Welding Helmet Light Mod ( See Better Weld Better)

[@GotScout]

Dude your welds... all credibility blown.

[@scantronsgarage]

It is what it is I guess.

[@AlbeTurner]

Great idea. Thanks for sharing. I only wish you'd spent a little more time regarding the clamps and how you used them to attach the lite to the hood. Thanks again..

[@scantronsgarage]

Sorry... that would have been helpful. I have an easier option for you. Use the big paper clips with the wings to spread the metal open. I bet these would work even better, or be more available to most people. Thank you for watching : )

Hello, Nice video, just subscribed after seeing your bellhousing conversion plate video. I have the same head torch on my Esab Helmet in Ireland and can confirm that really is a game changer.

[@scantronsgarage]

Thanks for the sub! Yes it does help especially as I am getting older. Awesome to hear you are in Ireland! I need to get there some day to get back to my roots.

[@tonychearnley3236]

Where did you get the torch in Ireland?

[@geoffwalker1531]

Most decent motor factors sell Durite Torches. Their range includes a similar product as well as an extendable led torch which is very handy too.

[@davidhall4398]

Wow great video just what I've been looking for...like you getting older sucks... I've currently got a torch taped onto my welding helmet works brilliantly...but need something better your idea is perfect thanks for the upload👍

[@scantronsgarage]

Glad you found it helpful. this is now a permanent fixture on my helmet.

[@WelderB1Family]

Thanks for this! I got one of these but couldnt figure out how to get it on without it interference of the headgear 🤙🏾💯👨🏾‍🏭💰

[@scantronsgarage]

Welcome! Try the paper clips with the wings on them. Use them to clamp on the left and right of the hood. I have mine clear of the headgear luckily.

[@gorandiaye50]

Félicitations et merci pour votre excellente vidéo.

[@scantronsgarage]

Thank you so much!

[@chiathach206]

Can it withstand over head welding Spark ?

[@scantronsgarage]

Yes. I have used this setup welding on my back under cars. I have had no issues other than the same abuse your welding helmet takes.

[@miketruckermike292]

where did you get the clips for the light? I thought they were included with the light but no clips in mine

[@scantronsgarage]

I got them at ACE hardware. they are called "j clips"

[@ckiernan001]

Nice video, what helmet are you using? My helmet has photo cells at the brow above the sheild and on the chin below. Not opposed to a helmet change since I'm in the same situation as you. Thanks for sharing! - Carey

[@scantronsgarage]

I got this one from lowes. Its a Kobalt. This is my most favorite helmet yet. Luckily the light clamped on easily too.

[@randallsemrau6911]

How long does the battery last?

[@scantronsgarage]

Quite a while. It will vary on what intensity you have it set on. 8 hours on low

[@landslide03]

you need to put that its a paid promotion! I could tell right off the bat it was a sponsored video. I bought one of these from Temu for 4 bucks and they dont work very well at all. Amazon even sells them for $12 please dont try to rip off your subs!

[@scantronsgarage]

Thanks

[@bullardfiveo2521]

I think this thing would burn up 232 overhead structural

[@scantronsgarage]

Still working

[@WV591]

doesn't that cover the sensors

[@scantronsgarage]

The sensor is on the bottom of the welding screen luckily : )

[@WV591]

@@scantronsgarageTHX. I tried it, for my aging eyes just not enough light. oh well ;-)

[@hotchquz7613]
