Default Re: welding helmet

I use my good Miller at work where I do a good bit of welding but at home I use my Jackson which is not quite as good as the Miller but still a good helmet. Now I would not use the cheap Harbor freight for the simple reason the flash time it takes it darken or it my not even darken at all due to the low sensitivity they have. The ability to adjust the sensitivity and the darkening is essential since you wont be welding the exact same thing every time. If your welding light material it won't be as bright of a light so if it darkens to much you wont be able to see what your doing. Just remember in the end it is your eyes your protecting and what are they worth to you.
