    Default second hand Miller helmet

    hi everyone - i just brought a Black Elite Miller speed helmet from cash converters for $130 - thats a bargain of the century - dont they sell for like $400 plus brand new? Does anyone know if this is a decent helmet - it has adjustable speed and light sensitivity - even has 9-13 shade control knob on the outside of the helmet. Couldnt belive my eyes when i saw it today just sitting there.

    Just wondering if this helmet is suitable for TIG welding - shouldnt be a problem i assume but wanna make sure. Any input would be great.


    Cheers

    I got a Miller Elite (the red one with the flames) for $250 on ebay brand new. I was happy as...Guys at school where bragging they got there's for 500 bucks. Good purchase, gotta love crime converters.

    I used this badboy to pass my tig ticket and its awesome.

    Great helmets, just remember to press the reset button after you put it down for long.
    Otherwise ....
    hahaha

    Miller helmets are no good. They are actually very good, but I just wanted to write that because I don't own one.
