Advanced Blue Light Blocking Protection: Shield your eyes from harmful high-energy blue light with cutting-edge lens technology that filters out dangerous wavelengths while allowing safer blue light through, reducing eye fatigue and enhancing long-term safety during extended welding tasks.
True Color 1/1/1/1 Clarity with Large Viewing Area: Experience superior visibility with a wide 3.93" x 3.66" viewing window and true color display, delivering crystal-clear optics (DIN 1/1/1/1) for improved precision in TIG, MIG, Stick (MMA), cutting, and grinding applications.
Ultra-Fast 4-Sensor Auto-Darkening: Equipped with four sensitive arc sensors for reliable ignition detection and lightning-fast reaction time (1/20,000 sec), ensuring instant shade transition from light (Shade 3/5) to dark (Shade 9–13) with adjustable sensitivity and delay controls.
Solar-Powered & Long-Lasting Energy Efficiency: Powered by advanced solar technology with a backup CR2450 lithium battery; converts welding arc energy into power for uninterrupted performance and eco-friendly operation.
Comfortable, Durable Design for All-Day Use: Features a lightweight pivoting headgear, breathable padding, and reinforced PP construction for maximum durability and comfort—ideal for professional welders and hobbyists alike; compatible with magnifying lenses for detailed work.
Q: What does the "1/1/1/1 Optical Clarity" rating mean for me?
Q: What does the "1/1/1/1 Optical Clarity" rating mean for me?
A: This is the highest optical rating possible. It means the lens has achieved perfection in four categories: Accuracy of Vision, Diffusion of Light, Variation of Luminous Transmittance, and Angle Dependence. In simple terms: No distortion, no blurriness, and a perfectly even shade from corner to corner of the extra-large viewing screen.
Q: How big is the viewing area compared to standard helmets?
Q: How big is the viewing area compared to standard helmets?
A: This helmet features a massive 3.93" x 3.66" viewing window. This is significantly larger than standard helmets (which are usually around 3.6" x 1.6"). This gives you excellent peripheral vision, making it safer to move around the shop and easier to see your workpiece setup.
Q: Does this helmet have a green tint?
Q: Does this helmet have a green tint?
A: No. It uses True Color Technology combined with Blue Light Blocking. The view is a natural color (grey/blueish tint), allowing you to see the red heat line and the weld puddle definition clearly, rather than the muddy green wash of older helmets.
Q: Why do I need 4 Arc Sensors?
Q: Why do I need 4 Arc Sensors?
A: 4 sensors provide maximum reliability. If you are welding out-of-position (like under a car) or around obstacles (like a roll cage), a standard 2-sensor helmet might get blocked, causing it to flash you. With 4 sensors, the helmet will detect the arc from any angle, ensuring you never get flashed.
Q: Can I use this for Plasma Cutting or Oxy-Acetylene?
Q: Can I use this for Plasma Cutting or Oxy-Acetylene?
A: Yes! Unlike basic helmets, this model features a Low Shade Range (DIN 5-9).
Set to Shade 5-8: Perfect for Plasma Cutting or Oxy-Fuel cutting.
Set to Shade 9-13: Perfect for TIG, MIG, and Stick welding.
Note: Ensure the internal switch is set to the correct range before you start.
Q: Is this helmet sensitive enough for low-amp TIG welding?
Q: Is this helmet sensitive enough for low-amp TIG welding?
A: Absolutely. The combination of 4 Sensors and adjustable sensitivity makes this helmet ideal for TIG welding, even at very low amperages where other helmets might flicker.
Q: With the large glass, is the helmet heavy?
Q: With the large glass, is the helmet heavy?
A: We have designed this using reinforced lightweight PP materials. While the lens is larger, the shell is optimized to keep the overall weight balanced. The upgraded Pivoting Headgear with breathable padding distributes the weight evenly across your head to prevent neck strain.
Q: What type of battery does this use?
Q: What type of battery does this use?
A: It uses a replaceable CR2450 Lithium Battery. This is a larger, higher-capacity battery than the standard CR2032 found in smaller helmets, providing the extra power needed to run the large 4-sensor screen for longer periods.
Q: The lens isn't getting dark enough, or it's too dark. How do I fix it?
Q: The lens isn't getting dark enough, or it's too dark. How do I fix it?
A:
Check the Range Switch: Inside the helmet, check if the switch is set to "5-9" (Cutting) or "9-13" (Welding). If you are welding on the "5-9" setting, it will feel too bright.
Adjust the Shade Knob: Use the external knob to fine-tune the shade level.
Check Grind Mode: Ensure the external click-knob is not stuck in "Grind" mode.
