And the protection for MIG and TIG is even darker than for manual arc welding since there's no flux to reduce the incredible glare.
It will give you sun burn.Comment

Originally posted by Paddy View PostI have seen auto darkening welding helmets. It saves accidentally poking the cat's bum hole with a welding rod.
It's got a photocell so doesn't need batteries or anything, generates the darkening voltage from the light of the arc.
So it's green too.Comment
