Abstract
A welding helmet with a sensor-operated light and photochromic visor lens including a welding helmet body configured, sized, and shaped to cover and substantially conform to a welder's forehead. A frustoconical protrusion, integrated into a front side of the welding helmet body, houses a battery-operated LED light bulb. At least one photosensor is disposed proximal the protrusion. Upon the detection of a welding arc by the at least one photosensor, an auto-darkening filtered visor lens darkens and the LED light bulb in activated. A battery compartment, an on-off switch, and a microchip are disposed on a rear side of the welding helmet body. A padded length-adjustable strap is pivotally disposed across the rear side of the welding helmet body.
