that mig is 425amp @ 60% duty and can use 5/64" or 2mm wire. I only use .035 but it can fluxcore weld code quality unimited thickness with fluxcore. (no codes for normal mig) I just love stick though because thats what I learned first and am certified in it. thanks for watching my videos.
well you know they say you can train a monkey to mig weld. guess thats why that joke of a human being jobbly thinks he is all spectacular with one....maybe hes the missing link!
I'm in the process of buying my first MIG. I'm pretty settled on the Millermatic 211, seems pretty versitile. Last weekend I stopped by Harbor Freight to see the Chinawelders. They're scary. The cheaper units ($300 range) have plastic drive components and cobbled-together guides. The next up ($5-600 range) had cast metal drive components but plastic tensioner. I'm all about buying cheap but this time around I'm going to buy something good. The China mini lathe and mill...so far so good....LOL!
If you want miller go to cyberweld,com they have wholesale prices no sales tax and free shipping. I have saved thousands buying from them, they have all miller and thermal dynamics and victor and its all warrantied and new and its a great place to get top shelf welding equipment.
I'm actually not looking to move around with it at all. I'm fixing my garage to get started with various projects and been looking at som eCHinese jobs for the MIG welders. There are some 150 Amp one that go for around 220$. which is not bad, except for the fact that they're chinese and probably will stop working after 6 months.
Don't buy this one unless you need to move around and do stuff on-site. That generator is 10.5 kw rated. and that setup is better suited to making sky scrapers with fcaw or something crazy like that. You will probably be better off getting a cheaper machine that is bigger and doesn't need a separate power source other than your existing generator. but if you wan't one buy mine I don't use it.
voltage sensitive clamp ? I am interested could I see a picture or get a link to where I can buy 1 of these ? please

How many KWs is that generator? My house is off grid and I'm using a 6.5 KW peak generator. I think that should be enough, right?
