[QUOTE="tomlad, post: 9277617, member: 11310"] Im sure there was 2 a few weeks ago but one model now . I chose the bigger one. I think there streamlining the range as less mig and tig models now . Double boost ,utube, john mills has been raving about rteck for years. My previous air cooled tyiang stick wouldn't run in the new shed im working on, trip the mcb after about 10 seconds welding. Works fine in main workshop. The rteck has i think tripped it once ,i had to run it alot on high for it to trip the mcb in the distribution board , basically i was trying to make it blow , or indeed break it. The welder has not cut out at all yet . Running 3.25 rods on 90 amps . My only faults is the short leads and it upsets my radio 📻. By getting machine close enough or dangling it off stuff ive managed fine . Would i use it as main welder dunno . Is it useful to have absolutely 💯 💯 My first go to is mig in workshop. Have to add , i thought id have to take my mig to this shed job as i couldn't do all the stuff with stick , probably im not good enough 😕. Done all with stick and enjoying it. Only barsteward is horizontal upside 🙃, under a cross member. No idea why so hard to get even penatration or respectable looking weld. I am happy with the welder, and for the money 👍 Have a youtube search for doubleboost r tech reviews [/QUOTE]
