Product was dead on arrival. - Holosun HE507C 2 MOA Dot & 32 MOA Circle Reflex Red Dot Sight

I wanted to like this dot but never got the chance. Upon receiving the dot I looked though the sight, assuming there would be a dot due to the solar panel; there was a faint dot that washed out in any bright light. It would also disappear when I covered the solar panel, okay so the battery is dead. I verified that the battery was installed and tried 2 other new batteries. I read though the instructions to verify I was not missing something, nope. Sight was dead on arrival.
