Promethean LP-1.
The Promethean LP-1 was developed under the L&S Central Ohio Research Division [CORD] to meet the uncompromising reliability standards of professional end user teams. An overbuilt 7075-T6 housing is paired with a user-replaceable crumple hood that surrounds crystal-clear Japanese glass and patent-pending AuraWake circuitry.
AURAWAKE.
AuraWake™ is CORD’s patented, reliable utilization of shake-to-wake technology. Competitor shake-to-wake optics will auto shut-off after a set number of hours to conserve runtime, and a motion sensor reactivates the reticle once movement is detected. However, motion sensors may exhibit unreliability if damaged during impact, fostering a subsequent equipment failure upon weapon deployment.
To prevent catastrophic aiming system failure, CORD Instruments is proud to implement AuraWake™, a new partial shake-to-wake system that ties the motion sensor only to the circuit of the 65-MOA ring.
Following 5 minutes of non use, the LP-1’s outer CQB ring will “sleep,” yet maintain the 2-MOA dot on at all times. This provides a constant, action-ready aiming reference that cannot be interfered with upon motion sensor failure, while significantly increasing runtime.

First impressions: Robust, a bit heavy but it is extremely solid. Very crisp reticle. The QD system operation is smooth. Customer service is excellent. They are friendly and very professional. Extremely pleased with the product and service.
Garrett R. (verified owner) –
I loved the extras that came with the optic and I really appreciate the customer service. Thank you very much.

Fantastic durability and value, even though it’s only “assembled” in the United States, you’re supporting an American small business that is dedicated to making big waves in a very competitive market, and the larger they grow the more innovation they can bring. I will be buying more of these.

Almost 3 months of waiting and it was totally with it; some people have been complaining it is physically way larger than it needs to be, and that is a very valid point. But most people don’t run anything but a rear BUIS and their optic on the top rail of a standard ar15 so having a larger optic footprint isn’t annoying to me.
Glass clarity is great, no noticeable tinting or distortion, and optic brightness is insane. Even in the sunny desert where I shoot I don’t have a problem with finding a good brightness setting.

Great looking optic and the glass on it is the clearest I’ve seen. I’m happy with it.
Justin S (verified owner) –
The clearest glass, an absolute tank, and incredibly well designed. This sight is easily one of my new favorites and one I use a lot. She remains zeroed after removal and with many impacts while running my rifle. I’m super happy with this purchase and can’t wait to see where it goes from here with Lead and Steel.
Joshua M. (verified owner) –
I really like it so far, seems well built so I’m not too worried about it breaking from being dropped like my old red dot.
I’ll have to make a review after actually using it for a year or so.
John (verified owner) –
One of the clearest and most robust feeling red dot optics on the market today. The build quality is every bit that if an Eotech (or better) and you don’t have to worry about holographic battery drain.
The controls are also the best from an ergonomic standpoint and the qd attachment is the most forgiving and easy i’e seen.
There is some serious engineering going on here and the pricing is basically unbeatable for the quality you get.
This is a true 5 star rating.
