Actually the Hurricane EOtech does not have real holo technology, it just uses a slightly different reflecting glass implementation than the usual single glass red dots -- but it is a red dot.

The cheapest option for a real holographic sight is the Bushnell Holo, but it looks nothing like an EOtech.

That being said, I have two EOtechs purchased from Huang (XPS and 556) and both have clear reticles with no noticeable ghosting or distortion as long the brightness is adjusted properly (as with most red dots you get lighting artifacts if you go full brightness in very dark conditions). At half the price of the Hurricane I was able to live with it.

The XPS also appears to be able to hold zero on my GBBR.
