Neiko Solar-Powered Auto Darkening MIG/TIG Welding Helmet, ANSI Approved Lens


I have been a welder for some time, but always using the pre-darkened lenses.
I decided to get this auto darkening unit so I could use both hands.
After a day of welding my eyes hurt. So I changed the degree of darkening, in hopes that it would fix the issue,
but I really don’t know. Just how do you test your auto darkening system???
So I use it but keep the welds to small amounts.

Me gustó, es impresionante el funcionamiento del cristal. Rápido se obscurece y al dejar de soldar se aclara. Muy buen producto.

By looking at the picture I thought I was getting a large view lens. Turns out one-half is taken up with the solar-powered part.

I shopped around for a long time. This was a great deal. I have only used it once seems to be just fine. Love the larger viewing window

This may or may not be a good welding helmet, but it is
NOT
a 6 by 6 viewing area. You can even see this from the picture.
The only viewing area is the smaller rectangle you can barely see
because the picture is mostly reflection.
It may even be a “large” viewing area as lots of welding
helmets have less than 2″ high viewing area.
Most of the 6 by 6 area is solar cells and plastic.
It does not get clear, only the smaller area, maybe
2.5″ ish by 3.5″ ish turns clear.
BTW Amazon is not the only site mis-advertising this product.
If you see ANY site advertising a 6×6 viewing area on any welding helmet,
that is almost surely false. All auto dark welding helmets
need area for solar cells and electronics that do the auto dark function.
Maybe they will be the first to actually truthfully advertise it?
Amazon?
