Yeah, I'd not had a auto-shade helmet, either, and Dad's didn't fit well
so I bought an moderate one (I can't bring myself to trust HF for this
kind of thing). It's too dark for everything I've done to date since
even w/ a standard arc; can just barely see anything. I suppose again
if I had it cranked full bore it might be ok, but all in all it's not
been the help I was expecting...

I have a Jackson EQC and an HF, both work just fine. The EQC has about
3x the window area and 6x the price.
How does a larger or wide-angle lens help when the area of focus is so
small?
