this cool blue lense I seen it go for like 50 bucks I assume this is the same lense we're all talking about the company is think is aosafety.com

No there not the same .The one your are referring to is the new version. Which isn't as good in my opion.
Parent - - By chris2698 (****) Date 03-02-2008 22:26
so the orginal they no longer make? is there something that comes close to it?? i sure would like to give it a try. I use a shade 11 glass with a gold lense that is green and so far that is the best I have found that helped me to tig weld but hey if there is something even better I'm all for it. Can you tell me, a lense I see some are made out of glass which I have and some are like this plastic. Which is better the glass or plastic? I know the glass is a little heavier thats about it. I mean the plastic wouldn't hurt the performance any would it? Thanks

Chris

The new weld cool lens is polycarbonate. The color of the puddle is yellowish opposed to  a blue puddle which the original weld cool lens has.They also only make shades 10 and 12 both are on the lighter side. A regular jackson lens is pretty good.

thats what I have is the jackson shield with the big window but I took out the green lense and put some other brand of a gold lense in

I do think the new weld cool lens is better than the standard green or the gold lens. It'll take out any of the orange color caused by the sodium flare which is easier on the eyes. I weld every day so if I hear of something that might be better than what I am using I usually will buy it. If it isn't, you usually can sell it to someone on the job site or just give it away. At least you tried. The other thing about the weld cool lens - it only comes in a  2x4.25 lens so you would have to get a new hood. You can buy the new ones through Airgas for around $30.

yeah that is what I'm learning there aren't for the big window shields. I may have to give it a try. Thanks
