    Keith,

    The helmets will be available online shortly. We are doing the pictures. The prices range from $79.99 to $189.99 for the helmet with Grinding and Welding modes with the bigger viewing lenses. If you are interested in a specific helmet, we can get you the specs right away. We also take paypal.

    So ALL of the control panels are the same ? I will look through it again. Things that are good to know are positions of switches, ease of changing back and front clear lens etc. Are all of the headgears the same and the only thing that changes is the shell ?

    Re: New Longevity auto dark helmets

    do these helmets use standard size lens plates?

    i have a harbor freight helmet, and his has special cover plates. it really makes it a pain in the arse to get the cover plates.

    I have the $49.00 one with the blue flames it works great except for grinding and changing the cover plates. I have to either cut one down or buy theirs.

    Re: New Longevity auto dark helmets

    Take a look at Simon's post, he states that the price of the helmets varies with the grinding mode and size of viewing area.
    Also from the picks there is at least one helmet that has out side darking controls. I think we need to wait for them to appeare on the website.

    Re: New Longevity auto dark helmets

    It looked like they all had essentially the same viewing area. All similar to a standard size filter plate, I didn't see any with a large viewing area. Simon are you speaking of just fractions of an inch viewing size or are there some large lens helmets coming ?
