I have a twenty or year old Speed Shade non adjustable Helmet that I got as a Christmas Present from my Mom. Used now, only for MIG.
I have removed a filter to make it lighter and installed a cheater lense which helped, but still have issues seeing the puddle or seam to be welded. One issue might be that I have different prescriptions in my hard contact lenses to allow for close and far vision.
But I am curious. Are there differences in helmets? I guess, for one thing, newer ones have a larger window, but that might not make the image any better. Are adjustable ones better?
