Vortex Crossfire II Solar Red Dot (2 MOA Dot) - Black

Vortex Crossfire II Solar Red Dot

The Vortex Crossfire II Solar Red Dot is a compact, high-performance 1x optic designed for fast target acquisition in a wide range of shooting environments. Whether you're engaging steel at distance or practising close-range drills, it combines rapid handling with advanced power management, motion activation and rugged durability. Compatible with magnifiers and night vision, it delivers dependable performance while remaining quick to mount and simple to operate.

Compact & Durable Construction

Built around a lightweight single-piece chassis, the Crossfire II Solar Red Dot is engineered to withstand demanding shooting conditions. Its low-glare matte black anodised finish helps minimise reflections while providing excellent resistance against wear and corrosion. Nitrogen gas purging and O-ring sealing ensure reliable waterproof and fogproof performance, while the shockproof construction is designed to withstand heavy recoil and repeated impact.

Fully multi-coated lenses maximise light transmission for a bright, clear sight picture, while ArmorTek® protective lens coatings help defend against scratches, dirt and oil for long-lasting optical clarity.

Solar Powered Performance

The standout feature of the Crossfire II Solar Red Dot is SOLAR with Auto D-TEC Technology, which intelligently detects available light conditions and automatically draws power from either the integrated solar system or the CR2032 battery as required. This intelligent power management extends runtime up to an impressive 150,000 hours when solar assistance is available, while still delivering up to 50,000 hours on battery power alone.

Motion Activation automatically powers the optic on when movement is detected, while a 10-minute auto shut-off helps conserve battery life whenever the optic is left stationary.

Fast & Intuitive Target Acquisition

The bright 2 MOA red dot provides a precise aiming point that remains highly visible across varying lighting conditions. Unlimited eye relief allows rapid sight alignment from virtually any shooting position, while the parallax free design helps maintain consistent point of aim during fast-paced shooting.

Ten daylight brightness settings provide excellent visibility in bright conditions, while the two lowest settings are compatible with night vision devices for increased versatility.
