I looked around and saw a few threads about specific photochromic lenses, but I didn't manage to find any about direct comparisons between them. Has anybody owned multiple kinds and been able to compare them first-hand? I imagine transition times are all about the same and none are likely to be great for driving, but which seem to get darkest? How long do they last, really? Mainly, I guess I'm looking for some subjective feedback, which do you prefer, and why?
I have a few clear to black transitions and I really try to keep them out of the sun as much as possible when I'm not using them (I'm not sure if that helps with the "shelf life" of the lenses but I assume they do). I do think the transition time is pretty quick (a minute or less either way [usually less] as long as I'm getting a full dose of sun or a full dose of non-sun. I like the clear to black because I like things being completely unobscured/clear when I'm not in the sun.
