282001 - Miller Digital Performance Blue Rage Auto-Darkening Helmet

Professional-Grade Digital Welding Protection

The Miller Digital Performance Blue Rage Welding Helmet (SKU: 282001) is engineered for professional welders who demand precision, versatility, and comfort. This mid-range helmet in the Miller lineup bridges the gap between hobbyist gear and heavy-industrial equipment, offering high-end features such as digital controls and multiple operating modes. The core of this helmet is its 7.22 square inch viewing area, which provides ample visibility for complex joints and out-of-position welding. The lens technology is supported by three independent arc sensors that detect the arc in 1/20,000 of a second, ensuring immediate protection and reducing eye fatigue over long shifts.

Versatility is a key strength of the Digital Performance series. The helmet features three distinct modes: Weld, Cut, and Grind. The Weld mode offers a shade range of #8-13, suitable for most MIG, Stick, and TIG applications. The Cut mode provides shades #5-8, ideal for plasma cutting and oxy-fuel processes. The Grind mode locks the lens in a light state of #3.5, allowing operators to prep surfaces without removing the helmet. This seamless transition between tasks improves workflow efficiency and safety compliance.

For precision TIG welders, the low-amperage rating is a critical specification. This helmet is rated for TIG welding down to 5 Amps, preventing the lens from flickering or failing to darken during low-intensity arcs. The digital interface allows for exact adjustments to sensitivity and delay (0.10 – 1.0 sec), giving the user complete control over the lens response based on the environment and process. The unit is powered by two lithium batteries with solar assist, offering an impressive 3,000 hours of battery life. Included with the helmet are 5 outside cover lenses, 2 inside cover lenses, and a helmet bag, ensuring you have the consumables needed to maintain optimal visibility.
