Jackson Welding Hood

admin

Looking to buy myself a new welding hood for christmas. I have been using a harbor freight ad hood for a few years now and kinda want to upgrade. I found a Jackson W40 Insight Variable ADF on Amazon for $88. Has anyone used this hood? It seems to me that this hood is as good at the $200ish hoods sold by miller. Any insight is appreciated.Here is a link to Amazon:http://www.amazon.com/Jackson-Insigh...sight+Variable

Search Jackson Balder or smart tigger and you should find their commentsTiger Sales:  AHP Distributor    www.tigersalesco.comAHP200x; AHP 160ST; MM350P,  Spoolmatic 30A; Everlast PowerTig 185; Thermal Dynamics 60i plasma.  For Sale:  Cobra Mig 250 w/ Push-pull gun.  Lincoln Wirematic 250

Reply:I have the W40 Insight  in the Halo X shell(right). It is a very nice filter. Very clear. I would spend the extra money and get the Halo X shell as it is much lighter than the HSL-100 Shadow (left) Attached ImagesMiller Dialarc 250 AC/DCWeldcraft A-150VSmith O/P
