I'm looking into a powered respirator, Airmaster 30, Trend Airshield, etc. Does any one have a reommendation?
 
Triton Air Helmet

I have been using the Triton since the first of the year and have been pleased with the results since they changed the air hose for a more flexible one. It combines air filtering, head and face protection, and hearing protection for a reasonable price.
 
I have been using an "Air-Mate 3" by Racal Health and Safety, inc. and I love it. The air over the face plate always seems cool and fresh and the blower on the back is never in the way.
 
I just ordered a 3M AS-200 powered respirator. I about choked on seeing the price but better to choke on the price than a lungful of fine wood dust. (My wife said I could buy it so neener neener neener!)
