I have one of the 30 amp rtech cutters.
I wanted to make some quick holes in some (approx) 5mm steel today. Couldn't find my chuck key so got out the plasma.
This is a machine that claims something like 12mm severance, and it wouldn't even burn some holes in some 5mm plate.
I've used a friends Clarke before. Similar stats. Similar performance.
So what's with these inflated stats? I mean, can any of you cut 12mm steel with a 30amp machine?
