Burris AR-536 questions
The manual is pretty sparse so I thought TFLers might be able to help before I bother to zero it or (ugh) return it.
I'm confused about the 5 settings per red/green. Settings 2-4 are predictably increasingly brighter. Setting 1 seems to do nothing. Setting 5 seems to vary randomly in brightness each time it's selected or is completely dark. Am I misunderstanding the settings or is there something wrong with mine? Also, settings 2-4 seem to create "ghosty" light around the reticle and inside the scope in medium light conditions. Is this normal for a lighted reticle sight? Am I being too picky? Setting 5, once I'm lucky enough to get the correct intensity, is quite pleasant and sharp with no ghosting.

Disregard my comments about ghosting, it disappears in daylight. I emailed Burris about the "randomish" settings this morning, and I'll update once I hear back. Hopefully fixable as I love this optic otherwise.

Just documenting as I said I would. Settings 1 and 5 don't work. Burris CS recommended the following:

Send it back to Burris, they'll give you a brand new one. I'd try to make them reimburse the shipping for ya.
