🔥 Lincoln Electric Viking 1840 Black Welding Helmet - Auto Darkening with 4C Lens Technology - K3023-3: Superior Protection and Precision in Welding Review

This helmet works very well and is comfortable. A brand matters when it comes to something as important as the ability to see.

As a novice welder, I tried to balance quality and price with this helmet. I've been using the helmet for about six months and it's been a great investment, perfect for my needs.

My old 1840 was 6 years old and died a week ago, read about the 4c lens and decided to use it again, couldn't believe how cool the new one is looks is, and the hat is really comfortable. Definitely a step up in performance and cost.

If you need a reliable lens hood, look elsewhere. Auto dimming didn't work after trying all the settings and asking my welding instructor to do his best. I replaced the battery only to get the same results. After reading some reviews, others had the same problem. I returned it and rushed to the Lincoln Viking Hood. Take care of your eyes and buy something better.

To be honest I didn't find anything I didn't like about this hood. I did a lot of research because a good cooker hood is an investment. Today was my first day of using it all day. I was impressed with the clarity of the 4C technology, the comfort of the headgear and love the external grind mode. In addition, a flashing light inside reminds you to switch back before continuing to weld. Fantastic hood all around. I love Lincoln Vikings!

Fast Safe Dimming also has a spark sensor for looping. It's terrible for the eyes. Clear as the sun. I have experienced. So grind, put on a helmet. And drop the welds.

Overall I am very satisfied with this device. My level of experience is an amateur welder. I mainly use this helmet for MIG welding. This replaced an auto-dimming Hobart helmet that I had to replace. Visibility before welding is good but you need a very well lit area to see with the clarity shown in the product photos. Adjustment between welds is very convenient. I usually wear it over a welder's hat. The combination turned out to be very useful. It will sit between uses for weeks and has no…

Just wanted to buy a new 4C lens for my old model 1840 and found that buying a brand new one is a cheaper alternative. I have to say it doesn't even look like the same lens hood. The new style headgear is more than comfortable and sits farther from the lens so my nose, which is larger than usual, doesn't smudge it. Flipping back to headgear no longer causes pain in the back of the head. The hue darkens very quickly compared to the old 1840's style. Potholders used to be a guessing game in dark…
