Features
- GUARANTEES
- All Ridge Products Royal Series 1. 0 Lenses come with a list of guarantees. They come with a 90-Day money back guarantee, so you can get a refund on the lens after 89 days for literally any reason. They also come with a full 1 year warranty, which gets you a completely free replacement lens (you don't even pay for shipping) in the event any issues happen with your welding lens. , WARNING FOR TIG WELDERS
- These lenses aren't recommended to weld below 90A on TIG welding. They will slowly lose battery, and will start flashing you. You can still do TIG welding, just don't do exclusively low amperage TIG with this lens, and if you do exclusively low amperage TIG welding we recommend buying our 'King Single 2. 0' lens, which works perfectly with TIG. , MANY SHADES
- The Royal Series 1. 0 Single Shade Lenses come in shade 9 - 13, so you can have the right shade for whatever job you're doing. If you feel like upgrading, we do offer adjustable lenses, which are adjustable for shades 5-13 (all in one lens). If you'd like to see more info on those, scroll to the bottom of the page. , IMPROVED BUILD QUALITY
- These 1. 0 lenses have had a huge upgrade compared to other lenses. These have extremely tight tolerances + QC, so they ALWAYS are aligned perfectly. You'll NEVER see double through these lenses. Plus they're built to last forever. Other lenses break quickly, and start rattling. This never will happen with this lens, and if it does you can you can get a free replacement for up to a year with your warranty. , SOLAR POWERED - SELF RECHARGE
- These auto darkening welding lenses have built in batteries, and solar panels. The solar panels recharge the lens, so you never need to worry about batteries again. Note that the solar panels don't charge in the sun, but charge just by welding. Your weld arc recharges the auto welding lens, so you never need to manually recharge the lens either. The batteries eventually die, but they are cheap and easy to find. They are CR1025 batteries.
