Putting auto darkening glass in a passive helmet

I have a old Jackson passive lens in it and I am about ready to put a auto darkening piece of glass in it. Do I need the rest of the system or will auto darkening glass shade 10 for when MIG and TIG and 12 for ARC? I mean the main question I am asking is will it work without the electronic unit? I have no altorations yet just wanted to put the auto darkening glass by itself in. Is this doable?

they make units you can put into the old fixed passive shade helmets

When I bought an ArcOne S240 single I found it for about $50.
It's self contained and solar, no batteries.
