    In other words, Nelson, don’t attempt it.

    Research before experimentation is usually beneficial.You avoid reinventing the wheel.(And losing a flashlight.).Shining the lenses while Earl isn’t wearing them would answer the question without irritating Earl.

    I’ve heard there are some lenses that will turn dark even behind a windshield, but imagine they are pricey..I got a pair of Rx single-vision sunglasses just for driving. Pricey there too, but I wanted polarizing.

    Visualizing the consequences before the act would help many in life.

    Hey, I’ve got a UV flashlight in the car. It’s used for hunting scorpions at night.

    I dunno. We had pictures taken and the flash turned my glasses dark. Looks as if Hubby married a blind woman. Nothing wrong with doing so, but I’m not – unless I’m looking for the mayo in the back of the fridge.)

    We have had to hide the flashlights in our house. The grandkids, especially the 4 year old, love playing with them.

    I don’t mind that. Batteries can be replaced.The little one, however, has torn every flashlight apart to see how they work ( I assume ) and totally destroyed a couple of them in the process of “making them light up again”.

    I did try giving them a couple of cheap disposable ones. Unfortunately, they drove mommy and daddy crazy with those and they mysteriously disappeared – just like Nelson’s flashlight will soon do.

    Nelson’s cellular phone has a light in it.

    “Transition” type lenses do not work inside of a car because of the UV treatment of the windows. My solution to that is a pair of transition glasses that have the custom fitted magnetic overlay that is dark like a pair of sunglasses. I keep the overlay in my car so I can use it when I am driving in the sunshine.

    Now here’s where I would have fun with my answer. I’d tell my grandchild that the flashlight would turn my glasses and eyeballs purple.

    I had the transition lenses many years ago. After about 6 months they quit darkening except in cold and snowy conditions. I hope they’ve improved them.

    I absolutely love the dark, I was never scared of it as a child.When I’m exposed to sudden bright light, I hate it!xxx

    @JanCinLV" “Transition” type lenses do not work inside of a car because of the UV treatment of the windows.".Glass doesn’t transmit UV worth a flip.During the first atomic bomb test, most of the scientists were down in the bunker using some sort of periscope to protect them from the blast..One of the scientists had done the calculations and realized most of the light would be in ultraviolet which is blocked by glass so he sat outside in a jeep to watch the action through the windshield.(and no, he wasn’t killed)
