Method Seven Resistance 2 HPS Crystal | Base 8 Glass Lens

Where the Resistance 2 HPS Sits in the Range

This is the wrap version. The standard Resistance runs a flatter lens. This one uses a Base 8 frame with deeply curved lenses, asymmetrically ground and polished so the edges do not distort. More coverage, no optical penalty. Lenses are mineral glass.

Choosing Between Method 7 Glasses for an HPS Room

Three things separate this from the rest of the HPS line. The Flash Silver coating attenuates light. That is what you want in a room bright enough to make you squint, rather than one you are only inspecting. The lens blocks peaks in the 660 nm red and yellow band, which is where sodium output piles up. It also cuts infrared heat alongside 100% UV. And the fit is built for long wear, with rubber grip nose pads and temple pads that hold on damp skin in a hot room. The frame is thermo-injected TR-90, designed in California and made in Italy, running wide for an average to large face. Safety rating is ANSI Z87+S.

Key Features

• Base 8 wrap, ground true: Deeply curved lenses, asymmetrically ground so the edges do not distort.
• Mineral glass with Flash Silver: Glass optics, with a coating that attenuates a genuinely bright room.
• Blocks the 660 nm peaks: Where sodium output concentrates, with infrared reduction alongside.
• 100% UV and IR reduction: Plus resin repel, anti-reflection, anti-fog and petrol mirror coatings.
• Nose and temple pads: Rubber grip at both points, so they hold through a shift in a hot room.
• ANSI Z87+S, TR-90 frame: Designed in California, made in Italy, cut wide for a larger face.
