I view all optics manufacturer supplied batteries like OEM Glock sights, as placeholders. All new optics immediately get Duracells installed as part of initial setup.

I am trying a 509t2 ACSS mounted on a Holosun RMR steel plate a Shadow2 direct milled for a SRO. After about 400 rounds, the optic was slightly loose and could be pushed 1mm fore-aft. The mounting screw was torqued to 20 in-lbs, held with blue locktite, and witness marked. The screw had not moved, so I assume that there was some deformation of the plate and/or the mounting clamp. Interestingly the optic's zero was not in any way affected.
I inspected the plate and clamp and couldn't see anything wrong, but when I re-torqued it to 20 in-lbs, it was still movable. At 30 in-lbs, it is solidly mounted.
@JCN, it occurs to me this is probably a good application for E6000. I'm going to go apply some now. (The mounting plate was already glued with e6000).

How have your 509T's held up to moisture? I hear every once in a while that people get the insides of the glass fogged up with moisture.
