Overview
The Gideon Optics Valor Mini is an enclosed-emitter micro dot for RMSc-compatible slides. Two coated lenses seal the LED inside a 7075-T6 aluminum housing, keeping the light path protected from lint, moisture, and dirt. Its 20.5mm-tall by 16mm-wide window carries a 3 MOA red or green dot, and the base sits on a 6.25mm deck.
Ten brightness levels split into eight daylight and two night-vision settings. The side-loading CR1620 can be changed without removing the optic, while shake-to-awake puts the reticle to sleep after 225 seconds without movement. The housing is rated IPX7 for one meter of water for 30 minutes and 1,200 G shock resistance. Gideon lists the optic at 26.6 g without the optional rail mount.
