That thing looks like it doubles as a space helmet...take that bad boy on a space-x cruise! How much is that thing, $10k or sumsuch?
3M Speedglas 91 XX SW FX Darkening Welding Helmet w/Adflo, Hornell Speedglass | eBay
This is right now about the best buy for a new Add-Flow welding hood, they're usually around 2k, there is plenty of good used ones on ebay for a lot less. Another high point I like is adjustable welding shades. If I was well off and or if I had a big paying home welding job to do I'd get one, they're about the best welding hood around.
3M 51141561578 Adflo 36-11 1-2 SW PAPR with Speedglass Welding Helmet, 91 FX-Air and 91 X ADF, Standard, Black/Purple: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific
WeldingSupply 36-11 1-3 SW $1887.5

and here I am thinking I'm high rolling with my Vulcan welding helmet... 
That said, I really do like the Vulcan helmet... it is ridiculously clear compared to the normal cheapie auto darkening helmets. I was suckered in with an open box version for $105 so only 100% more $ than what I went in to get instead of 200%...

My Jackson boss helmet has adjustable darkening lens for welding, plus grinding option and gas cutting setting.

My apologies for being late in saying THANKS. The steel doesn't have to be preheated very much does it?

I think I'm high rolling and my HF helmet is one grade and a bunch of money below yours. I'd probably swell up and bust if I had a Vulcan.
