Who cares if you can’t set up your new computer, change a flat, or make toast without starting a small fire? The Electric Technician Sunglasses’ color-fade frames and classic rectangular styling make you look mechanically adept and tech savvy.

- Grylamid frames are strong and lightweight
- Stainless steel hinges operate smoothly
Bottom Line: Now if you could just figure out how to set your alarm clock…
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

I'm a runner, but not a goofy runner. I like to look cool when I run which is hard when I'm squinting or wearing silly running shades. These glasses hold my face, even while I'm running and sweating AND they are sick looking. Bottom line: Best shades I've ever owned. Highly recommend
Not so good. Steeze? Kinda.

I bought these specs after owning a few pairs of Electric Technicians. I wish I would have bought the Techs instead. Theses glasses feel cheap. The first pair I bought I returned because everytime I opened them they creaked and sounded like a lense was about to pop out. No dice on the second pair. These make the same sound. I have a $15 minimart pair of shades that feel like they are better quality.
PS- I love the Technician glasses. Next time I get some cash that's where my $$ is going.

BCF's review seems to be discussing a model other than the "Technician" product shown here. Clarification needed.
Does anyone no the lens size for these pair of sunnies?? thanks

The height of the frame is less important than the width of each lens, the width of the nose piece, and the overall width of the frame at the temples. Other brands like Smith list full sizing information so that folks with wide or narrow faces can select appropriate models.
Can Backcountry provide detailed sizing for the Technicians?

I can't find exact dimensions, but if you go to this link: http://www.electricvisual.com/technical-information/
It will show you the definition of an 8-base frame and size category 1 (the lens and frame is approximately 1.5" tall)
Hope this helps a little!

I have the Black Clear Fade/Grey ones. I like them a lot. They’re comfortable enough to stay on for most the day without hurting my ears or cramping my nose. Plus they fit my face really well and have that cool, old school, leather jackets and greased hair look. I use them when riding my motorcycle and even under the helmet they stay pretty comfortable. Haven’t had a chance to take them snowboarding yet, too cold, but I’m sure they’ll live up to their reputation. Just got the BSGs with auto-tint, love ‘em too.
SWEEET!!!

Nice stuff! The black gloss rocks! Only one minor problem with shades: One of the hinges creaks
just a little bit,but most sunglasses do that
until they have been used a bit. They are very light and comfy. These,like most electric sunglasses,ROCK!!! (The ec/dc is awesome,too!)
sweet a** shades
