Good question. Its just a flip down/up. I've never used a speed glass.
Glad the "speed glass" subject came up. I've welded off and on since I was 21 or so. Never had the luxury of an auto-darkening helmet.Brother man you need to get one..I have been welding for 25+years.It will in prove your welding.its lighter.and will cause little to no stress on your neck.Trust me welding causes more stress on the body and mind..more they most think.Every thing that can reduce said stress will add years of life.!!!!

Finally got my own little welder last year. (A little 180 Lincoln.) Comes with that little pissy hand held thing. I looked at the other ones, but bought a "flip up."
I know ya get what ya pay for...
Harbor Freight has one for $35 http://www.harborfreight.com/weldin...hade-auto-darkening-welding-helmet-46092.html
When I bought my flip-up, Tractor Supply had a Hobart for $60 maybe?
I've seen some pretty high dollar helmets, but i just want an inexpensive one.
What do you guys suggest?
Just welding around the house Bro, mig.Digger
Speed glass..around 300$..Thoese cheap ones Do not snap fast enouf..(darken)_to long of a delay.
And will just hurt your eyes.I know first hand..I never know if its a small Nat flying in front of me or its just burn holes in my retinas.
And I can not drive at nite The head lights of on coming cars hurt my eyes..
So with that said speed glass all the way.If your not tigging and just MIG low amp welding a lower end speed glass will do just fine.But tig welding You need a fully adjustable hood..
RC Addict wants you to do HIS helmet.....you know, the one he's required to wear to school.
You promised you would quit teasing me about my helmet. I'm telling the bus driver!!!
