2) Is it normal to see nothing but pitch black when you stop welding and have the helmet on? Because on other helmets I have borrowed, you can see when you are not welding; and you can see everything around the weld while welding. But with my helmet, you can see only the orange/yellow weld while welding, and then nothing but black once you stop welding! This makes it hard for me to weld.
3) What is an auto darkening helmet? Does this mean the lens darkens automatically and you don't have to shake your head?Thanks!
