Did you leave it in the garage over the winter frosts? They really don't like the cold so I'm led to believe from an old thread.
Sorry that doesn't help much, but it might save the next one.

I just bought one for £22 delivered from ebay. It is awesome, so much better than my standard helmet. I think the seller was something like
'Debbies Tools'.

I got a Parweld one for about £50. Solar Powered, variable shade, and its pretty lightweight and comfortable. I got it from
diywelding
But try weldequipe as I know he does these and he's pretty competitive and is good service. welders@supanet.com if you want to contact him.
He's freindly and helpful so just ask him what he's got.
Cheers

thanks for the replys ,my welding helmet has done two years cold winters in the garage so guess it will be going in the bin .
£50.00 for a solar one sounds like a good deal .
