I have a Triton respirator and am quite please with it.

Features:

1. Full face mask;

2. Ear protection;

3. Dual filter, first one is washablble, second one contains two
replacable cartridges;

4. Shroud improves seal around the neck;

5. Flow meter helps you figure out when to charge the battery.

Concerns

1. Some people say the hose from the fan on your belt to the helmet is a
bit stiff. Triton says they are going to fix it. I haven't noticed a
problem.

2. The battery is internal to the fan unit, the only way to charge it is
to plug the fan unit in. I would prefer removable battery packs so that
I can charge one while using another.

3. The latches that hold the fan unit together are molded plastic. I've
already bent the "hook" part of the latches by misaligning them
slightly. This was easily fixed but I would prefer metal latches.

All in all I am pleased with the products performaned and am very glad I
got it. I wear glasses and this beats a mask or face shield hands down
for comfort and lack of fog. The price was also a lot nicer than other
units that I've seen.
