Ryfoolz Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Hey all, so for the first time ever i had my trusty virtue vios fog on me this weekend, probably will just need to replace the lens but its got me looking at other options, has anyone used the AWT ARMOR WARRIOR TACTICAL G4 PROTECTION HELMET and if so how does it perform? any other recommendations are always welcome!

Lokai Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 If your looking to go full face/helmet i highly recommend getting a warq helmet. I fog anything and everything i wear but the warq has never let me down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an absurdly large head and I tend to just look at things and they fog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Prisce Posted January 28, 2019 Supporters Share Posted January 28, 2019 I have had great success with the Dye i4 masks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Druid799 Posted January 28, 2019 Supporters Share Posted January 28, 2019 The one you’ve put up I found the visor was too small for the distance it’s away from your face , admittedly it didn’t fog but you’ve a very small field of view through it so I cut a new larger one for mine from a motorbike visor then cut the mesh back and fitted it for a much better field of view .👍 PS the Warq helmets are nice but me personally thing the price is way too much once you’ve added the ‘extras’ it needs its silly money .😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the dye masks are the best option great FOV, ear protection and full face protection. If my goggles and face mask don't work well I am going to spring for one.

adox Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I'll be honest, everything an I mean everything will fog in some condition. Nothing is immune. The best solution are antifog air pumps which can be put in a counterweight pouch on a helmet. Patrolbase sell some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually did wear these in game for one day last year. These are probably 14 to 15 years old (the lens has been replaced quite a few times), and there was a fairly good reason why I dismantled them the other day.

Absoultely a key point Heads and goggles are all different. Forum threads can only give people’s personal subjective opinions, The only way to know the right ones for you as an individual is to try them on.

I have one of these best protection going. Been shot by snipers no problems only BB to get in was through vent holes in helmet at close range. Almost no foging ever without treating the lens and I am old and can fog anything. Did mod the head band to soft leather as original covered my forehead in black bits.

GeorgePlaysAirsoft Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Unless you go mesh or fans there is no such thing as universally fog free mask. A dye mask is the best place to start but you might need fans - clearly best on the market but i've seen them fog so there we go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musica Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 yea the price is outrageous for what its but unfortunately it seems to work bloody well and sure you can bodge something but to get it as light weight and mountable as this you'l be lucky. In my opinion this is for people who don't want to run a dye mask but don't want to run mesh and fog has defeated them in to opening their wallets. For me at the price I'd probably get the ess turbo fan goggles or a dye mask instead but if you've already invested in pricey goggles it might be better to try this.

OR buy a set of cheap ass fan goggles of fleabay AND butcher them to pieces and use the fan from them to ‘up-grade’ your own kit ? 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 It's just a battery powered aquarium air pump in a fancy case is it not? I've seen a bloke with one on and it looked llike he was a coffin dodger from Florida in need of pure oxygen at a glance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
