This looks like it may be a nice basic TIG machine, what are some of your thoughts? I would be using this for exhaust and cage welding possibly.

 

no 110 volt welder I have ever used I would call "good"
we use a PowerMig 215 and Precision Tig 275 both are 220
save your money and get a 220 welder and 220 outlet in your work area

 

their larger TIG machine is pretty damn nice for teh price

What was the price? Nothing listed on their site..

 

yeah i dont see any prices either. i'm kinda curious as to what those would run you. i got the miller 180. it rocks my world.

 

last time I checked, it was $2200 ready to weld.

This thing is in the same class as the Dynasty 200

 

here is the info on the HTP Invertig 201 that HTP sent me when i inquired about pricing. seems like a nice machine.

"The Invertig 201 is on sale for $2295. The price includes the power source, foot pedal, CK17 super flex tig torch, regulator, gas hose and the ground clamp. The Dynasty is 200 about the same price for the power source only. When you add the foot pedal, torch and regulator, the unit is about $2800.

The inverter has several advantages over the transformer based unit. The 180 (Miller Syncrowave 180) is going to draw about 70 amps out of the wall on your 220 volt outlet. The Invertig 201 will draw about 30. The 201 also has an adjustable AC frequency, which concentrates the heat and focuses the arc, giving you more professional results on aluminum. Further, you can adjust the AC balance over a much wider range that a conventional transformer unit - from 10% to 90% compared to about 45% to 65% on a Miller 180. This is important when you are trying to repair an oily aluminum casting."
