means the only time fogging is a real issue is when I'm getting on the freeway and need my best visual acuity to cross four lanes of gridlock to get to the car pool lane.
*In the morning, the garage is warmer than the house... I'm assuming because the water heater is in the garage, so the helmet shelf is warmer than it would be in the
house, but my breath is warmer than the garage.
Thinking I might try wearing a neck tube in the morning, and pull it up over my mouth and nose. That would keep my neck warm too. I think I have a drawer full of various tubes and face coverings left over from the recent unpleasantness.
Like GO I crack the shield a tiny bit at the bottom.
Chances are if you wear a neck tube (or balaclava) over your nose it will only make the fogging worse (especially if you use glasses).
I've always thought a tube with mouthpiece like snorkelers wear, that runs out below your helmet would be the cat's meow. Breath into the mouth piece and the air exits below the helmet., nowhere near the inside of the face shield.
Maybe you can 3d print one and attach a piece of 1/2" fuel line. Let me know if my theory is right.
There is truth in all that.
