The main advantage from a Patrol to a Micro is size. The micro has all the reliability and battery life of the Patrol, actually a little better with Micro, but smaller. The micro is equally at home on top of an AR, shotgun, or pistol. My T-1 was on a Mossberg 500 for awhile and it's a WICKED home defense weapon.

I love the Comp M4's, but after using a Micro, I'm ruined. The Patrol does offer a few solutions to mounting and covers, that the Micro doesn't.
Meaning, you get the T-1 or H-1, then have to get a mount, if using it for an AR, and lens covers. If your wanting to mount it on a shotgun, the factory supplied unit works well, provided the shotgun has some sort of rail.
The "bikini strap" on the Micro sucks, I concede, but there are some aftermarket options out there to make up for it. Tango Down makes one, I think.
Aimpoint Pro: The hot, well endowed drunk chick you pick up at the bar and take home. A sure thing.
Micro: The hot, yet classy girl you take home for Sunday dinner to show Mom.
Both are GREAT! One just requires a little more time and attention....but MORE THAN WORTH IT!
