Specifically, is an electronic welding helmet safe to look at the sun?

I have always used 3-4 layers of exposed film taped to the end of a small set of binoculars! The welding helmet was not dark enough (at least mine) to completly cut through the glare and you would not be able to see the dot of Venus!
