I wondered about one thing - the ad mentions that it "does not provide eye and face protection - please wear safety glasses." I like to wear a full face shield which does not seem possible with this respirator.
Also, it seems to use alkaline batteries instead of rechargeables.

#3If the Trend is too small...

>...forget the Aircap. Its even smaller; very close fitting. I've tried it and (IMO) its only use would be for sanding dust protection. The "shield" is a bit thicker than Saran wrap. No inpact protection whatsoever.

>I recently changed from the Powerstream to the Triton and like it much better. It actually feels lighter than the Powerstream, and this is strange as you are now wearing a hard hat. But the battery pack is mounted around your waist. I do not have the dust in my eyes and nose as I did with the Powerstream as well.
