Key Features

- Switch-To-Side Magnifier Mount: The G33 magnifier features EOTECH's innovative STS mount that allows instant engagement and disengagement. Flip the magnifier to the side for close-quarters work, then snap it back in line for precision shots without losing your sight picture.
- Extreme Durability: Waterproof to 33 feet (10 meters), fog-resistant internal optics, and built to withstand the harshest environments. The rugged construction ensures reliable performance in rain, snow, sand, mud, and temperature extremes.
- Extended Battery Life: Powered by a single CR123 battery delivering 1,000 continuous hours at nominal brightness setting 12. Smart battery management and auto-shutoff features ensure your optic is ready when you need it.
- Quick Detach Mount: The 7mm raised base with one-inch Weaver or MIL-STD-1913 rail compatibility provides absolute co-witness with backup iron sights and lightning-fast installation or removal without tools.
- Wide Field of View: Maintains exceptional situational awareness with a generous viewing window on the holographic sight and 7.3-degree field of view through the magnifier, keeping both eyes focused on the target area.

How the System Works
The HHS VIII combines two distinct optical systems into one cohesive unit. The EXPS3-0 holographic sight operates as your primary aiming device, providing lightning-fast target acquisition with both eyes open. When you need to engage targets beyond close-quarters range, simply rotate the G33 magnifier into position behind the holographic sight. The magnifier instantly provides 3X magnification of your holographic reticle without any change in zero or sight picture. When you need to transition back to close-quarters work, flip the magnifier to the side with one hand using the Switch-To-Side mount. This seamless transition capability makes the HHS VIII the ultimate do-it-all optical system.
Reticle Design & Ballistic Performance
EOTECH's 68 MOA ring with 1 MOA dot reticle is optimized for 5.56 NATO / .223 Remington 62-grain ammunition at 2,900 fps. The large outer ring provides rapid target framing and acquisition, while the precise 1 MOA center dot enables accurate shot placement. The reticle subtensions allow for range estimation and holdover compensation. At 100 yards, the 68 MOA ring represents approximately 68 inches (5 feet 8 inches), making it an effective tool for judging target size and distance. The system is adaptable to various calibers and loads with user-customized holdover points.
Compatibility
The HHS VIII is compatible with any firearm featuring a MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail or 1-inch Weaver rail. Perfect for AR-15, M4, AR-10, SCAR, HK416, MCX, AUG, Tavor, ACR, and countless other modern sporting rifles and tactical carbines. The raised mount provides absolute co-witness with standard AR-15 front sight posts and folding backup iron sights. Works with both 5.56 NATO, .223 Remington, .300 Blackout, 6.5 Grendel, 6.8 SPC, 7.62x39, and other intermediate cartridges. Also compatible with 12-gauge tactical shotguns and pistol-caliber carbines.

Night Vision Operation
The EXPS3-0 holographic sight features 10 dedicated night vision brightness settings that are fully compatible with all generations of night vision devices including Gen I, Gen II, and Gen III+ systems. When operating under night vision, the reticle brightness can be adjusted to prevent blooming or washout while maintaining a clear aiming point. The transversely-mounted lithium battery configuration keeps the optical pathway clear and prevents interference with night vision mounting solutions. This makes the HHS VIII one of the most versatile optical systems available for 24-hour operational capability.
Why Choose EOTECH?
EOTECH has been the gold standard in holographic weapon sight technology for over two decades. Originally developed for special operations forces, EOTECH holographic sights have proven themselves in the most demanding environments on Earth, from the deserts of the Middle East to the jungles of South America. Unlike red dot sights that can fail if the emitter or glass is damaged, EOTECH's true holographic technology remains functional even when the viewing window is partially obscured. This redundancy and reliability have made EOTECH the optic of choice for military and law enforcement professionals who stake their lives on their equipment. When you choose EOTECH, you're choosing proven technology trusted by those who can't afford to compromise.

This exclusive Flat Dark Earth finish offers both tactical and aesthetic advantages. The FDE colorway reduces glare and reflection compared to black finishes, provides better camouflage in desert and arid environments, and perfectly complements modern earth-tone rifle builds and gear loadouts. FDE has become the signature color of professional tactical equipment, and this special edition HHS VIII delivers that premium look with EOTECH's unmatched performance. This color combination is highly sought-after and represents a limited production run exclusive to select retailers.
