The Dialed Archery USB-C Optic Light provides rechargeable fiber-optic pin illumination for compatible Dialed Archery bow sights. Purpose-built for Dialed MAG scope systems, this compact sight light helps improve pin visibility when ambient light isn't sufficient to properly illuminate the fiber optics. With three adjustable brightness levels, weatherproof construction, an oversized power button, and a 30-minute automatic shutoff, it offers a convenient upgrade for hunters and target archers who want consistent control over their sight-pin brightness.
Unlike the original Dialed Optic Light, which uses replaceable LR621 batteries, the USB-C version features a rechargeable power system and includes a charging cable. Designed for compatible PRÜF, STRIKE, and ARXOS sights, it provides a dedicated illumination solution without relying on a generic aftermarket sight light.
Key Features
USB-C Rechargeable Power
The biggest upgrade to the Dialed USB-C Optic Light is its rechargeable power system.
Instead of purchasing and replacing small disposable batteries, shooters can recharge the light through its USB-C port.
This is especially convenient for archers who frequently practice indoors, shoot 3D events, or use their bow sight in changing lighting conditions.
The light includes a USB-C charging cable, making it easy to incorporate charging into normal equipment preparation.
Charging Note: Dialed does not publish a specific charging time, battery runtime, or battery-capacity rating for this model. Check the light's charge before each shooting session or hunt where illumination may be needed.
Three Adjustable Brightness Levels
The Dialed USB-C Optic Light features three brightness settings, allowing shooters to select the amount of illumination appropriate for the conditions.
Fiber-optic pins rely on available ambient light. In shaded timber or indoor shooting environments, the pins may appear dimmer than they do in direct sunlight.
The adjustable light provides additional illumination to the fiber-optic system when natural light is insufficient.
Being able to select between three settings is important because excessive pin brightness can create a distracting aiming reference, particularly when looking at darker targets.
We recommend using the lowest brightness setting that provides a clearly visible aiming pin without overpowering the sight picture.
Designed for Dialed MAG Scope Systems
The USB-C Optic Light is purpose-built for Dialed Archery MAGs, the scope platform used on compatible Dialed bow sights.
Rather than using an improvised mounting solution, this light is designed to integrate with the manufacturer's compatible sight components.
Dialed identifies the USB-C Optic Light as compatible with its PRÜF, STRIKE, and ARXOS sight families.
Compatibility Note: The light is not advertised as a universal accessory for all bow-sight brands. Confirm your exact Dialed sight and MAG configuration before purchasing.
PRÜF Sight Compatibility
The USB-C Optic Light is compatible with supported Dialed PRÜF sight configurations.
PRÜF is Dialed's adjustable sight platform, designed for archers who want preset aiming references with the ability to dial different yardages.
When the ambient lighting conditions make the sight's fiber-optic pins difficult to see, the USB-C light provides an additional source of illumination.
Compatibility should be confirmed against the specific MAG and sight configuration being used.
STRIKE Sight Compatibility
Dialed also lists the USB-C Optic Light as compatible with the STRIKE sight family.
For shooters who prefer Dialed's non-mover sight platform, the rechargeable light provides a dedicated option for illuminating compatible fiber-optic pins.
The brightness settings can be useful when practicing at an indoor archery range or shooting in shaded environments where the fiber optics receive less ambient light.
ARXOS Sight Compatibility
The USB-C Optic Light is also designed to work with compatible Dialed ARXOS MAG configurations.
This allows shooters using the ARXOS platform to benefit from the same rechargeable illumination system.
Always verify the exact sight and MAG setup, including any replacement or aftermarket scope components, before installation.
30-Minute Automatic Shutoff
The USB-C Optic Light includes a 30-minute automatic shutoff feature.
This helps prevent the light from continuing to operate indefinitely if the shooter forgets to turn it off.
Automatic shutoff can be particularly useful during equipment setup, target practice, and other situations where the light may be left on between shooting sessions.
The original battery-powered Dialed Optic Light uses a 15-minute automatic shutoff, making the rechargeable version different in both power management and shutoff timing.
Oversized Power Button
Dialed equips the USB-C Optic Light with an oversized power button.
This provides a larger control surface for operating the light and managing its illumination settings.
For bowhunters, ease of operation matters when adjusting equipment in the field, especially when wearing gloves or working in lower-light conditions.
The larger button is a practical design feature that distinguishes this model from basic sight-light accessories.
