Different Lens for E-Vent Mask

[slowreality]

Hiya,

just bought an Empire E-Vents mask and was just wondering if I’ll need another lens for it when it starts getting darker?

If so what will I need?

Yellow for overcast days! Helps make targets stand out! Good video here...

Yeah it is a good video, just thinking though as it gets more towards Winter etc. How do you see in the dark because it’ll be going that way stupidly early

Uhhh, fields tend to close before it gets dark. I don't think I've ever had this question before! Just a clear lens is fine.

One of each, clear, yellow and dark, they're easy enough to change as and when light conditions change. and to take into account the terrain you're playing in, Most places cease playing when it gets dark. For winter i'd go with dark or yellow as you may have a lot of low winter sun in your eyes but it also depends on the terrain as well, if there's lots of dark shadowy places n the game zone you won't be able to see into them as easily if you have a dark visor on.

I saw a lot of guys wearing Rainbow Lenses the other day, is this more for Fashion than practicality?

Also can I use ANY Thermal Lens or is their ones specifically for Empire Masks?

I almost exclusively used an amber lense my whole playing career. Good for light, dark everything. Occasionally I would buy a tinted lens, but just didnt have that clarity and would always end up getting rid.

At the mo I’m using a smoke Lens that came with the mask but looking to change etc. Just need to see what I’m looking for and then get the funds together

If by rainbow you mean iridescent lenses, they're just like mirrored sunglasses so they're just dark lenses looking out .No you can't just use any thermal lens, all masks are different and don't have interchangeable lenses, if you have Empire events for example, you need Empire event lenses, which i'm pretty sure are a thermal lens any way, even other Empire models will no doubt have different lenses.

Ah ok, so these are the right ones for my Mask? I’ll have to look for a Yellow one
