Bought an Optrel VegaView 2.5 helmet
Bought an Optrel VegaView 2.5 helmet, Had very little use in two years.
started welding on the tig, 10 minutes in the auto dim stopped working
changed batteries, did nothing
next day, working again, again for 10 minutes.
tried contacting optrel for help, no replies
emailed, faceboook, twitter, nothing.
did a search online for solutions and found a lot of people with the same issue. seems like optrel is focused on brining out new models than fixing problems with existing head units. clearly there is a design fault as so many are complaining about the same issues.
feel duped into handing over such a large amount for someone that is now worthless.
will buy a 3m next time.
