Hey all,
I've read a few threads discussing the above masks with the exception of the Bohler (one thread with no replies here: https://www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum/threads/bohler-guardian-62f.107098/) and the first two seem to come highly recommended, but has anyone tried both (or all three)?
I'm a home gamer, not a professional, but I've become mistrusting of my R-Tech XXL mask after the first ADF died in under a year (similar fault documented here by others) and the replacement still seems finicky which means I occasionally blind myself (at least there's no arc eye!) and get thoroughly cheesed off with the thing; plus it tends to turn itself off all too quickly leading to the "I thought it would go dark but actually it just turned itself off and I didn't notice because I was already wearing the mask" moment
Thoughts? I really like the look of the A50 but the price puts me off a little.. it's only my eyesight, right?
Lastly - anyone know if they can all take cheaters? None of the descriptions I can find mention it.. I already wear glasses (astigmatism), so glasses+cheater safetyglasses+mask seems like overkill!
Thanks
Aaron
