I had this model for a year, only thing i didnt like about it is the on/off switch broke after about 8 months, its a small plastic switch. Great clarity, good fit, i always used it over my FR head cover/face cover to protect my whole head/neck. Used it in an industrial setting for a year, and when i was in tight spaces. I always used the facecover with it...never just the goggles. Mainly on TIG pipe, some stick structure (nothing overhead).
@nscardino34 I only really used it to watch one or 2 welds the robot makes to see what's going on cause it takes up so little room but yea definitely not something for more than 1 or 2 welds a day
@@IndustrialMaintenance ......ive used it for up to 6 hrs in a day. Ima buy the newer model and see how it does now. They have a newer designed on/off switch now and type C charging for only $4 dollars more.
I'm gonna grab this, I'm an auto tech and occasionally do exhaust welding which for this price and the space it seems great for that. Snap on sells similar goggles and mask but they want 500 bucks for it which in my opinion is crazy.
I work in the roof welding T,P,O membrane ,basically the membrane is white and reflects the sunlight on my face, this lenses can protect my eyes from the sunlight rays ?
Yep! I'd use something like this or a regular helmet with a leather flap on the top so it "drapes" over the back of ur head and blocks light coming from the back
I've only used one that a previous job provided... It didn't handle the abuse well. I do use alot of there products though and haven't been disappointed much. Factory workers abuse alot of things so them holding up as long as they did makes me always consider using there consumables

Seems like the goggles would be amazing for fitting/tacking up.
In most cases there just as good as a regular helmet unless you doing a ton of welding that I covered in the video, I still use mine
Just got this I work in hard hat environments I have the hard hat to helmet connectors and use them but in very tight spots I hope this comes in handy
Hows it working out?

I have one. Works good, but like all goggles, sweat getting behind the seal (which doesn't seal) can be an issue.
Yep! Has pros and cons. Hard to replace the traditional hood
What do u think of the Radnor helmets?
I've only used one that a previous job provided... It didn't handle the abuse well. I do use alot of there products though and haven't been disappointed much. Factory workers abuse alot of things so them holding up as long as they did makes me always consider using there consumables
I liie that so much and i will like more if i see alot of this stuff 👍🏻
Where can I get a magnifier for this unit
Not sure because it's not like a regular helmet. I can ask the company if u want me to and see if they have any thing that works
Does it fit over regular glasses?
It didn't fit comfortably over my safety glasses. I don't have regular glasses though. I could do it if need be but not really long term
@@IndustrialMaintenance thank you for replying back.
@@redlinepaul410 anytime!
I feel like that would be great for TIG
Not as good as a normal hood, unless ur in really tight spots
Do you think this could take place of a pipeline welders pancake hood
No, maybe light out door work but the pancake is so good at that one job I don't see this doing that
Hows the shade when oxy welding
Not sure, with my map gas bottle it's fine. Only used it to add braze for emergency bandaid work. But never really used it for much oxy work.
can you use prescription glasses with this goggles?
I tried some reading glasses and was a bit tight but wasn't uncomfortable. I don't have real glasses
Do they fit well with a hard hat on?
Not sure, I don't have a hard hat to try it with sorry
Does it cover your ears
Not this one
@@IndustrialMaintenance hey thanks for the response. Sounds like I’ll be adding some wings to get closer to the face of a pancake
@@CLOClayton yea haha. Anytime!
Español ????
No sorry
