I don't wear them when the temps are above 25F or so, but under that, especially when it's below 10F, they are well worth the cost to me.

I have found a way to ride with goggles without fogging and did not have to buy the more expensive Turbofan. However, I am now working on a way to eliminate the exposed skin I have below the goggles....
· I began riding my bicycle to work. I had put the goggles on inside my house over my glasses.

· I turned the fan on low power. Within 5 minutes the inside of the goggles became fogged over.

· All during this time I was pedaling, but not very hard, making about 12 – 14 mph.

· I then turned the fan to turbo – I could hear the change in frequency. There was no change in the fogging inside the goggles. After about 15 more minutes I had to stop and take off the goggles and put them away because the fogging was so bad it was very poor visibility and was getting potentially dangerous.

· Within 30 seconds my glasses cleared up and I could see. There was very slight fogging on my glasses when I stopped, but this cleared immediately once I began moving again. My glasses are treated with Cat Crap.

This is not the performance I was expecting. I paid a lot for these goggles and was hoping they would protect my eyes from the cold and allow me to see...
