Hi Alec,

Auto darkening hoods are great, the technology has proven itself in the past couple of years. They really cut back on arc flash and help eliminate arc strikes. And we all know that an arc strikes and structural loading don't mix. I don't know about Harbor Freight's quality assurance but a good hood is an important investment.. And don't worry about the batteries they tell you when they're low without you having to "see" it for yourself.

Harbor Freight is offering used auto-darkening welding helmets for about $50, which is an awfully good price. Auto-darkening sounds like a grand idea but I keep wondering if when the batteries die, I'll need a little white walking stick to get around.

Does anyone have experience with these gadgets?
