Eric,
I don't know that I'd worry about it. HarborFreight has the auto
darkening helmets
starting at about $50. I bought an auto darkening insert, for my
standard helmet,
when they first came out say about 20 yrs ago. I also bought a Harbor Freight
auto darkening helmet for my son to use. I have no complaints about the HF
helmet and the spec.s are as good as the high end insert I bought for
well over
2x the price and 15 yrs before.
