I use a hf darkening welding helmet and hf angle grinder. Zero issues though I did have to switch out the brushes on the grinder after a year of heavy use. I'd buy another.

I liked your comment about the cylinder deactivation. I never drove one but I rode in a RAM 1500 that had it. If you listen carefully, you can hear it change from a V8 to a V4.
Still smooth though.
I have a 2005 Jeep GC  that has the 6.5 Hemi with cylinder deactivation and a five speed automatic  .18 mph highway  11.5 else where .

Hf is good enough. I had a wallyworld hood but it was so dark I couldn't see what I was doing.

I'm a very fair skinned Scandinavian--corn silk hair as a kid and watery blue eyes.  I burn up like a chicken in a bar-b-q.  The hf auto darkening helmet works OK for me IF I keep it set at full block and blink my eyes as I start an arc.  I weld only inside so use a bright LED flashlight to sight in for my welds.  Jack
