The forum was set up for hobby welders so the members are probably not interested in professional grade kit designed to be used all day every day, there are other forums for professional welders

Well most of use can spell quality does that say anything?

It's only taken 6 pages for you to realise that it's an amateur forum where people have different priorities and requirements for value for money.
I must say you catch on fast.

I think it's time to add another name to my ignore list.
Though I will miss laughing at your posts there is no excuse for being so rude and condescending.

I can half agree, if someone's eyes aren't worth a couple of hundred quid ,I don't know what is

I landed on a Savage A40 in 2020 (looks like the A41 has a lot of superfluous LCD indicators and digital buttons that no doubt eat batteries) but I really rate the A40 as a hobby helmet. A big step up from the R-Tech helmet I had before in all features.

I have the warrior air fed and I use it at work

I'm more than happy with my Speedglass, and I don't sell them or stand anything to gain from anyone buying one.

Sometimes people grab a bone and run with it on here and it does get a bit daft and out of hand.

Ironically I bought my Speedglass off the Snap-on van 25 years back so that should stir the pot lol.

Most here understand buying the best works out in the long term, no different to buying only snap on tools. What varies is budget, sometimes the best is out of reach.

The G5-03 pro with flame decals. Priapism
I'd buy one just to caress and whisper to.

With that problem, a welding helmet would be the least of your problems.

I am a big fan of quality, but money is hard to make and therefore it is often very difficult to justify the huge price difference between a tool or piece of equipment that works and the best money can buy.

My my miller is getting on a bit, and I do keep looking….but need to go somewhere that stocks a selection so I can try them.

are you guys even welders ?

No, i'm a crane operator...

Okay folks that's enough on the insults. Stop it now. Thanks.

We all have different viewpoints and requirements so let's drop the Speedglass 'chat' please. This message is for all parties.
