Parweld XR915 vs SWP 3037

[ST162]

Help me decide... Parweld XR915 vs SWP 3037

Anything bad to say about either of them ?

If they are both fairly equal in performance then I will be going for the SWP 3037 (Weldequip) because the free gauntlets appeals to me.

This will be my first helmet, so I am completely clueless.

does the parweld not have a grinding mode

The SWP 3037 seems to be available in various guises. The models shown below all share the same shell and are in the same price bracket, so it's a good bet that it is the same helmet with different branding.





SWP 3037.
BritArc.
Siegen Tools. (S0825.V2)
Xcel. (SWPEX3037)
LCD Electronic.


Decision made: SWP 3037 via Weldequip.

I bought the Parweld xr916h, it has a larger viewing area than the 915, it has grind mode, and I think works at lower powers than the 915 if that's an issue. I bought it for when rolling around under cars, to save damaging my speedglas, that I keep for best and going out

It is only a few quid more than the 915 and comes in blue red white or silver. If you see the 2 together you would defo have the 916 over the 915 for what extra it costs. I have had it about 5 moths and it is comfy, doesn't fall down when lifted up, (like my miller elite did), and works well.

I can't comment on the swp as I haven't had/used one, but if weldequip sells them there can't be anything wrong with them.

Mmmm... Parweld XR916H. I have to say the one in red looks tasty and I would never get lost in a crowd while wearing it.

Also, it has four sensors which I think is rare for a helmet in that price range.

I have got the red one.
