The EOTech 552 is a 1x night-vision-compatible holographic weapon sight with a 68 MOA ring around a 1 MOA red dot, built in EOTech's long 5-series housing and powered by two AA batteries.
EOTech describe it as the most popular night-vision-compatible HWS they make — the 512's AA power with 10 extra settings for night vision.
Alongside 20 daylight brightness settings, the 552 has 10 more for Gen I through Gen III+ night vision devices. Windage and elevation move 0.5 MOA per click, and the mount fits a 1in Weaver or MIL-STD-1913 rail with a hex cross-bolt and thumbscrew. It measures 5.6 x 2.0 x 2.5 in, weighs 11.5 oz (326 g) and is rated water resistant to 33 ft (10 m). EOTech quote up to 2,500 hours from lithium AAs, or 2,200 hours from alkalines, at setting 12. It is made in the USA.
As with every EOTech HWS, the reticle is a hologram rather than a reflected LED, so the ring and dot stay usable through a smeared, wet or partly blocked window, and it is projected at 200 m to minimise parallax. If you will never use night vision, the EOTech 512 is the same sight without the NV settings.

What the EOTech 552 fits
Any 1in Weaver or MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail, which covers AR-15 flat-tops, rail-equipped shotguns and most modern carbines. EOTech calibrate the reticle's aiming points for .223 62 gr at 2,900 fps; with a shotgun the ring roughly approximates the shot pattern, which varies with choke and cartridge. Add magnification with an EOTech G33 3x magnifier.
