AD hemet "resting shade"?

admin

Do all auto darkening helmet have the same shade while not welding? My HF blue works marginally well during day light hrs. in my shop. When it's dark out with shop lighting kind of hard to see with lid down. Once I strike an arc seems to be ok after that. Crete
Reply:Most are about 3 or 4, but it's the color of the resting shade that makes a big difference.Tiger 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 really like the amber resting shade. My Jackson HaloX has an amber shade. Speedglas has green. But as previously stated, my shop lighting is bright enough it doesnt really matter.
