The Crossfire II Red Dot is not a standalone new release. whirlpool Goes one step further by offering solar energy options Red And Green Dots, as well as an FDE body. This makes the CrossFire II a compelling option and significantly enhances its value proposition, especially when compared with other options on the market.
powered by the sun
The new CrossFire II Solar Red Dot expands Vortex’s popular optic lineup by combining proven performance with superior power management and user-friendly features. Designed for recreational shooting, the compact 1x optic works equally well at home on close-range drills or ringing steel at a distance. At its core is a crisp 2 MOA bright red or bright green dot sight, paired with SOLAR with Auto D-TEC technology, which automatically switches between solar and battery power depending on available light. Powered by a CR2032 battery, the Optic provides up to 50,000 hours of runtime in standard operation, while solar assist extends battery life to an impressive 150,000 hours. Motion activation with 10-minute auto-shutoff saves power by automatically activating the optic when motion is detected.
Built for the real world
The Crossfire II Solar Red Dot features 12 illumination settings, including 10 daylight brightness levels and two night-vision-compatible settings, making it adaptable in a variety of lighting conditions. The optic is also magnifier-compatible and comes with both a lower 1/3 co-witness mount and low mount for flexible installation on a variety of firearms. Its lightweight, single-piece chassis weighs just 4.47 ounces and features a low-glare matte black anodized finish for durability and low visibility. Additional features include ArmorTech lens coatings, fully multi-coated optics, unlimited eye relief and parallax-free design for faster target acquisition. Nitrogen purging and O-ring sealing ensure the optic remains waterproof, fogproof and shockproof in harsh environments. The CrossFire II Solar comes with red dot mounting hardware, a custom tool, a rubber cover, a lens cloth, and a CR2032 battery, backed by Vortex’s unlimited, unconditional lifetime warranty.

Like the standard edition, the Vortex keeps prices affordable. The Solar Red option sells for $169.99, while the green option sells for $10 more. This is, again, exceptional value. Combine this with Vortex’s VIP warranty and human-first service style, and you have a winner.
