Does any one use this lense. I'm thinking of getting some goggles with this lense but I' worried that it is too light and that it will only be good in super flat light. How is it on like mostly cloudy days where there might be a little sun or when there are high clouds and it's not that dark. I was also looking at the pink iridium lense. How is it in flat light?

^yeah what he said... best lens for night, and flat light. Will be too bright under blue skies though. H.I. persimmon is a little darker. Haven't tried the pink yet though. If you already have something with a mirrored lens though, then you should get these for sure.

DONT wear them on a sunny day. i only wear mine on cloudy or snowy days. if you do wear them on a sunny day, you wont be able to see shit. i did that once and it wasnt fun having to squint all day.
