nerdcore · 08-15-2011, 01:02 PM

You need a new sn, Sean.

So being procaps/dxs, can you enlighten us with facts?

Sean@smartpartswest · 08-15-2011, 01:32 PM

I have had this one for so long.. and another one before Smart Parts. So hard to change again.. lol.

Well, the dual pane thermal lens is on the box of the grill lenses shipping now. I took that picture. So, it would seem that it is coming and from here it is a matter of time.

dual pane sure why not. i don't ever have an issue with my lenses fogging up but i'm sick of how fast the coating on the lenses come off so fast. especially the mirrored lenses.

$hmidy · 08-15-2011, 05:47 PM

mirrored is terrible

straptrams91 · 08-15-2011, 07:20 PM

hope they fix the outer coating on these new lenses. get hit once with the old ones and the clear coating begins to spiderweb within a week or two if it comes into contact with any form of moisture. the old ones fell apart so easily. if it wasnt for the ****ty lenses id still be wearing a grill.

This is good news for indoor practices. My Grillz continuously keeps fogging, while I never had problems with my old JT thermals.

Awesome. time to pick up that extra set of grillz now

I WILL buy Grillz AND Profilers if they release dual pained lenses! 2 of my favorite masks but the lenses never lasted after one hit to the lens. i also love Procaps products!

This. I loved my Grillz, and I still think they are the best looking masks on the market, but I got sick of having to replace the lens after 1-2 practices. Fogging was never an issue (probably because the lenses never last long enough for it to become one) but the complete lack of any sort of durability is what made me switch to proflex's. Having to swap lenses 1-2 times per season is acceptable, swapping lenses every other practice just got too expensive.

If you can fog up a profiler lens you are too fat.

Not really. I fog up my Grillz if we play two points indoors. Simple physiology.

Reloadro · 08-19-2011, 01:05 PM

i hope this happens soon; vforce is one of the few companies that realize that some people want an olive/tan mask. i tried the profits but they fogged uncontrollably. i4's are my favorite mask as fas as aesthetics, but unfortunately theyre too small for my face. ive stayed away from the single pane stuff, but if i could cop a profiler with a thermal lens, i'd do so immediately.

Grillz don't use Profiler lenses, do they, fatty?

Nope, but Grillz would likely follow right behind.

And I guess you don't play hard enough to fog your lense.

Booyahkai · 08-19-2011, 09:36 PM

I guess their quality went down after the years. I have a couple single pane profiler lenses from 2004 (brand new) that I just opened up after 7 years of sitting in a box. Hasn't fogged up on me yet.

well the lens also isnt protected like other masks. dye/proto is really good at this. you can lay the mask down, roll it around on a table, but the lens doesnt touch the table. vforce though, you lay the mask down, maybe tip it over, its gonna destroy the lens.
