ADE is introducing all new APOLLO PRO(RD3-030PRO). This ADE APOLO PRO is designed to fit any pistol/mounting plate/slide/optic cut with RMS/RMSC screw pattern/footprint.
Equipped with Solar Power that allows the red dot sight to continue to be powered when your battery is out. The battery life can last up to 50,000 hours depending on settings.
The APOLLO PRO is designed for ultimate convenience and performance. It remains powered on at all times and features an advanced auto-dimming sensor that automatically adjusts the dot brightness to match changing ambient light conditions. Whether you're in bright sunlight or low-light environments, the APOLLO PRO ensures optimal visibility by dynamically increasing or decreasing brightness as needed.
Powered by a single CR2032 3V battery, the APOLLO PRO eliminates the need for physical on/off or brightness adjustment buttons. The intelligent sensor takes care of everything, providing seamless operation and ensuring you're always ready for action.

Ade Advanced Optics first made its appearance in the firearms accessory industry by doing private label production for several Major manufacturers and retailers. During this period, Ade Advanced Optics began receiving requests from numerous customers for access to the affordable, high quality products that Ade Advanced Optics was capable of producing. By soliciting feedback from both clients and end users in 2010, Ade Advanced Optics was able to overcome the challenges a new company often faces when entering a global market and industry, especially one as competitive as the shooting, hunting, and outdoors industry.
----------------------------
Below are additional footprint about ADE footprints.
ADE, RD3-006 Huracan,RD3-009 Crusader,RD3-012 Delta, RD3-013 Bertrillium fit optic cut/plate that is compatible with Vortex Venom/Burris Fastfire/Doctor footprint. RD3-015 Zantitium, RD3-028 Ares fit plate(does NOT fit slide due to larger size) that is compatible with Vortex Venom/Burris Fastfire/Doctor footprint. Please note: Some aftermarket slides have a precise optic cut based on the curved edge/corner of Vortex Venom, one of the common slide manufacturers is PSA Dagger(with Doctor cut). ADE and other brand red dots do NOT have the same curve as Vortex Venom, therefore ADE RD3-006, 009, 012, 013 do NOT fit the aftermarket slide with CURVED vortex venom optic cut. ADE red dots with Doctor footprints only fit squared optic cuts that accept standard Doctor Footprints.
ADE RD3-018 Spike, RD3-021 Nuwa and RD3-030 Apollo fit optic cut/optic plate that is compatible with shield RMS/RMSC/Deltapoint Pro footprint

ADE Apollo RedDot
Certainly, the price is right. The only negative is the inability to adjust the brightness of the red dot. I like the two white dots on the rear sight. Easy to pick up target.

Good quality red dot sight with always on and solar power features
This red dot sight is a good quality sight with nice features. There is no on/off button or brightness button, it's all automatic. So far, the always on and auto-dimming features are working nicely. The solar power charging feature's something I'm not really sure about. I've never had a sight with these features so hopefully this sight won't disappoint me. It seems well made with a clear view window. So far I'm satisfied with the quality and performance of this sight.

Not as excited about this ADE optic as I am about others. Works fine, just not quite up to par.
Right out of the box I like the compact size of the RD3-030 Apollo-Pro and the solar power, but the square design is just too chunky for me and the solar panel could easily be contoured with the shape of the optic. Just weird, square and thick all around. The always on dot is adequately bright but there is some light bleed on other parts of the optic so it's not totally clean and is a bit distracting. With all that said, it is pretty inexpensive and you really get what you pay for in the optic game so for what it costs I think it's ok. Mounted up ok for me and seems to hold zero at least so far.

Good red dot
Simple to install, looks great on. The only complaint I have is that sometimes it takes the sensor a little while to register. But it’s a good budget friendly choice.

Could be better with a better pattern
I love this little guy for the solar panel on top. It runs without a battery and is motion activated. I would say that the motion activated part like the rest of their lineup i’ve used (three including this one) all are VERY sensitive to any movements. The solar panel really makes up for this though. No information on whether or not the battery gets charged from the panel whilst outside. I doubt it. It’s got a better body than some other red dots offered by ADE. They seem to be getting a foothold on the market as a new company though. The lens on this and every other ADE optic I have looks glued in which I wouldn’t pass off as being a bad thing I suppose. But the glue job doesn’t look great. Looks better than if I would have had a pass on it with some hot glue or super glue for that matter but still doesn’t look super great. At this price point though is this really a concern? Function over form here as long as the form doesn’t impede the function. The dot is very tiny which is nice when aiming at rather small objects but I do prefer a larger dot personally if this was mounted on a real pistol or something. Even a rifle. We have this mounted on a Daisy red ryder though so it’s plenty good enough for what we used it for. I can recommend as long as you’re aware of some of it’s downsides as it’s really not a horrible optic. It’s not the greatest one out there either. Lastly, the screws to adjust the position of the dot leave a bit to be desired. I don’t really need it to click in place every 1/16th turn or anything but yeah, the experience feels cheap and easy to move once you back the left to right screw out since it sticks out of the body pretty far. I’ll be keeping my eyes out for ADE though to improve on their quality in the future even if it comes at a price difference.

Windage and elevation screws don't click
Shoots good, holds zero, mounts nice, fit directly on my p322. Just wish the adjustment screws clicked

Ditto - Doesn’t fit Sig P365XL mount Completely
Great Red Dot, shoots with complete accuracy and clarity. Rough point is I had to also shave about a ~1 millimeter x 2 millimeter of the back edge to make it fit. Instructions don't mention you have to have gunsmith skills to mount it...Recommend the manufacturer remeasure for complete fit or remove advertised compatibility for the different models. Just for reference I purchased the Sig Sauer P365XL this year, latest model.

Fits hellcat pro
Mounted very easily to my Hellcat Pro. Dot is more or less clear (I have astigmatism apparently). However I have a slight gut and man oh man do the angles on this feel sharp after a while. You can get a good cowitness with these if you have the removable plate on your hellcat. I did about an hour of shooting, it appeared to hold zero. For the price, it's pretty good.
