Light Transmission for the Scope Cap Pro | One Hundred Concepts
We determine what percentage of light is lost with using the Scope Cap Pro from One Hundred Concepts.
We also discuss light caps and the tradeoffs you may need to consider while reducing your signature.
While this is not a review, One Hundred Concepts did send this Scope Cap Pro to me for free. Keep that in mind as you consider my findings.

    I'm sorry but this mania about "daylight bright" or "Red dot bright" is missed placed. I want an LPVO where the reticle can be seen at 1X without any illumination ( like when batteries and electronics fail). That means an SFP reticle up till 8X. 10X or higher can utilized FFP reticles I only need illumination in an LVPO in dark areas or when low light situations present themselves.

    I guess the thing is to see how far, and at what angle, one can actually see a reflection from the glass. I think the caps also allow you to look into the direction of the sun without the image wiping out.

      @mikewazowski8013 great question! Bobro has a similar mount as well, but ours has a few key differences compared to the competition: 1) Ours is compatible with surefire pro mounts, so you can buy only the adapter if you already have a pro mount. 2) Our design brings the pivot point close to the rail (compare it to the overbore design), which tends to allow for a greater number of viable positions. 3) Ours should come in at a slightly lower price point.

    Would be nice if you developed a more quantitative scoring method to evaluate glass clarity. Too much subjective/qualitative factors come into play. Also, why the evaluation at such a long distance? Why not something a bit closer (like 200 yds) for a 1x6 LPVO? In reality who could really engage a target at 600 yds with a 1x6?🤷‍♂️

    • @compulsivegunbuyer
      @compulsivegunbuyer 29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Sounds like you are describing more of a resolution test under lab conditions, which I agree would be helpful, and there are official resolution charts I could use for that kind of test. The problem is that a quantitative fact like that is pretty abstract. I want to show you what things look like in situations similar to the scope's intended use--and no one is going to use a scope to stare at a resolution chart. That's why I like showing people through various scopes at various distances. The side-by-side cuts down on some of the subjectiveness, but you are correct that there are still far too many uncontrolled factors to make it a scientific test. But hopefully it serves as a helpful data point for a prospective buyer/user.

In this instance, a 1x secondary at the 12 o'clock position is ideal.
