ESAB Halo Sentinel A50 Automatic Welding Helmet 0700000800 with Free Accessories

Love the helmet but the head harness has a major flaw. The pop nut adjustment knob keeps popping off, I just lived with it until I had to send it back in for repair, the auto-dark lens failed. This was cover by warranty. I had mention the weak design and they also replaced the harness which was nice. I get it back, happy so I thought. Knowing of the weak design I was careful not to over stress the tightener, but after using it no more than 12 times, the damn press-on nut popped off again, it is now lost on my shop floor.. I contacted the manufacture and they want one to buy the entire head harness, for a 25cent pressed on nut. I even mention I would buy 6-12 of the nut, given they pop off so easy, I get no response. You that buy this helmet, one will have to be very carful, might be best to pop it off and super glue it back into place. As for me I will have to figure out to fix mine, NO way in hell I am going to buy a new harness for a 25 cent part. Once this helmet is no longer useable, will surely buy something else.

A+++++

My husband is amazed how much better he can see when welding.

It felt prefect on my head

Amazing hood overall, super clear view. Only problem I have is the placement of the sensors, when I weld in a confined position with just enough room to see the arc my hands will block the sensors from the sides and flash me. Would be nice if it had a fifth sensor in the middle. Still and amazing helmet overall, well worth the money

Good visibility, easy to use, grind mode means not flipping the helmet up to see

I love this hood! I have been welding with it for quite some time now and I havent really found anything that I dont like.

Its light weight and comfortable. I plasma cut, grind and weld almost all day and this is perfect. The buttons are well laid out and easy to use. I kept the yellow lens cover on and its perfect for plasma cutting. Yes its expensive but well worth the money.

When I bought the Fourney welder, I got their helmet. That was a mistake. I love the welder, but I hate the helmet. After doing some research (uTube videos) I decided to get this helmet. Boy, am I glad I did! This helmet is SO comfortable and works great! (it also doesnt fall off of my head when I lean down!) Too bad I didnt save some money and get this one first! Its solid, comfortable and highly adjustable (my nose was hitting the control panel at first, but I found out thats adjustable, as well as other directions!). I love it and dont mind wearing it.

Lightweight and very nice to wear.
