Review on Advanced Balder Technology: Jackson Safety BH3 Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet (Black, Universal Size, 46157) by Max Rosengren

Revainrating 1 out of 5

One of My Best Purchases

Just got it Used my Jackson BH3 with my MIG and AC today and couldn't be happier. This is my first auto-darkening helmet, wish I had had it sooner. All settings; Sensitivity, delay and hue are continuously adjustable. I set both sensitivity and delay just above maximum and used 9 and 10 for the shadow. I don't have any after-effects on my vision so I'm assuming it's "tuned". I was able to see my puddles perfectly without needing extra lights like I've used on my other helmets. Couldn't be happier, the only downside I would like to point out is; For the price the Jackson should include a nicely padded helmet bag/sock. I spent half that sum on Harley helmets and got a good case to keep them. Now I keep mine in a Harley helmet bag but it could be bigger.

Pros
  • Design: Jackson Safety BH3 Auto-Dimming (ADF) Lenses offer the best optical clarity, light spread and angular response with a true rating of 1/1/1/1 (DIN EN379 Rating)
Cons
  • Big and Chunky
