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

Woah. Depends on the darkening level. My "electronic welding helmet" rocks, but....
You have to adjust the darkening level with a knob. And even at full dark, some critics will still give you grief. Mine was fine. Like I said before, can you look at it without it seeming too bright, then look away with no artifacts?? There's no substitute for common sense. Thought I'd share this for fun.... http://gizmodo.com/5916350/this-amazing-sp...dium=socialflow |
