Hi all, I'm thinking of getting one or two welding helmets for X-mas.
I've got a Dayton welder in the barn that I've used a little,
with an old flip style helmet. My son (age 14) has gotten into metal working
and would like to try welding. There are a huge number of options.
Here's one review.

From which I'm thinking of the Antra for ~$50, or perhaps the
classic Miller for a bit more.
Your thoughts?

I use both the Harbor Freight (with control switches for delay and
shade) and my beloved and mostly used Optrel..which does
everything..and very very well.

Rather large difference in pricing though.....

Ive recently used the Miller and its a nice helmet. But
frankly..doesnt work better than the Harbor Freight.
