Although it sports no features it orignally was 299.99 or something like that and we got it on sale 1yr ago fo 99.99.
I would also like something with a larger veiwing area.

Mine flashes me when I am in a weird angle and my hand cast a shodow over the sensors. Sucks pretty bad, I will get one of thse big window elite jobbies with the 4 sensor pickups here soon.

Just get a $26 Jackson shadow, and be done with it. An auto-darkening hood won't make you a better welder. In fact, it may serve as a crutch that you get used to, and depend on...then when you're somewhere it's not available, you'll be all fucked up.
in 19 years of my welding experience, I have never bought an auto-darkening hood.

Re: AutoDark Helmets
i think a regular mask is fine with a mig( never used a tig) but i cant use one with the arc i have. and so far my hf helmet has been fine i weld at night but it has a battery too. the only complaint is i would like a bigger viewing area and the straps on it are ----

Re: AutoDark Helmets
I got an ebay autodark welding mask from a local guy
Bumble - search Tony-Jenn (thats his ebay name) and check his auctions, hes a local guy to us and always has a big selection of pretty much all tools and machines. i picked up my chicago electric welder, 2 chop saws and the auto darkening mask for $200 CDN
hes always got cool ----
Oh and yes the autodark masks are very ------- good, i use mine all the time with my fluxcored and its awesome to be able to see through the lens when your not welding and as soon as you throw an arc it goes pitch black and show me the puddle haha
