar tech backed by a failsafe: if the battery dies and the sun isn't bright enough, the sight doesn't go dark. Holosun's Shake Awake feature powers down the emitter when the gun isn't moving, then reactivates instantly when you pick it up—stretching that already impressive battery life even further.

The Multiple Reticle System (MRS) lets you choose between a 32 MOA circle, a precise 2 MOA dot, or both together, so you can dial in the sight picture that works for your grip and shooting style. The parallax-free design means your point of aim stays true regardless of where your eye sits behind the glass, and the unlimited eye relief gives you total freedom in mounting position and head position. Titanium construction keeps the sight light and tough without the fragility of polymer.

Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this reflex sight compatible with my pistol?

The HE508T-GR-X2 is designed as an open reflex optical sight for pistol applications. Verify that your pistol's mounting surface and footprint are compatible with this specific model before purchase.

Will the sight work indoors or at night?

Yes. The hybrid power system combines solar charging with an internal battery. If sunlight isn't available, the battery keeps the sight running. The Solar Failsafe ensures operation even if the battery is depleted—the solar panel will activate the sight in any available light. For indoor or low-light shooting, the battery backup is essential.

How long does the battery last?

The HE508T-GR-X2 delivers up to 50,000 hours of battery life, which translates to several years of continuous use. Shake Awake technology extends this further by powering down the emitter when the gun is stationary and reactivating when motion is detected.

What reticle options does this sight offer?

The Multiple Reticle System (MRS) provides three options: a 32 MOA circle for rapid target acquisition, a 2 MOA dot for precise aiming, or both overlaid together, so you can tailor the sight picture to your shooting style and range discipline.
