Good concept, but it would be better if it changed more quickly from dark to light as the eye glasses do.
It will be interesting to see how it is received by motorcyclists.

I read a report on the shield that said it did change very quickly. Hell, if they can make welding eye protection that changes instantly, why not a face shield. I use magnifying stick on lenses on the bottom of my shades, so I can read my tank bag map. Hope they make a photo chromatic shield with a magnifying bottom strip. I'm very hopeful. :|

"buff boy" - that's great! :lol:

I was thinking "Well here is the definitive Type-A personality."

It kind of brought back memories of Duane's post on "Vagueness", too!
