product details are conflicting Amazon states the lens is plastic reviewer states it is glass, part of Amazon details state item is aluminium another part states it is plastic. WHAT IS IT DOES ANY ONE KNOW?

The ones I received were aluminum with a glass lens. The housing was very well made. I have only had failures at the socket (where there is a lot of heat). I now use LED bulbs that generate much less heat. This is a good setup and a good value.

I really don't know. However, after looking at it much closer it appears that the lens is either 'glued' or 'screwed' to the chip. The assembly is very fragile, i.e., one wire neede to be re-soldered...I don't want to mess with it anymore. If you would like I can send you a jpeg close-up for your perusal.

Lense is plastic. But thick and pretty scratch proof. I don't think it's convex, pretty flat on the face. I'm very happy with it though. Went in a '81 Kawasaki KZ750 and with a Silverstar bulb is a 1000% upgrade over stock sealed beam. I like it...

It IS an autofocus lens. I suppose some vendors just don't include that in the description. Hope that answers your question.

This appears that there is a couple of ideas to why such a price difference. 1 this could be a refurbished lens. 2 this could be a gray market lens that you will not be able to get the US Warranty for the lens. 3 could be sold by an unauthorized dealer. My experience, is to find an authorize dealer that you will get the proper support for warranty and technical support.

They're plastic lenses. My husband absolutely loves them. They're perfect for fishing with the polarized lenses.

I can't remember who supplied it but mine is. I would definitely contact the company that is selling it to be 100% sure. Also check your glass when you get it, my lens had a small crack or mold in it; had to return it.

The lens is glass, be careful to install it. Even though there is metal frame to protect the lens, don't drop it.

Yes it is. Actually, I'm thinking about selling this lens. I've used it a total of 2 times. I've found that I just don't use it. You may want to contact me.

Only the lenses are glass! All else is very hard palmer type plastic. I think it is a pretty good night scope for the price. You get what you pay for when it comes to night scopes. Don't buy it and expect perfection.

I don't understand why Yahoo is asking me about this lens. Can you tell me?

I really couldn't tell you. Last one I ordered from Amazon they sent me the wrong lens. I just ordered one thru ebay with no problems!

Frank, I think you hit the nail on the head...that is, it appears that way to enhance the fact that it's glass. The lens is actually very clear. Thanks for the question.

The lens is of good quality im not sure if it is glass or not. I believe it is. There are no instructions and there is no extra double sided tape to hold the glass down to the assembly. Things to consider before you start you repairs. I put a dab of elmer's to give it a proper hold. It seems to be working okay... but i would replace whatever you are going to replace soon because I think my lens got some mold on on it...

It's a hard plastic, the lens can't bring detach from the arm support,, I can't remember the weight cuz I'm not using it anymore,, it's not as bright as what I expected to be as my super dark living room needs a lot of lights.. Let me know if you need to know more bout the item,, sorry for late response,,

As far as I can tell, yes, the lens is glass, and not plastic. I have been pleased with this magnifier which I purchased to read hallmarks on sterling silver. It works well both due to the lighted magnification, but also because it is small and thus fits into tight spaces.
