Miller FS-9 ClearLight 2x4 Auto-Darkening Lens Fixed Shade 9

Stop Squinting, Start Seeing the Puddle

If you are still flipping your hood down and hoping you are lined up correctly, it is time for an upgrade. The Miller FS-9 ClearLight™ Auto-Darkening Lens is the perfect drop-in replacement for that old piece of dark glass in your favorite 2x4 hood. Whether you are rocking a classic Pipeliner, a Tigerhood, or any standard passive helmet, this lens brings modern tech to your trusty gear. The biggest game-changer here is the ClearLight™ technology. We aren't talking about that murky green view you are used to with older auto-lenses. ClearLight™ lets you see the weld puddle in high definition with natural colors, so you can distinguish the molten pool from the slag and the base metal with incredible ease.

Forget about fumbling with tiny batteries or worrying if your lens is going to die in the middle of a bead. The FS-9 is completely solar-powered. It charges off the arc and ambient light, so it is always ready to work when you are. It features a Fixed Shade 9, which is the sweet spot for a lot of general MIG and Stick work. When you aren't welding, the lens sits at a bright Shade 3, giving you enough visibility to grind, prep, or move around the shop without constantly flipping your hood up. This saves your neck from the constant "nod" and keeps you safer by keeping your eyes protected more often.

Installation is a breeze—it just slides right into the retaining frame of your helmet's 2" x 4.25" opening. With two arc sensors, it catches the arc fast (1/3,600 of a second), protecting your eyes instantly. It is built tough to meet ANSI and CSA standards and comes with Miller's 3-year warranty, so you know it can handle the heat of the job site. If you want the comfort of your old-school hood but the performance of a modern auto-darkener, the FS-9 is the upgrade you have been waiting for.
