Electric The Electron Goggles Starting at: $282.00 Electric’s new flagship goggle is changing the game. Instead of changing the lens to account for different lighting conditions. You can simply push a button and get the convenience of three different lens tints. You get a range of 46%, 31%, and 15% VLT allowing you to have just the right tint for any sort of weather. The goggles are powered by a small control module connected to the strap. The module is small, light, and testers were surprised that they did not notice the module at all while wearing the goggles. In typical Electric fashion these goggles feature a large fit for great peripheral vision and comfy 3 layer face foam. Testers appreciated the new technology especially on a day when the morning started out overcast, but cleared a few hours later. It was easy to change the tint of the lens without worrying about if you brought a replacement and fumbling around in the snow or on the chairlift trying to swap lenses. This is an elegant solution to a long standing problem in the goggle industry.

Electric EGG Goggles Starting at: $169.20 A new product for Electric this year, based on the well reviewed EG2. With classic Electric style the EGG comes with “more lens, less frame.” Testers love this look and the greater field of vision it provides while weaving through trees and crowded early season slopes. With all the features you would expect in today’s goggles, such as comfy 3-layer facefoam, anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings, helmet compatibility, etc. The EGG is a fantastic choice for all riders looking for a no compromises, reliable high end goggle.
