    The last time somebody here posted what they had left in the way of triton gear, it was mainly hundreds of cheap saw blades. Like thetrpile cuts which sell in Bunnings for $100 were about $25. Other than that, I think most of the stuff is gone.

    Do a search here for Hills Clearance centre and you'll find the relevant threads.
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    back to the original question, i grow a beard from time to time and i have no problem with the triton respirator with the beard or without the beard, makes no difference. as for using it with glasses, i find i have to open the visor or the beer goes all down my front.

    Thanks benchdog. The beard thing was a concern. I would hate to buy the respirator only to find that I had to shave it off. I haven't shaved in 17 years (see avatar for before shot) and I don't plan to start now...

    Thanks for the advice everyone. I picked one up at the local Bunnings yesterday for $197.

    Also bought a nice new Domino from Anthony.

    G'day Dylan
    Have had the Triton unit since they first hit the market (didn't have the funds for the 3M unit). I put up with the early feeder hose for a long time, but then got onto Triton, which had then turned to Hills, which has now turned to GMC. Two new owners later (GMC, that is) then supplied me with the upgrade hose, helmet insert and battery pack top "FREE OF CHARGE". Hard to believe I know.
    But all is good, my battery pack is now showing signs of not holding charge and I get about 4 -5 hours.
    I have a full beard and have not had any problems with fitting of the dust skirt. I does a good job. Just remember to change your P2 filters on a regular basis and keep the pre filter clean.
    Best investment in saving my lungs.
    regards
