My tig welder is an everlast tig. It works ok for what it is. I say ok because at class I'm using a miller syncrowave 250 and then I come home and use the everlast and there is a world of difference. It's something I can get used to, but to say there is a night and day difference is an understatement to say the least. I bought the everlast used so am not opposed to that at all. I have 220v all over my shop so that's not a problem. And I can reasily add a new 220v circuit if needed. I believe I paid $600 for the everlast about 5-6 years ago. At the time it was still there newer model they had for sale. The guy that had it made stainless tanks for breweries. He and his buds started a band and after one gig they decided to all quit their jobs and go on the road. I've always wondered what happened to him.
There is a lincoln weld pac 155 and he has some other stuff for sale. The 155 is $300. They guy says I can test before I buy. I was kind of waiting to talk with my instructor before looking at it to get her opinion. I think the 155 is total amps. I was kinda looking for about 180 or higher, but $300 for a brand name welder is pretty tempting. But it must not be too great a deal, it's been listed for 19 days. I really trust my instructor. She works 6 ours a day at her regualr job and teached 4 night a week for 4 hours and she is in charge of the welding shop where she works even though she is only part time. I feel like I'm her special project because of how much she helps me. She knows I've got the nova and the 55 and her and her bf are into old cars. She can't afford one now, but is hoping one day she can.
The everlast migs seem to be more expensive than the primeweld, And the primeweld has a spool gun.
