lol thats completely overkill

i have an autodarkening helmet - theyre fantastic. mine isnt as posh as yours as its just got a single dial on the side for sensitity. they are a godsend tho, however i find i have to clean mine every few minutes welding because the screen gets all coked up with mig fumes.

tig welding is nice tho, but i spend 20 minutes replacing the lenses and giving i a good clean beforehand.

is that helmet always partially shaded or is it very light until it activates?
