Oakley came out with a heated prism goggle, looks pretty cool. Any Oakley vendors at the show?

I went to the show looking for another pair of oakley heated goggles, lots of 509 stuff but couldn't find oakley stuff. I ended up buying a pair at the oakley store at the WEM.

I my opinion the show was not that great. Alot less than other years. The only thing I got out of it was to see the new barryvox beacon.

the past couple years I ended up buying the purple and pink jogging pants and top for the wife, because it's the most comfortable outfit she's had to lounge around the house. She will likely make me buy her another set if snow and mud comes to Saskatoon.

People keep saying this, but from what I'm told by a co-worker who also works at Northlands is that the number of vendors was the same, but they expanded the floor space by 1 hall this year. The first hall wasn't set up very well compared to the larger one and I think that through people's perceptions off a bit.

If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay for them Matt?

Does anyone know the name of the sick led light that was in the same booth as the hand chainsaw - I got a buddy that's kicking himself that he didn't buy one at the show

315 + tax for the prism iridium lense. My other heated pair does not have the iridium coating but it is a prism lense. They were 260 or 280 I cant remember which.

I bought one too..it is smaller, cheaper, brighter, also rechargeable, also go pro compatible....I told the lady at the Frankensled booth the same and she said she couldn't do anything on the price...so I found the smallest dealer/booth that was selling the other ones and bought it from them.

The Frankensled is rechargeable and also GoPro compatible. Don't know about price comparison. I got mine a couple years ago and it is still a great light.

I am not doubting at all the quality of the Frankensled Light. I went to the show with that on my list of things to get as there are a couple in our group. I have a pelican light, 700 lumens and not rechargeable, which is why I was looking for a new one. The Muntain X1000 was $40 cheaper and the frankensled light is 850 lumens where this one is 1000 lumens. My post was not a shot at Frankensled by any means, and hopefully nobody took it that way.

It's USB rechargeable - smaller - brighter - lighter - better features like going into dim mode when you drop it so you don't lose it - more lumens and the list will go on once you get one and compare the 2

I saw them but didn’t have a chance to stop. How much $?

I went to the show looking to buy a second frankensled light, the guy would not move an inch on price. Saw the smaller mountain x light for cheaper, looks like a good light. Honestly who is going to pay more for a frankensled if there is a smaller, cheaper, brighter and longer lasting light on the market.

Had the guy test out if the new light fits the frankensled battery and if it charged it.... sure does.

Didnt buy either as i was already to lightweight with other purchases..lol but would have bought the mountain x.


frankensled was $180 and mountain x was $150

Wife bought me one, so I didn't get all the details. How does that work...?
