ac/dc welder options

[jonjones91]

hi guys ive been lurking around these forums for quite a while and im hoping you guys can help me with a decision.
ive been using my r tech pro mig 250 for the last few years and have been much impressed but im now looking to purchase tig machine
i will still be doing the same 3mm mild and 3mm ally that ive been doing with the 250 mig and spool gun.

ive been watching @doubleboost videos on youtube and have been looking at r tech ac/dc 170 but im struggiling to push the button and buy one
should i also be considering the jassic 200p?
altho its an analog machine has the extra amperage and is also cheeper
my budget is around £1000-1300 is there any other machines i should be considering ?
stealth
tec arc
parweld
i hope you guys can help
thanks jon

I was in the same position a few years ago, I went for the R Tech 201AC/DC I've not regretted going for the extra amps at all.
Personally after reading about the 'Jasic incident' a few years ago, the orange machine where soon dismissed.
Then there's the Sherman incident from the other thread.......

@AnthonyExmouth , went through this recently.

Maybe check his threads, and ask what he thinks.

Well I have both the Jasic 200 mini and the Parweld xtt 212 and will be doing a yotube shortly comparing them. Both have plus and minuses so my choice would be who can deliver the service you require
