Spark Lens was Daigo Madoka's transformation item, he used the item to transform into Ultraman Tiga. Later in the movies 'Ultraman Tiga: Final Oddessy' and 'Ultraman Tiga:Gaiden' different versions of the Spark Lens appeared bearing very different designs from each other and the original. Daigo gained the Spark Lens immediately after merging with the Tiga statue, which appeared in his jacket after he transformed back. It is apparently his by default as the reincarnation of Tiga he was destined to receive it.
Unlike the Beta Capsule which required the push of a button, the Spark Lens were activated by pressure on the grip. At times, Daigo has transformed without it as he was under emotional stress or during a great fall, such as when he first transformed into living light and merged with the Tiga Statue. At the end of the series, the Spark Lens disintegrates.

- Black Spark Lens
- Users : Dark Tiga
- Black Spark Lens is Daigo Madoka's second transformation item. Black Spark Lens is a dark version of Spark Lens. Which allow Daigo to transform into Dark Tiga.
- As Dark Tiga is implied to be the original form of Tiga, the Black Spark Lens is implied to be a copy of the Spark Lens' original form. What became of it is unknown as Daigo is never seen transforming again. The most likely possibility is that it became a new Spark Lens as in Ultraman Tiga Gaiden, Daigo's son recognized a past version of the Spark Lens with a glance implying he had seen it before. Regardless Daigo never transformed again.
- Appeared only in the movie. The Dark Spark Lens is a dark version of its light counterpart. As Tiga was originally a dark Ultra, it stands to reason that this may have been the original form of the Spark Lens. When gripped tightly and raised to the sky the wing like appendages unfold, dark energy shines from it and Daigo will transform into Tiga Dark.
- What became of it after the battle with Kamila is unknown, it possibly disappeared or may have turned into a new Spark Lens like the original given that Daigo's son recognized an ancient version of his father's device, regardless Daigo's days as an Ultra warrior were over as he never transformed again
- Kamila's Spark Lens
- Users : Kamila
- Tiga's former lover and leader of the Dark Giants possessed a similar item, although not called a Spark Lens it was used for the purpose and activated by a similar method. In human form Kamila transformed using a Spark Lens with a gold handle, the wings were diamond shaped with windows and the inner object was diamond shaped as opposed to round. Even though it bore more resemblance to the Light version of the Spark Lens it shined with the same dark energy as the Dark Spark Lens
- Tsubasa Madoka's Spark Lens
- Users : Tsubasa Madoka
- He saw what appeared to be the Spark Lens nearby. He picked it up and recognized it as the device his father formerly used, even if it was a bit different. Raising the Spark Lens to the sky, he transformed into Tiga, but not at his full height nor power. He was beaten around by Jomonoid, the monster, and his color timer began to flash much faster than his father's ever did.
- Amui's Spark Lens
- Users : Amui
- Known as the Bronze Spark Lens, it was seen in Ultraman Tiga Gaiden, this Spark Lens was used by Daigo's ancient ancestor, Amui, to transform into Tiga without assimilating with the Tiga Statue. Where as the other three were made of marble this one was made entirely of bronze with a red stone on the grip. The markings on the top that resembled Tiga's protecter but were red and resembled tribal markings.
- The device worked the same way the Dark and Light Spark Lens did, what became of it is unknown as well as it origins as it was just found in the mountains by a warrior who slew a monster. Its design and appearance imply that it is not the original Spark Lens so this device remains riddled with mystery. Unlike Daigo's Spark Lens which was gained by his merger with the Tiga Statue, Amu transformed by channeling the power of Tiga while the statue remained in the pyramid untouched.
