TIP: Aimpoint Comp ML battery
Posted: Sun Jan 08, 2017 9:43 pm
Here's a tip that probably only a few folks will find useful, but it may save some time and frustration.
I have an Aimpoint Comp ML that I haven't used in a few years. The battery was removed and long forgotten. I ordered new ones from Amazon, but they would not fit. They almost fit, but not quite. I was not happy, since they were of the correct type, but they weren't going in far enough to close the battery compartment.
Now for the tip. I removed the green plastic outer covering that has the product number and it fits perfectly. I can't imagine that's what the battery manufacturer intends, but the Comp ML has a plastic insert in the battery compartment that makes it impossible to install it with the plastic cover.
