Crawford, VA C ckimbrough18 OP Mudrunner When I was buying my new welder this week, I took the liberty of checking out the new welding shields. My old one is the standard shield with the stationary lens. The ones that I was looking at are auto darkening. Anyone have any input on these things? Is it alright to buy one of the cheaper ones? Or should I fork out the $200 for one of the expensive ones? Where is the best place to buy one? Thanks, Charles Trooper has been sold!

The standard, always-dark, ones, well, so long as their surface seems like it will hold up to abuse, you should be able to skimp a little on them. 91 Jeep Wrangler YJ, carpet, tires, trailer hitch. yea....

I loved my Miller autodarken I used at work!!!! Last edited by DougH; 04/04/05 04:20 AM.
