Welding Helmet

[MarkRWinter]

Hi All
Many thanks for help with my welder
I need a new helmet and got positive reaction to this type
It’s not the cheapest or most expensive
Any thoughts ?
Or brands I should avoid
Thanks for your time

I have a parweld...pretty good. I think the true colour ones are the way to go (so maybe check it's true colour).

I'd say the parweld isn't far off my 9100fx lense for clarity.

Just ordered the same lid today - was hoping to hear @MysterG impressions first but I am too impatient

Probably won't see any use until the sun reappears.

@Pigeon_Droppings2 It's the supposed optical clarity and side panels which convinced me to crack open my wallet.

Don't think you'll be disappointed.

It's a little heavier, but the adjustments are great and it's reasonably comfortable.
The view is very clear IMO, and having the extra side panels reduces the times I need to flip it up no end. So much easier to see and find stuff on the bench.

Having issues with condensation at the moment with the cold weather, but I expect that would happen with any mask.

I'm really pleased with it.

Having issues with condensation at the moment with the cold weather,

That's one of the reasons I upgraded to the adflo air fed.

I was trying to weld and wear a dust filter plus I wear glasses...got fed up in the end.
