Yep Jackson equipment is great stuff.I have had this one for three years and no problem.Can't say good or bad on HF.
 
Got this one at HF

But after talking with some buddies,, they recommended I get a good one.
Only one set of eyes so I took it back and ordered a miller 7300 :)

$150 difference though :(
 
Yeah I looked at those at HF. The one I posted is 10 dollars cheaper
 
I just bought a a Miller "Digital Elite" series a few months ago and I'll never go back to the cheap stuff. 4 sensors prevent eye flash from differing welding angles, over 9 square inches of viewing area, 4 settings including cutting, welding and grinding....

Man what a difference! Not cheap, but I can weld for hours without eyestrain or getting flashed, the puddle is much more clear, smoke doesn't get into the mask as easily, better neck protection... I could go on and on....

BTW, I just got the plain satin black version. It doesn't show splatter or scratches as much as the fancy painted up stuff and it was on sale for 20% off retail.

Understood, I waited for years and years before I got this one and Good on Ink for helping out!!

Good MIG gloves shouldn't be much more than about 25 bucks. They have a much better "feel" than stick welding gloves. Just thought I'd throw that out there since you were asking about additional safety equipment.

Ok Thanks I can get them at a supply store
 
Don't forget to teach the pooch to cut the lawn so you can get more time on the Charger....
