Hi, I've been reading posts on this excellent forum for a while.
My ancient SIP 130 has died and I've received the VAT free day invite from MM over Christmas so looking to get a Clarke as they seem to get good reviews here. No matter how I try I really can't justify a Portamig.
So I was thinking that as I've got some wire, disposable gas & regulator from my SIP, I could get the 160EN gas/gasless model to give me the option of gasless.
Either that or the 151TE gas only model.
However I'm confused as the 160EN states that it can handle 0.6/0.9 wires but no mention of 0.8. The pdf manual on the MM site seems to say the same but then on the settings page it shows settings for 0.6 & 0.8 gas and 0.9 gasless wires.
If someone on here has one of the 160EN models can they confirm that it will handle 0.6, 0.8 & 0.9 mm wires.
Thanks,
Steve.
