Solar powered welding helmet darkens itself automatically

Do you do a whole lot of welding as part of your work, or even at home because you love tinkering around with metal and creating new stuff out of all the scrap out there? Well, if you have answered the question with a resounding “Aye!”, then surely you have a welding helmet in your possession, no? If you think that your eyes will need even more protection, then you might be interested to pick up this special welding helmet that is capable of darkening itself automatically, depending on the situation, of course. Even better is this – the reaction time of its shades is super fast, thanks to a small solar cell that is located above the viewing window.

Just how good is it? Well, there are three designs to choose from, where all of them will definitely meet relevant industry standards. The auto-darkening lens is capable of responding within 1/25000 seconds, getting dark the moment you start to weld, and clearing up when you stop. These shades can be switched in a jiffy and continuously, from 9 to 13 with 1/10000 seconds reaction time.

All solar energy collected will power the rechargeable lithium battery. Would you pick up this puppy for $58.99? It is extremely affordable now since the regular price is $149. Here’s an extremely belated Father’s Day gift just in case you are still on the lookout for one…
