Would anyone recommend buying a new helmet off ebay ?
Now, i dont mind paying 50-70 squid for one from a certain person off here, knowing its going to do its job well.
But can i get one for 30-40ish off ebay (CE marked of course) is it gonna do the same job ???

hi,
where would I get a Parweld XR914 for under £45 please?
I was looking at the one from MM as there's a 'VAT free' day coming up but it's still twice that price...

You won't ever get Arc eye from a bad welding helmet........ Arc eye is caused when the UV physically burns layers of skin off the eye ball itself. Imagine sunburn, but on your eyes. As long as you have a cover over your eyes, be it a welding mask or safety glasses(even clear ones) you won't get Arc eye.
Hi,
thanks for the link Wozzaaah.
Simondrains, how much was the Sif Lite please?
If it costs more then we should expect it to be better...
but I'm on a limited budget and I've spent far too much recently!

Try this guy http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370016223380 got my Parweld for £40 delivered.Thought I'd add to this thread rather than starting a new one.
Could anyone tell me where the cheapest place to get a Parweld XR914 or a Sif Lite?
DIYwelding have the Parweld for £54.94 delivered or have found the Sif Lite on ebay for £45.50 delivered.
Likely to get any better deals than this?
Is one much better than the other, or are they both much of a muchness for occasionaly DIY?
