I’m a welding student in college right now and I’m looking at the US Navy as an option. I’m told by many that the US Navy has done significant research in welding technology with regards to the nuclear sector. What jobs are out there, both in potions as an enlisted man and an officer. Truthfully, on the Navy website I can not find any welding careers.

With new researches in technology and the welding industry, newer and more advanced models of welding helmets have reached the industry and made its way to the hands of professional and non-professional welders. Welding helmets of various weights, designs and features are now available, and one brand that has had considerable attention for years because of its high quality, flexibility and resilience is Miller welding helmets.

Currently the most famous series of the brand include the new Performance Series and Elite helmets. The Performance series center on various welding applications, whereas the Elite series focus on heavy duty welding needs.

Miller welding helmets also come in interesting designs. You’ll hardly find plain helmet designs – most of them come in various colors and prints. Various magnifiers, fits and lenses are also available.

In terms of auto-darkening helmets which are recently gaining popularity due to their ability of automatically adjusting to dark and bright welding situations, the Inferno Digital Elite as well as the Joker Digital are also considered good choices. Both cost about $300. They both feature four modes and have a larger viewing area. They do not need to be recharged and weigh only 510 g.

For less serious welding activities, Miller offers its Pro-Hobby Series which is sold at a lower price in comparison to the auto-darkening Elite and Performance Series. For instance the Miller Black Pro-Hobby Auto-darkening helmet has a more conservative solid black look. It is a light-duty helmet that has a protective lens cover and two independent arc sensors. It costs less than $150 and with the same features as the Millermatic helmet that has a more modern and perky look.
