Greetings. I haven't tried 6010 but am quite pleased with how my 280DX runs 7018. Just my $0.02 worth.

Perhaps get a small pack of new filler just to see if that's it.

Re: Am I harming my eyes?
So far I'm finding the digital elite to be very comfortable on my oversized noggin. After spending today experimenting and getting a little more used to my new glasses, I've been able to achieve satisfactory results with the shade on 9. I think getting used to my glasses was the key.
Cheers.

Re: Am I harming my eyes?
Yep. growing old ain't for sissies.
It sure beats the alternative though. Good luck with your eye doc and all.
Merry Christmas and whatnot.

Re: Am I harming my eyes?
Jonathan, I just bought the Miller helmet this week to rule that variable out. I have three auto-dark helmets now as well as an old-school Huntsman with a shade 11 gold lens. I have the same issues using any one of them. I welded all thru the 80s and 90s and never had these problems. I took about a ...

Re: Am I harming my eyes?
Jonathan, thanks for the reply. I have tried with and without my glasses. I can definitely do a better job with them on when I TIG but they don't seem to help at all when I MIG. I can stick weld fine with the shade on 11. My biggest problem is not in seeing the weld puddle and right around it, I jus...

Am I harming my eyes?
Greetings everyone. I have been having a hard time seeing what I'm doing when welding lately even with new glasses I had made for the purpose. I just got a new Miller digital elite helmet, and by setting the shade to 8 I can see fairly well. I am doing MIG, TIG, and stick but mostly MIG lately. I kn...
