Definitely expensive. They claim to be the greatest brand on the market, a claim I believe. But almost impossible for anyone except bigger businesses to afford.
I used to get a speed glass supplied by my old employer back in the late 90’s. Great helmet back then. No where near today’s Harbor freight high end. I’ve settled on the newer Lincoln helmets. Maybe not the top of the line but best I’ve had so far, that have held up to position work. Like the look of the new more narrow rounded masks. Maybe I’ll upgrade again in 5 years.
I have more questions than answers

I think you'll be waiting a very long time. Even I wouldn't buy it. And I buy anything, lol.invader28 wrote:I would like to hear more reviews on this helmet from people that already are using it. I have favored Speedglas over the years.
Thanks

Just from the link you posted, I was actually asking what the conversion to USD would be, I wasn't stating it. I have no idea what the conversion rate is, I just went with 2x

The person who designed it obviously must have had a job at one point where they were not allowed to use their phone on the job. So to circumvent that, they designed a welding helmet that requires one in order to configure it and use it. Now in between welding beams they can play Angry Birds.sbaker56 wrote:Bluetooth ADF?
