I have started researching multiprocess 120V welders. I'm using an old, junky, heavy, finicky, suitcase wire feed now and I need something better.
Primary application will be field welding exhaust tubing with .030 flux core.
Secondarily will be 1/8 or 3/32 6010 or 6011 for schedule 40 and the like from around 2" to 4".
If needed I can drag out a big machine, but a welder friend said these new inverter machines can cover all the lower end of this stuff. Being a generator power guy I can get any power I need on the job site but he said 120V is adequate most of the time and so convenient.
So the machines that fit the bill seem to be:
Multimatic 215
ESAB Rebel
Lincoln 210 MP
I am leaning towards the blue one at this point but want to get some more opinions.
