I have a small mig welder, I don't use it much these days, but it's a handy tool to have around the shop.
For about 20 years I have used it with a pipeliner type helmet, that fits me well and allows my head to get into some tight places without disloging.
The problem is, it's not self darkening, having used a SD helmet, I can really see the benefits.
However, I recently purchased based on ebay a solar SD lens that fit's my old helmet perfectly.
Wow, is this nice to use!
It was very inexpensive, and from China (sorry) but works perfectly, instant darkening, no flash whatsoever. And the 'Off' shade is perfect for grinding.
Just thought I'd share this.
