After 80 hours of welding (SMAW PIPE) the lens just stopped working. The color of the arches is white rather than blue. It's fine for the hobbyist, but if you're a pro or want to get serious about welding, stick with the known brands. My Arcone Tradesman lasted 3 years. I wanted to try something new, but I learned my lesson.
