        Sorry but the fan system is going to be specific to these goggles, although it 'may' be possible for enterprising people to adapt it, I don't think it will be very easy, or look as good. Let's be honest, most fan systems leave a LOT to be desired. I've never been happy with any fan solutions before.

        The single pane lenses are high quality. I wanted to be at least equal to V-force single pane lenses. I prefer single pane lenses also. I was 'forced' into making thermal lenses because so many people want them, but I'll be wearing the single pane ones.

        This lens change system has, again in my opinion, a few significant advantages over the Vforce system. Details will be shown/released at World Cup (end of October).

        The lens to me is the most important starting point of any goggle. I designed a quality lens first, then the rest of the goggle around it and how to keep it clear, in place, and working to the best capabilities.

          Yeah, me too. I guess I'll have to wait and see what you have come up with. I assume it will either be part of the new goggle system and released at the same time?

            It will be an accessory and released a bit behind the goggle system, but it is coming.

              Manike, vforce goggles rarely fog and they're only single pane... I know you're releasing a thermal version of goggles, but that's one thing I DON'T like about my JTs... will the single-pane lens be effective at preventing fogging, or do I really need to use the thermal version?

              Keep in mind... I play in Florida humidity/heat, and in winters 40 degrees + tons of humidity

                I haven't played in Florida for a while... hopefully I will be at World Cup!

                I've been playing in New Jersey heat and humidity which is aweful.

                My benchmark for single pane lenses is the high end V-force lens. I believe we can at least equal it with our single pane lens.

                As noted, I prefer the single pane lenses and I never settle for second best. I think a lens you can take out and clean easily is a great thing, that's the one downside of thermals. You have to be more careful about the inside pane.

                  Good choice, I like it!

                    Manike, you've nearly sold me on it and I've never even touched one...

                    If you're at Cup during the NCPA division, I'll be the one coaching FSU Paintball. I'll come take a look for you.

                          Those are nice looking. Maybe i'll hold back on buying a new mask.

                              Are the lenses aspherical?
