Need a cheap hood, but a Selstrom from Napa. Good view port, durable unit, user adjustable autodark LCD. Little on the heavy side but it’s a GOOD hood for the price.

I’d say geet a Speedglas but they’re costly and probably WAY over what you’d need. Even my cheapy SL is ~$280, my newest one is a 9100xx and was $460, and my ventlab bio-filtered unit was over $1200.
