Review: very good product - excellent, the right size and very functional
Review: Very pleased with this thing - Obviously it’s a gonna be a little on the harder side to install because you’re cutting your hood but it’s not rocket science. The gap for installing your lenses is pretty narrow but I’m not big on auto lenses. I haven’t had any lenses fall out either. Overall, it seems really well made and it allows me to grind with a hood on without safety squints. It does add weight to your hood but it’s not bad. I recommend it if you’re a diy kinda person or a single hand welder
