ESAB Sentinel A60 Review UPDATE after using for a year 0700600860

[@Pj_fabrications]

I have a problem with the helmet as it tends to shake and rock like the plastic piece is loose.

ONE PROBLEM MATE THE FRONT LENCS COST A FORTUNE COMPARED TO THE 3M SPEEDGLASS

Even though it is an auto dark helmet, there are still many times when holding a part with one hand and a stinger or gun in the other you want the helmet to drop. Holding a constant fiction so the helmet drops when you want it to and not when you don't is very important especially to one who does more fitting as opposed to just welding all day. I have some of the most expensive helmets available and their headgear fails in this area. How does this one do?

[@Hood_Tyme_Fab]

I hope to grab one of these at some point.

[@devinschmidt3233]

What colour is the puddle blue green or orange …… can you attach the fresh air attachment on it

[@BakersGas]

No you could use something like the Swiss Air under it, though. bakersgas.com/products/optrel-4700010

[@DharwinMoris]

You should have showed us the view behind the lens in darkened and undarkened state, instead of just saying 'the clarity is so great"

How is this helmet compared to the cheap $105 Lincoln that is available at Home Depot? I want to upgrade and this is one I want but I’m still on the fence about dropping that much money. I notice that my Lincoln someone pops out of the darkening area and I would get arc flash for a split second before it go back to dark.

Your eyes have no price.

[@BakersGas]

This is a significantly nicer helmet than a $100 option. With the current rebate you can get this for a lot less....overall you are getting a larger view and clarity is going to be better. Other things are more comfortable headgear and nicer user interface

[@AJays734]

Replacement lenses on this thing are more expensive than optrel... thats a reason ill pass. I barely use my optrel helmwt because of the cost of replacement lensea. I usually use my arcone 2 x 4 in my pipeliner bec im cheap.

[@Branhawk]

The price of lens covers for the a60 are outrageous and makes it not worth it is my review.

[@jsk.71]

Leaving my Optrel Helix Clt for a ESAB Sentinel A60. With my Optrel I couldn't keep a fixed shade while using a cutting torch. On automatic it would keep changing shades. Also the helmet will not stay up, only 3 months old. Finally the panoramic view sucks. Its like taking your finger and putting it up to your nose, and looking in between. Been welding for 32yrs. Optrel has been very disappointing.
