Doesn't quite fit the profiler! |

| Review: |
Ok, so as for the noise and wire length, and the battery set up on the mask, no prob! Very quiet! So a 10 there.
FIT: (I uploaded a pic, mine is the one on the red wood table dated 5/18/09)
As you can see from my pic, the hard plastic fan does extend into the foam padding, so I'll give it a 7 for the fit.
FIX:
For a fix to the fit issue, you have to wear the mask loosely, as loosely as possible. To do this I recommend you wear a backward hat so your mask strap rests on top of the bill. This way you don't feel the pressure of the fan pressing into your forehead. When I do this, I can't feel a thing.
HEAT/FOG:
TBD, I haven't tested that yet. I didn't really get it for the fog though, because the thermal profiler lens is already anti-fog. I got it in hopes of the fans providing a slight breeze in the 80-90 degree weather I play in. I'll update the review when I find out how that goes...
OVERALL: Considering there's a workaround for the fit issue, I'll rate this product a 9/10, deducting a point for the fit. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I would not recommend this product with the V-Force Profiler as there is not 2.5 cm of space before reaching the foam cushion. BUT, if you have a hat to wear under your mask to solve for the fit issue, go for it! |
