So Santa wants to bring me a new helmet. I have had a solar powered unit for years with no problems. I kinda like not having to deal with them. How often are these batteries taking a crap? I don't weld a ton and would like to put my helmet on and weld without having to go pick up batteries. Is than an advantage to battery style?

I've had both and I've never had an issue w/ my Miller battery powered. Just keep a spare set of batteries on hand. Dead batteries = shield stays completely dark. It's really obvious when it's time for new ones.
