TekwareUltra Large Viewing Screen True Color Solar Power Auto Darkening Welding Helmet, Hemispherical 4C lense, 4 Arc Sensor Wide Shade 4~5/9-9/13 for TIG MIG Arc Weld Grinding Welder Mask

TEKWARE Ultra Large Viewing Screen True Color Solar Power Auto Darkening Welding HelmetThis is a very nice welding helmet. I call them welding hoods most of the time.Anyway i searched around for a good helmet at a reasonable price but still wanted good eye protection very important to me.I chose this one, but wasn't to crazy about the double banded head band, i never had a head band like this before.But i bought this hood anyway. When i first got it it didn't flip up and down right on my head.I was thinking dang new double banded head gear. But... i discovered quite quickly the headband was installed wrong.All the washers, clips and stops were upside down or something to that effect.So i took the entire headband gear off helmet, looked at owners manual that has the break down of several models and found mine and put it together per instructions.Through a couple of trial head fits to flip hood up an down on my head i got it just right.Fits good and flips real good.Now this might be tricky because there is quite a few components for the headgear to flip correctly. Especially the stop unit to limit the amount the hood flips up, flips down and and there is a adjustment to change the distance the hood sits to your face, nose.And that stop thing component that goes with all the washer thumb screws on side of helmet has a small catch noob that lets you push helmet back up one more click so helmet doesn't fall down to weld position when your walking.Pay attention there are little square cut outs to line up headgear components through welding hood, not real easy because helmet is made of light weight plastic like material.Great helmet, get your headgear assembled correctly and it works better than any other helmet i have used.I like the double banded design now.

Very large and clear viewing area. Very comfortable and the head strap has a wide range of adjustment and fits very secure as well. Better quality than I expected for sure. The lens responds quickly (no flashes yet) and appears to adjust adequately to the settings. Would recommend to others……Update: after 8 months, it lie at the bottom of my garbage can in about 20-30 pieces. Flashed me on too many times and will never do it again. Save your money. But a good helmet. Don’t buy this P.O.S. Your eyesight is worth investing in a good helmet. If I could re-rate this it would be less than one star. Absolute garbage.

Good inexpensive welding helmet. Works good as expected. Nice field of vision with the wide lens. Only complaint is the head strap. The tightener for the circumference failed after the first use. It is indeed very cheaply made. I replaced the head strap with one that was in an older helmet I no longer used. the auto darkening works great, and one has multiple setting to customize the lens to what is best suited for your needs. If you purchase this helmet, then go ahead and purchase a head strap to go with it.

I got this hood for welding school- our instructor ordered us Lincoln electric hoods but they took two months to arrive… I was really excited about getting my Lincoln electric hood thinking it would somehow be better since it was way more expensive and name brand; but when it finally got here, I realized I love this hood so much more!My instructor was comparing our home brought hoods to the one we got and he even told the class that my tekware hood was probably way more expensive because of the 4 censors and having auto darkening, cutting, and grinding settings.I struggled with setting it up right at first but I wasn’t a welder so it took the help of my instructor to set it up properly. I’ve been using this hood for almost 3 months now and I absolutely love it, no complaints.

I love it it works great and I love all the custom designs they have

Looking to start learning to weld. Got this helmet because it looks nice and claimed to have a wide view.Had to return the welder because it's a 220V and didn't have the plug and was going to keep the helmet until I can order a new welder. Then saw a lot of reviews on this helmet about the screen not working.Pushed the test button and got nothing. Changed battery and pushed test button and got nothing. Someone said you need bright lights to calibrate. Put it infront of a 2000 lumen flood light. Push test button and screen go dark. Release test button and screen goes back to clear. Turn flood light on and off, screen goes dark for a sexond. Changed sensivity and delay disn't make much difference. Going to return and try a different brand.

This is absolutely worth every penny. The clarity is incredible. It is comfortable and seems to be very well constructed.

It is comfortable. Nice heavy duty padded head gear inside. Controls on the outside. Easy to memorize. Works great!I'm no longer blinded by the light...lolIt came with 2 extra front covers and 2 inside screens.Great deal on a great welding helmet.Thanks
