Description
SIG Sauer ROMEO5 Gen II Red Dot Sight makes its biggest change where it counts day to day: the battery. The CR2032 loads from a side tray, so it changes on the gun with no re-zero, and MOTAC wakes the 2 MOA dot when the rifle moves and shuts it off when it does not — around 40,000 hours from one cell.

Product FAQs
Do I need to buy a mount for the SIG Sauer ROMEO5 Gen II?
No, a low Picatinny mount and a co-witness riser are both in the box with the SOR5101. Nothing extra is needed to get it on an AR-15 rail.
What is MOTAC on the ROMEO5 Gen II?
MOTAC is SIG's motion-activated illumination, which powers the dot up when the optic senses movement and down when it is left alone. That is how the CR2032 in the SOR5101 reaches around 40,000 hours.
Will changing the battery knock the zero on the ROMEO5 Gen II?
It should not, because the CR2032 slides in from a side tray with the optic still mounted. That is the main change the Gen II makes day to day.
ROMEO5 Gen II or ROMEO5XDR, which should I choose?
The Gen II keeps things simple with a 2 MOA dot on a CR2032 coin cell, while the XDR adds a selectable circle around the dot and runs a AAA battery. Pick the Gen II for a straightforward first red dot.
