thank god finally a guy who reviews welding helmets and actually puts it in front of the camera so we can see an arc thro the lens
Thank you for noticing. It's really a pain in the tail, but we hope to get better at it. Thanks for watching.
Been looking at a few reviews, and pretty much none have a through lens view, thich kind of begs the question, what the hell are they reviewing!
You just saved me around $160 bucks, I raise my Whiskey to you sir! Best to you and yours!!
I’ve had this hood for a few months. Been great so far.
That's awesome, glad it's working for you and thanks for watching.
How’s it holding up? I’m wanting to learn welding and want to know how different helmets last past a year
@@Mr.Doodlebob
It’s a good helmet. I really like the function and capability of it. I have two issues with it and one of them is user err. 1st. The peripheral glass seemed to flicker. The sensors were pretty sensitive compared to the main lense. So, as you loved your head around the darkness would flick off and on. It was distracting.
Plus, I didn’t find myself needing the extra field of view.
2nd issue is I would always forget to take it out of grind mode before striking a weld. Happened all the time. Luckily, if you understand how auto lenses work, they provide a lot of eye protection even if the lense doesn’t go dark so it was never a big deal.
Son is taking up welding at school so I've started to look up PPE reviews. Thank you for clearly communicating.
Glad to help. We love to hear when a younger generation is pursuing the trades, especially welding. That's a great skill that could lead directly to working without any debt. Thanks for watching.
Good Video. I just bought a very low cost helmet from YesWelder. I would like to see a comparison of the lens units of a Miller/Lincoln and the YesWelder. Some say all these units are made by just a handful of company's.
Man you did a great job with this. Thank you for your time and effort in this video.
We really appreciate that. Thanks for watching.
Trying to decide on panoramic view or the regular yes welder helmet
Very nice. It also looks like the front unit has four sensors versus the usual two. That should prevent flashing when welding in awkward positions, when the two sensors might get covered up. (PS: just ordered one)
You are correct, more sensors on this helmet enables better protection to flashing. That's awesome. Let us know what you think. Thanks for watching.

Hey I noticed this video is 3 years old, How has this YesWelder Auto Darkening Helmet holding up? I'm entering the welding field and really like the helmet, but I wanted to know the longevity of the helmet. While I have been interning I have been using a regular welding helmet, and I miss the Auto Darkening Helmet I used in School from Shop class it was SO convenient.
There does not seem to be a 302C helmet on the Yeswelder web site. Your link is invalid. Can you give an update? Thanks for a good review!
How’s the helmet holding up? Thanks
That is pretty awesome. I've been looking for a new hood to complement my new everlast welder. My old hood is showing its age.
Exact reason I’m here ha! Optrel is looking like the winner though
Great video, very informative. Thank you. I just bought this helmet I can't wait to use it.
Newbie Here.. Thank you for a Great Review !!!
Thanks for showing how it looks. I like it. Although I'm not sure about the panoramic view. I assume the non-panoramic is the same without side views. I will have to think about getting the panoramic or not. Great review. People should really do what you do when reviewing helmets and just let the viewer decide.
Thanks for the positive feedback and Thanks for watching.
The Miller infinity has a bigger screen and the cover plates are easily available. You'll have to get cover plates from yes welder as no parts stores are stocking yeswelder cover plates.
How much of a difference does having the side ones make? Because it seems like a pretty big blind spot in between them so I feel like it wouldn’t make that much of a difference
As a fabricator one thing I need to know more about before I buy a hood is the headgear availability as far as adapting to a hardhat a lot of jobs that I go to require that you wear a hardhat at all times so when thinking about getting a welding hood for work purposes that’s something that I consider before buying
I think it can
To be honest, as a fabricator, you should buy a more suited quality helmet. You only have one set of eyes. These helmets looks too gimmicky, and probably good for weekend welders, rather for professionals. JMO.
Thanks for the video. I'm new to welding. I don't understand the need to have the side windows at all, what's the purpose? When you are welding, you aren't going to be looking through the side windows. Is there a benefit that I'm not understanding? Just curious. Looks like a nice helmet though.
I ordered one of these prior to seeing this Video. Havnt used it much but agree with what you said. Right now they have a 20% off coupon too!
That's a really good deal. Thanks again for watching.
Where did you find the 20% off coupon code?
@@gmetzent I follow a lot of welding and Fabrication pages on Facebook it was on my feed. But I think it was for end of the year (2020).
@@gmetzent and right now YesWelder has a "Black Friday" 20% discount on everything.
Excellent review. I love the pano view idea and front shield, but don't like replacing batteries. My current Kobalt is large view through the front and solar charges. Will that one hold a magnifying lens inside?
I'm not sure if it will hold a magnifying lens. I understand what you're saying about the batteries, but they seem to last a while in other battery powered helmets I have. Thanks for watching.
so this is why my helmet is with charging function.BTW my helmet is voice control
It says it's Solar Powered and compatible for Magnifying Lens. Most Solar Powered do also have batteries my last Lincoln helmet is Solar Powered and also has a replaceable battery. My Lincoln helmet I've had for 3 years I've never had to change the battery, I gave it to my dad when I ordered the Panoramic View 302C Yes Welder helmet.
I have a 15 year old miller thats bern on its last legs for awhile this looks great
Can't beat the price.
I've just bought a Cold Welder and am having difficulty seeing the tungsten tip between flashes leading to dipping in syndrome, this is mainly due to the present auto dark helmet lens being a murky green when clear.....so having seen the new wave of must have helmets with the clear view lens etc etc and the 100mm X 93mm big lens area, I went on EBAY and bought the Yes welder model LYG-800HP for A$99......has battery and solar, no side windows.