Weatherproof Construction
The Dialed USB-C Optic Light features manufacturer-described weatherproof construction.
This makes it a practical accessory for archers whose equipment may encounter changing outdoor conditions.
Weatherproof should not be confused with a confirmed waterproof or submersible rating.
Weather Resistance Note: Dialed does not publish a specific IP rating on the referenced product page. Avoid submerging the light, and follow the manufacturer's recommendations for charging and care.
Consistent Pin Illumination in Low Ambient Light
Fiber-optic bow-sight pins collect available light to create a visible aiming reference.
When shooting indoors, under heavy tree cover, or in other low-ambient-light conditions, less light reaches the fiber.
The Dialed USB-C Optic Light provides additional illumination when needed, helping the aiming pin remain visible against the target.
This can be especially useful for archers who regularly practice on indoor ranges or shoot 3D courses with shaded target presentations.
Hunting Note: Regulations concerning illuminated bow sights vary by state, season, and hunting application. Confirm the rules governing electronic sight lights where you hunt. This accessory does not change legal shooting hours.
Purpose-Built Alternative to Generic Sight Lights
The USB-C Optic Light is designed specifically for compatible Dialed MAGs rather than marketed as a universal threaded sight light.
For owners of supported Dialed sights, choosing a manufacturer-designed accessory helps reduce uncertainty about compatibility and installation.
It also allows shooters to maintain a cohesive sight setup without modifying the housing to accommodate an unrelated lighting accessory.
Dialed Lifetime Warranty
Dialed lists a lifetime warranty for the USB-C Optic Light.
Warranty coverage and eligibility are subject to the manufacturer's current terms and exclusions.
For warranty questions or product support, consult Dialed Archery's official warranty information.
Who It's Built For
The Dialed Archery USB-C Optic Light is intended for archers using compatible Dialed MAG-based bow sights who want rechargeable, adjustable pin illumination.
It's particularly well suited for shooters who:
- Own a compatible Dialed PRÜF, STRIKE, or ARXOS bow sight.
- Prefer rechargeable accessories over replaceable button-cell batteries.
- Practice regularly at indoor archery ranges.
- Shoot 3D archery in shaded or changing lighting conditions.
- Want three brightness settings for managing pin visibility.
- Value an automatic shutoff to help conserve battery power.
- Prefer an oversized power button for convenient operation.
- Want a manufacturer-designed light for their Dialed MAG rather than a generic accessory.
- Need a weatherproof sight-light option for appropriate outdoor use.
For customers using the original Dialed Optic Light, the USB-C model is a practical upgrade if rechargeable power is a priority.

Which should you choose? The USB-C model is the better option for archers who want to recharge their light and avoid replacing small batteries. The original Optic Light remains an alternative for shooters who prefer disposable batteries and a lower purchase price.
Our Take on the Dialed USB-C Optic Light
At Extreme Outfitters, we look at sight accessories based on whether they solve an actual problem for the shooter.
Fiber-optic pin visibility is one of those things that can change significantly depending on the environment.
A pin that's easy to see in direct sunlight may become noticeably dimmer when moving into shaded timber or shooting indoors.
That's where a dedicated optic light can be useful.
What makes this new USB-C version appealing is the rechargeable design. Instead of keeping spare LR621 batteries on hand, shooters can recharge the light using the included cable.
The three brightness settings are another practical feature. Having the ability to adjust pin illumination matters because the brightest setting isn't necessarily the best choice in every condition.
Too much illumination can make an aiming pin appear overly bright, while too little can make it difficult to acquire against the target.
We also like the oversized power button and 30-minute automatic shutoff. Both make sense for a small accessory that's frequently used during range sessions and equipment preparation.
Another important advantage is that the light is specifically designed for Dialed MAGs. If you already shoot a compatible PRÜF, STRIKE, or ARXOS sight, this gives you a manufacturer-designed illumination option.
However, we'd be careful about treating this as a universal bow-sight light. Compatibility should be verified before purchasing, especially if the sight uses modified or aftermarket scope components.
We'd also remind bowhunters to check local regulations before using an electronic sight light in the field.
For compatible Dialed sight owners who regularly shoot in changing lighting conditions, the USB-C Optic Light is a convenient upgrade over the original battery-powered version.
Our recommendation is to verify your MAG compatibility, charge the light before use, and select the lowest brightness setting that provides a clear aiming reference.
