Check out the F-Series shade 10 Tefuawe auto darkening 2x4 welding lens. Light shade is only 2.5, shade 10 when dark, solar panel, 2 sensors, optical clarity of 1/1/1/2.
It really is a good deal. I have seen them around on TH-cam and Amazon for a while. I took a chance and I am very pleased. Some of my other helmets would flash me when I was using Tig. I found out later that they were not rated for lower amp Tig. So, when I was looking at this lense, I saw that the F-Series are rated for tig all the way down to 5 amps. And, you cant beat the clarity. I especially like that it is True Color, whether in the light shade or engaged. I hate the green lenses.
@@AllStarWeldingSC I ran one of the fixed 10.5 shade gold tig rated ones for a while and now I have one of their stainless “hand” series ones that’s awesome. When I’m not running a fixed lens I run that one of most of the time
No. It's accurate to a fixed lens 10 though. The one I have is the F-Series lens, good for tig down to 5amps. The F-Series aren't available in a 9, I don't think. Just 10, 10.5, and 11.
huh, I don't wear any prescription glasses but makes me wonder if those cheater lenses would be a good upgrade for the sake of making things look more up close
No sir. It was ready right out of the box. Because it doesn't have any other functions other than just on/off, it doesn't take much. I just bought a second one a few days ago for a second hood to keep in the truck. I think these are great! And the F series will do tig all the way down to 5 amps.
Nice video sir! I appreciated the reader lens you talked about.
Thanks! Yeah, those things are great 👍
I keep seeing this lense and I think i need to purchase it. It seems like a good buy for the price

I like this welding helmet
Just picked up one myself. Would you say the shade is accurate to a fixed lens shade 9? Or rather on the lighter or darker side

@@AllStarWeldingSC Sweet, an thanks for the video. Have good one

I find that they are handy when tig welding. Let's me get really up close so I can get a better view of my puddle. For mig and stick, not too helpful.
Does this lense have to charge in the sun before you use it?
