HTP welding helmet

[1badchevelle]

Here is a link to a helmet I seen on Super Chevy. I got a welder some time ago and need a helmet so I can learn how to weld. Do any of you have any feedback. Or should I just save my money and get a miller lucky elite?

I think for $70 you cant beat it but dont want to take a chance.

Thanks

We've used HTP helmets and equipment for years with great success.

These work well too.... Same specs, cost a little less though.

My experience with welding helmets is you get what you pay for. Yeah the Harbor Freight and some of the cheap ebay ones are ok but you'll notice a difference when you get a good helmet.

Yeh I thought about that and I am not willing to bet my eyes. So off to buy a miller lid.
