I have have seen those masks with fans in them and I wanted to hear some opinions about them. Depending on these opinions I might buy one. Thanks!

^I assume that's your kid, that's awesome if so.
Anyways, I would agree about the mask fan...it really shouldn't be necessary if you have a good anti-fog lense. If you buy a mask that offers it, make sure you get a thermal lense as it will eliminate fogging. Or, you could get a V-Froce mask which is only a single-pane lense, but resists fogging better than any other brand of mask/lense on the market, thermal or otherwise. Basically, the mask fan is only for eliminating fogging, which isn't an issue on a quality mask/lense. |

^^Ageed^^, I have personally tried two different fans out and they do work but they are way too loud and buzzy. A heard of buffalo could stampeed you and you wouldn't hear them until they were right behind you. Go with the better antifog mask.

Thermal lenses all the way. Saved my life. When I would get deep in a bunch of vines and the mask started fogging, I would have to walk off the field. I would even wipe my lenses to try to stay in the game but it was unbearable. When I got the thermal lenses, I didn't have to worry anymore.

Anti-Fog lenses to not work.
You will want a Thermal Lens to combat fogging, the fans usually can't keep up. BUT, the fans are good for keeping persperation out of the goggle. I use both the thermal lens, and the fan and its a great combinitaion. |

Have you ever used a V-Force mask? They only use a single-pane(NON-thermal) lense, and have been proven to resist fogging better than any thermal mask on the market. So, not only do single-pane anti-fog lenses resist fogging well, they do it better than the next-best thermal lense! Try a V-Force and you will see the light! Down to JT masks! |

JT masks single-pane lense sucks, while V-Froce shows them how it is done...don't need 2 lenses when one done correctly will do the job.
But yes, JT single lense suck, while V-Force doesn't even offer a thermal lense yet never fogs...I know which one I'd buy(I already did). |

Thanks for not being mean, just insulting. I was speaking mostly from my expierience with several types of JT Masks, but I have also used several V-force Shields and have expierienced fogging with them as well. Not to be mean, but next time don't assume someone has or hasn't tried a product before you try to insult them. And by the way, this thread is about mask fans, thanks for keeping on topic. Its always nice to see a platinum member baggin on regular members, when we are always told the only way to become a platinum member is to be helpful and not to insult others... Edited by Menohl |

Who says one needs to stay on topic?
I have never used a mask fan or anti-fog lense/ thermal lense. I dont like playing when the temperature is cooler than my breath. Edited by Hades |

OK, so maybe you didn't think about what you were typing... Your breath would be aproximately 95-99°F? We're lucky to see that temp June-August here in Michigan. We play anytime the temp outdoors gets above 40°F... and if we dress properly, we are perfectly comfortable. Some of you warmer climate types are very spoiled! There is life outside of SoCal and South Beach... |

By the way... from what I've seen Zesty knows what he's talking about and he is generally one of the more polite and positive forumers, so lighten-up kids! Now if you get me up in arms, I'll rake you over the coals. It never occurred to me that a high end single pane lense could perform better than a double thermal. Shut-up and learn and don't be so thin skinned. Edited by Xspyderman |

One thing people on this site know me for, if any do, is that I really don't give a crap how many stars you have....I've told MODS where to shove it when I was only standard, so don't try and use my status as Platinum against me....I never asked for it, and no one's complained about me having it except you.
Thank you for the support Xspyderman, we have had disagreements but that doesn't mean I don't respect you. Basically, you love your A5Flatline and I disliked mine....that disagreement is good for everyone to see so we can discuss the good and and points of the barrel. Anyways, thanks for sticking up. Menohl wrote: Anti-Fog lenses to not work That is entirely incorrect. From this statement, I do not feel you know what you're talking about, and really don't care if I insulted you....I've seen you try and dish it out around the forum but when you get the worse of it you whine....spare me. So sorry to insult you, but I had to call you on your BS blanket statement which I quoted(crappily) above. No hard feelings, but I would respect you more if you weren't such a whiner. |

Funny how when i used a V-Force Mask it fogged... Hrm... As per the whining, i would have taken the PM you sent me seriously untill that is, i saw what you posted in here. Its odd how you want to call truce in PM and said the only reason you got pissy with me is you think i made a smart ass comment about you in some previous post, but here in thread you talk all tough and call me a whiner. Whatever bro, fact of the matter is, V-force single lenses fog just like JT lenses, its happened to me, and several other people i play with. |
