I think they actually took my advice at Timberline as one of my only complaints with the older style was the fact that the lens was flush with the end of the unit which caused some glare problems in certain lighting conditions.
I used to make a little hood for it to prevent this.
They have the lens recessed fully and I can't see any glare problems at all with my new one.

also the Dot/circle is sharper and more precise and seems brighter. All in all it's much clearer and nicer to use.