That’s great. Let us know how you like it. Thanks for watching
英文不是很好，从厂家买了个样品，应该和你是同款，200人民币，还没到货
Thanks for the review, but do you know the diff: Q800D vs 302c?
Great video, now double the price if your overseas but saying that where i live even the large screen welding helmets cost $300+ so even buying this off amazon your kind of winning.
Def my next upgrade, i am not a great welder but being able to see does change things
I've had this helmet now in use for 3 months. Seems to hold up well, the only thing I dont like is the weight of it.
thanks for information not shared in the video. I'm hoping to get Project Farm to test helmets--he leaves nothing out. Weight is a factor.
Nice review. Thanks a lot. I’ve been eyeballing this shield to replace a beaten to shit blue welder shield. I’ll be grabbing one of these now. Thanks again and thanks for discount.
This is all nice except we don't know where it's manufactured or where we can get replacement clips for the clear outer shield!
China, and get em from Amazon. Easy.
most the tools you own are from china, so why you worried now? Hell probably 99% of the stuff in your house is imported and your house was probably built by immigrants.
How much do the panoramic clear shields cost per?? At work they supply my clear lenses, but its gotta be something they get thru their dealer, so I'd have to foot the bill for those myself.
In the market to upgrade my harbor frieght helmet I’ve had for 5 years probably gettin this
Looks to me that it just triples the chance of one of the auto darkening windows going bad.
Of course i see this two days AFTER i got my miller digital infinity lol
You made the right call
How much?
Someone help me-I’m struggling to come up with a scenario where I would ever need or want a panoramic feature…
I wear a 6-3/4 hat size will these helmet adjust to a small head?
Is this helmet good for stick
There’s $1,800 worth of Milwaukee on that wall. Good taste. I trust your judgement.
Where did you buy your flashlilght
My rear head pad came all bent upwards and is super uncomfortable. I tried bending the plastic back to flatten it back down but it just goes back every time.
The lens looks just like the one in my cheapo Canaweld helmet.
What is one step better than this helmet?
dam, I bought 2, thanks, and thank you so much.
How difficult is it to get a clear replacement lens and where can you get it? Is it possible it uses a lens common to a domestic manufacturers lens?
Are you looking for a grinding lens? You just want it clear?
I'm a "home gamer" who just threw his yeswelder hood in the trash and replaced it with a standard lens hobart...I rarely weld but when I do; I expect my equipment to be ready.....no batteries ot cheapo china....
The LH threads threw me for a minute.
The panoramic view will be more comfortable for me
They're going for $100 shipped right now. Can't beat that for a 1/1/1/1.
That's a great deal. Thanks for watching.
Who is selling them for that price? YesWelder?
It's been a year how is it holding up ?
Actually, very well. I think we replaced the battery a few weeks ago, but I believe they ship an extra with the helmet. Other than that, it performs excellent. This gets used the most of any of our helmets.
I need a new hood my Lincoln auto hood keeps flashing me 😵
Cual es el mejor?
Burnt tf out of my eyes through the side lenses
Really?! The side lenses didn't auto-darken? Did you have the settings correct?
It still has that green effect
Did you notice the green fading once the lenses darkened?
@@paddlepower888 nope
I would prefer to have seen them put a knob on the side of the the helmet its really a pain in 🤬 when your welding and have to grind take your helmet off to switch to grind mode this should be the norm for all welding helmets
Can you not just stick your finger under the hood and flick the switch to grind?
@@pnorton75 You don't want to hit something on accident with clumsy welding gloves. I also don't want to take my gloves off to adjust it either. Should be able to just feel the side of the helmet and press/flip a switch.
I was a welder for 40 years and still weld. The auto darkening hoods are great, this is useless. What is next, getting Cell Phone capabilities? I understand you are showing us what is out there on the market, we have to look and see a company just trying to take 2 dollars worth of cheap electronics to jack the price up 40 bucks (or more). I like to rate things, in a 1-10 rating, this gets a 1/2. BUT... thanks for showing us what products.
I mean the general consensus tends to be that this helmet is a pretty solid choice, I don't know why you think it's useless but I'm all ears to hear why
I know this is old but I just bought this on Amazon for $20.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
now 139$ :)
@@heraldofdisaster3322 Just checked---Still $20.00
I just mite get this one for my first hood thanks great video
Very nice!
Thanks for watching.
Mine works nothing like that, it flashes all over
Really?! Have you tried changing the batteries or contacting support? Thanks for letting us know.
I like it, but for the price, I would prefer solar powered as opposed to replaceable batteries.
It's solar lol
Just start watching at about 2:15...
Video took longer than expected.
Dexterity on tightening a welding helmet but can't think about promoting a made in USA tool
What about cheaters?
You can put a cheater lens in it
Sure gets quite a few bad reviews on Amazon
Talk to Miller industries they want $350 plus for their top tier helmets..... What!!!! Not worth the price I think 😕😡
yep, they like their helmets. Thanks for watching.
Dont know if it helps but months ago the miller digital infinty helmet i was looking at was 400 and for whatever reason the price dropped recently. I got mine plus a tshirt, stick welding gloves and stickers for 270. The tshirt and gloves was just a free thing with purchase of a helmet. I got it at weldersupply.com
CCP owned tools in the background keep up the good work
They say you get what you pay for.
Maybe don't say um any more?
I wear a 6-3/4 hat size will this helmet adjust to a small head ?
