best ac dc also mma in 110v

[clownfish]

Please can anyone suggest an ac dc mma inverter in a 110v form that will
also burn a 4 mm rod, it would also have to run from a generator, im looking
for a good quality product with good back up. ( any suggestions) money is
not an issue cheers clownfish.

Look at the Millers and Lincolns. They run on 110 and are usually also genny compatible. Both are A grade machines. Most European manufacturers don't run on 110.

Oh, BTW, do you have a 3 phase genny or are you looking at the single phase machines?

Hi there ntwoO. it would have to be 110v single phase or my other option is
mig mag 230v if it could also do dc tig that would also be an advantage
cheers for the quick reply (clownfish)

There are quite a few MIG/TIG combo's on the market. Strange specs. 110 AC/DC TIG or 230 MIG/ DC TIG. What are your plans that suit this need? MIG machines that can weld Aluminium neatly are usually not cheap.

Hello,
It seems that the lincoln V205-T would meet all your requirements,

I have one and would recommend to anyone,

Good luck with the search.

You will have a very limited welding output on 110v.

Usually only a maximum of around 90-110 amps on 110v, which is no way enough for a 4.0mm Electrode.

I think the Lincoln uses its inverter technology to do the 200 amps on 110 or 220. The american plugs can handle more amps, I guess.

US Plugs are 15 amps. you can get a dedicated 20A. There is a 30 amp dedicated plug used for RV's and found on very few generators. If the generator has a 30A 20V plug, you could probably get an adapter.

If you look at the specs, like the 205T, it is limited to 150A TIG at 110V and draws 34 amps. On Stick it is limited to 110A.

Thanks for the info.

You will need a decent supply for the 110v whatever you choose, 32a supply.
The 16a supplies just dont do it.
