    They are expensive but worth it. Keep in mind that a good mask already costs you 100 euros.

    The system is amazing. the first few minutes you do not get used to it and it gives you the impression of not being useful, but after a while you get right to it. It presents all the info to you. You select it by simply pressing the button on the remote that you can put on the strap of the glasses, super comfortable.

    Highly, highly recommended the system

    They arrived at my house in three days. good service
