ESS CrossBlade One Naro Laser LPL-5 Red

The ESS CrossBlade One NARO Laser LPL 5 Plus Red is a specialised safety goggle developed for environments where exposure to multiple types of lasers poses a real risk. This NARO version builds on the well-known ESS CrossBlade technology, but goes a step further than the standard LPL 5 variants by offering extensive laser protection against both green and blue-violet lasers.

These goggles are designed for professional use, training and airsoft scenarios in which laser designators and laser pointers are increasingly being used.

Material and design

The CrossBlade One NARO utilises the proven Tri Tech Fit frame, which ensures a snug fit without pressure points. The frame offers extra protection around the eyes, while maintaining air circulation to ensure comfort and wearability during prolonged use.

The NARO lens features ClearZone Dual Flow Coated technology, which actively helps prevent condensation on the inside and protects the outside from scratches and physical stress. Thanks to ESSOPTICS technology, vision remains clear and completely distortion-free, even during dynamic movements.

Like other CrossBlade lenses, this model is compatible with ESS Crossbow, Crosshair and Suppressor frames.

Laser protection and safety standards

The distinctive feature of this version is the LPL 5 Plus laser protection coating, which offers protection against:

• Green lasers with a wavelength of 532 nm
• Blue-violet lasers with a wavelength of 405 to 445 nm

This means that this NARO version offers broader protection than the standard LPL 5 versions, which focus exclusively on 532 nm lasers. This makes the CrossBlade One NARO particularly suitable for military and law enforcement applications, but also for airsoft environments where different laser sources are used.

The glasses comply with recognised ballistic and industrial safety standards:

• U.S. MIL Spec MIL PRF 32432A
• ANSI Z87.1 2015

Key features

• Extensive laser protection against 532 nm and 405 to 445 nm lasers
• Tri Tech Fit frame, comfortable fit without pressure points
• ClearZone Dual Flow Coating, anti-fog interior and scratch protection exterior
• ESSOPTICS lens, distortion-free and clear vision
• NARO configuration, optimised for professional use
• Compatible with multiple ESS frames, flexible use

Comparison with ESS CrossBlade LPL 5

Where the ESS CrossBlade LPL 5 offers protection against green lasers with a wavelength of 532 nm, the LPL 5 Plus NARO version goes one step further. In addition to 532 nm lasers, it also protects against blue-violet lasers in the range of 405 to 445 nm.

In short:

The LPL 5 is ideal for standard laser use, while the LPL 5 Plus NARO is designed for situations where multiple laser frequencies are present and maximum eye protection is required.
