Recently bought a Bergen one at a steam rally for a bit less than £30 Quite please with it for MIG, but I've never tried TIGging as I haven't got the kit (yet)

XXL motorbike hat, xl/xxl Barmah, & 7 5/8" tilley, and there's plenty of room left on the adjustment, unless of course I try and use it with one of the aforementioned items

I know one thing for sure - I should have bought one when I bought a mig welder 'cause I wouldn't have waisted so much gas by guessing.

The sip 2300 from toolstation is fine. It will go right down onto my ears - there is an adjustment to stop that too. Nice big window and 4 sensors. No external adjustment on that model. There is a 3 position switch inside instead to select the shade range. Weld, cut or grind.

Their chipping hammer looks pretty decent too. My old one is in a right state and was a bit light.
