Review on πŸ”₯ Enhanced Welding Experience: ArcOne S240 10 Horizontal Auto Darkening Welding Helmet by David Blackstock

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good product! Security and protection

I'm not a professional welder! I'm a do-it-yourself guy who just loves to make things myself. I received this and installed it in my new carbon fiber CMR pancake helmet. I cut my teeth with a regular pop up hood. But the flare you get behind the lens sucks. Sometimes it is difficult to start swaging. So I switched to the pancake style and it's a huge difference. It's like I'm welding in high definition right now! I left this car lens in the sun for about 4 hours before mounting. I just wanted to give him a good load. After installation I set up my MIG machine and started laying the bead. This lens quickly darkens once the arc ignites. And it takes about a second to resume cleaning after the arc is gone. I tried putting the pancake helmet on while sanding but it kept going from dark to light. Reminds me of someone turning lights on and off. Sparks flew from the autoshadow. Anyway, I like this auto tint a lot more than my traditional shaded hood. I will never return!
