Bad weather and visors on motorcycle helmets don't really mix. When the humidity rises, the visor mists over. That's just physics. So far, the options have been to either try to wipe it or admit defeat and park the bike. Sure, some products prolong the inevitable, but if you have ridden a bike in weather bad enough, for long enough, you know that eventually all existing solutions fail, and instead of the road ahead, all you see is the foggy inner surface of your visor.

Providing clear vision in any weather is the VISIN Heated Visor Insert that will keep the visor mist-free for up to eight hours. The insert, designed and produced in the UK, has a universal fit, and can be fitted to any helmet. Powered by a multi-purpose, integrated power pack, VISIN is the first – and only – heated universal visor accessory designed specifically to provide bikers, snowmobile riders and other helmet wearers with unrivalled visibility in adverse weather conditions.

The exceptional performance of VISIN substantially exceeds the performance of the closest competitor products in keeping the visor mist-free. VISIN also has a higher light transmission level than other visor inserts, making it the only legal product of its kind in the market for both day- and night-time use.

The system consists of a visor insert, a battery pack/controller and a wire connecting the two. The conductive transparent coating of the visor insert allows electricity to pass across the film and instantly generate heat. This heating feature is what makes VISIN different from the competitors. On visors, the heat quickly clears any mist and prevents recurrence of further fogging – providing riders with a clear field of vision without the need to raise visors.

Providing a sustained mist-free field of vision for up to eight hours between charges, and functioning effectively without riders having to open their visors or even helmet vents, VISIN keeps riders dry, warm and safe – enabling them to enjoy the ride and focus on the road ahead with enhanced safety and comfort.

Whilst the system is active, power is continuously applied to the insert. There's also a boost function which lasts for 40 seconds and increases the power 2.5 times. This rapidly clears the visor in more severe weather conditions. VISIN operates in temperatures between -4°F and 140°F.
