Is there much difference in clarity between the two Vulcan hoods when welding? I have a Jackson Nexgen and my boss had the 10.1 Vulcan. It was actually better when welding than mine. Just wondering if there was a difference in clarity when welding between the two Vulcan helmets.

There is an improvement in clarity but most of the differences I'd say is in color and viewing area and there seems to be less distortion.

It can weld aluminum great. So far Its been a great machine. 220v is best. Most people I hear complain are on 110v. That welder can do way better welds. I ran a miller for years, an older transformer welder. The 205 is very good if you set it up correctly and use 220v. It can do some very nice dime welds on both steel and aluminum.
