Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

I usually carry two pairs of goggles, one for bright light and one for low light. The low light ones are A Frame Persimmon lenses. They are ok in low light but not as great as I thought they would be. With an upcoming trip to somewhere dark (ish) and very snowy, I want to ensure I have the right tools for the job.
Oakley suggest the Persimmons are for low light and Yellows for very low light. Are the HI yellow lenses significantly better? I'm not terribly fussed about a one goggle fits all approach as this will be for a specific purpose and I have a set of goggles for brighter to the brightest days.
PS: how about lenses like pink iridium? Edit: pinks are out.

I got a totally clear lens for £24 which I use in my old A frames for night skiing and for very low light conditions. It still blocks UV light.
