    I would say there is no difference among 1.5 Transitions lenses ( doesn't matter which generation) and clear 1.5 lenses. I have also experience to dip them in 1.6 lacquer with the same settings as for 1.6 lenses (Newton rings will appear then).

    About the temperature - it is quite tricky to measure it (thermo papers are used often for this purpose), but the default settings for both would be 70 Celzius degrees - the real temperature inside the tank, no the temperature of the spiral that is usually shown on display.

    When the lenses are sticky from dip coating machine, increase the temperature.
