The three basic types are the flip type which rolls back over the top of the head while inspecting work and can be dropped back into place with a simple nod of the head. The second type is the lift front, where the lens lifts to inspect work. This provides for ease of use while accuracy must constantly be assured while doing a job. The third type is the auto darkening which employs an electronic lens that changes auto-matically in 1/10,000 of a second from shade 5 to shade 10. On the cutting edge of technology the auto darkening helmet is now affordable to all who want this excellent time saving safety feature.
