Auto welding mask

Does anyone use one of these?

cgi.ebay.co.uk/Auto-Darkening-Solar-Weld...&hash=item19c2bca847

I'm still using a hand held visor but with sills to be welded auto has got to be the way to go! Is £20 false economy? The Aberdonian in me is attracted to this price!! Seems to be down to viewing window size, the cheapies seem to be about 90 X 40 mm. Is there any advantage in spending £50, £200 or more?
Cheers,

This is usefull i was thinking exactly the same!

Thanks, sounds ok for me then although i have a large head! Machinemart have them for £60 but didnt fancy paying that..

Martin are they better to weld with than the handheld, apart from the obvious bonus of having two hands available?

We have a Sealey one and a Machine mart jobbie, both seem decent enough but weren't cheap, if the e bay guys can do them for less then then go foir it, after all it is a welding helmet and will take a few knocks and drops.
We always wear hats under the helmet which overcomes the difficulties of kids with small heads.
No comparison with the hand held things. Its like the difference between the caveman's axe and a laser

ive had one of the cheap ebay ones for about 2 years now its exelent & would not have a standard welding mask ever again

get one you won't regret it

Cheers guy looks like it's yes then! 3 - nil.
