I unbox, review, and demo the DEKO Auto Darkening Welding Helmet that I bought off eBay for $20. As I have found through the demos and my regular use of the helmet, the settings are very useful for a variety of environments.

As you will see in the video, a combination of minimum delay and maximum sensitivity can cause the darkening feature to "flash" from a desk lamp - it may seem problematic as you watch, but it's actually a testament to how sensitive the mask can be.

Later in the video I demo the mask outdoors with a live welding demo. The mask quickly darkens for the duration of the welds and returns to a lighter view soon after the weld is over.

  • I’m pretty new on this. Can you use this with any type of welder wire or stick?
  • @ryanhell921
    Did you have to charge it in the sun before the first use?

    A very good welder told me you don't buy a £20 helmet, you only have one pair of eyes. Must admit the components look the same as in many helmets
