auto-darkening helmet question
Forgive me if this is a well hashed topic - I'm really just looking
for more opinions from people in the trenches. (And I only drop into RCM about once a year it seems...) It seemed to me that since there is a finite amount of time that an auto-darkening helmet takes to respond, that cumulatively this epxosure could in fact be harmful (0.001 second times 2000 arc strikes in a work day, or whatever....) This guy, who should know a whole lot more about it than a novice amatuer welder like myself would, thinks otherwise: http://www.asashop.org/autoinc/jan2002/collision.cfm Anyone care to give me their 2 cents before I run out and buy one of these things? And if they are really comparable to sliced bread, is there a favorite model? Thanks, Mickey |
