Improve Precision with the Sunstone Halo™

The Sunstone Halo™ Auto-Darkening Lens System is designed specifically for permanent jewelry welding, giving artists a crystal-clear view of every weld while keeping their workspace open, organized, and efficient. Featuring an advanced auto-darkening welding lens, 5x magnification, 33 integrated LED lights, and a fully adjustable articulating arm, Halo helps you achieve consistent, high-quality welds with greater comfort and confidence.

Whether you operate a busy permanent jewelry studio, travel to pop-up events, or weld at weddings and private parties, the Sunstone Halo adapts seamlessly to your workflow.

Designed for Permanent Jewelry Professionals

Precision is everything when creating permanent jewelry. Even the smallest weld requires excellent visibility, stable positioning, and reliable eye protection. The Sunstone Halo combines all three into one professional-grade system.

Unlike traditional welding shields or bulky magnifying solutions, Halo offers a lightweight, space-saving design that keeps your work area accessible while providing optimal protection and visibility.

The articulating arm allows you to position the lens exactly where you need it, reducing fatigue and making it easier to weld bracelets, necklaces, anklets, and custom jewelry pieces.

Key Benefits of the Sunstone Halo™

The Halo was developed to help permanent jewelry artists work faster, more accurately, and more comfortably.

Superior Visibility

The integrated 5x magnification lens provides a detailed view of every weld point, helping you create cleaner, more precise welds with less eye strain.

Automatic Eye Protection

The professional auto-darkening lens instantly switches from Shade 2.5 to Shade 12 whenever a weld is triggered, providing continuous UV and IR protection throughout every welding session.

Bright Integrated LED Lighting

With 33 cool-white LED lights, the Halo illuminates your workspace evenly, making it easier to weld in studios, retail environments, salons, trade shows, and mobile event locations.

Fully Adjustable Positioning

The multi-articulating aluminum arm features six adjustment points, adjustable tension, and 360° lens rotation, allowing you to position the viewing lens exactly where it best suits your workflow.

Open, Ergonomic Workspace

Unlike handheld shields or fixed lenses, Halo keeps your hands free while maintaining an uncluttered workstation. This improves efficiency during long welding sessions and high-volume appointments.

Built for Mobile and Studio Permanent Jewelry Businesses

Permanent jewelry professionals often work in different environments throughout the week. The Halo is equally suited for:

  • Permanent jewelry studios
  • Retail jewelry stores
  • Beauty salons
  • Pop-up events
  • Trade shows
  • Weddings
  • Private events
  • High-volume permanent jewelry businesses

Its lightweight aluminum construction and compact design make transportation simple while maintaining professional durability.

Increase Productivity and Improve Your Workflow

Clear visibility directly impacts welding accuracy. Poor lighting or awkward viewing angles can slow production, increase mistakes, and require unnecessary rework.

The Sunstone Halo streamlines your workflow by providing:

  • Better visibility of every weld
  • Faster client turnaround
  • Improved welding consistency
  • Reduced repositioning during service
  • Greater comfort during extended welding sessions
  • More confidence when working with delicate chains

Whether you're serving dozens of customers at a busy event or creating custom jewelry in your studio, Halo helps maintain speed without compromising quality.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the Orion mPulse PRO and the Orion mPulse?

If you're doing fine jewelry work, like welding jump‑rings, thin chains, delicate metals (small items, gold/silver, maybe small copper pieces), the regular Orion mPulse is often enough: precise, clean welds, good for “standard” permanent jewelry or light repair.

If you expect heavier use, or want to weld thicker/heavier metals, larger pieces, mixed metals or tougher tasks (e.g. chain repair beyond basic chains, small manufacturing, more load‑bearing welds), the PRO is more future‑proof: higher power lets you handle tougher jobs, more range gives flexibility, and you won’t quickly outgrow the machine.

For a mixed workshop where you sometimes need small delicate welds and other times stronger welds — the PRO gives you flexibility, whereas the regular weld is more limited to lighter jobs.

What metals can I weld with this machine?

The Orion mPulse is designed primarily for precious metals like gold, silver, and platinum. The PRO version can also handle slightly heavier metals, mixed alloys, and small copper/brass plates. Very thick metals (>3 mm) may require multiple pulses or another welder designed for industrial metal.

How precise are the welds? Can I control the energy?

Both models offer precise energy control: fine increments at lower energy (under ~15 J), and 1 J increments above that. This allows delicate control for small chains while enabling stronger welds on heavier pieces with the PRO version.

What safety features does it have?

  • Digital pulse control prevents overheating.
  • Grounding clip ensures electrical safety.
  • Minimal spatter reduces burn risk.
  • Short pulse duration keeps heat localized.

Always wear protective eyewear when welding.

How portable is it? Can I use it at pop-up events?

Both units are relatively compact and lightweight. The mPulse is easier to move for small setups, while the PRO is slightly larger due to additional power. Both can work on a portable table, but ensure access to a grounded outlet.

What about maintenance and consumables?

  • Electrodes: Tungsten electrodes are consumables; lifespan depends on weld volume.
  • Maintenance: Keep the stylus and grounding clip clean; check connections regularly.
  • Support: Sunstone offers replacement parts, support guides, and consumables globally.
