The "non-lit" you are referring to is actually for the battery, meaning a non-lithium battery.

I disagree, Ben. In "image 1" of this scope it states "Non-Lit Reticle". Why would they talk about battery requirements concerning if a reticle was illuminated or not? That would seem to be under 'battery requirements' or 'warnings' or words to that effect.

Further, "images 2 & 3" both state "non-illuminated" in the top center of the pictures. Past that, in the "specifications" it states a CRCR2032 is called for... which is a lithium battery, whci goes against your answer. I think this site has made mistakes in their specs.

Again, on the USO site for this scope under "description" it literally states "Reticle Illumination: Non-Lit" and nothing about a battery is stated at all.
