Looking for a new TIG set, what to get?

[ProCage]

So where to buy Tetrix from as cheap as the keppi come on someone must have a contact for that magic best deal price

I read on another forum that somebody bought one at united welding supplies in norwich and got a very good deal.

I got mine from United Welding Hitchin

So they are well over a £1000 more, so are they really worth that much more?

 

[Tigman]

your best bet is to try a few machines , get some demos under your belt . I cant compare my machine with any of the others because Ive not tryed any , I had a Cebora Tig Uno (transformer) before and Tetrix is in a different league all together , i was offered it for a week to try it out and I was hooked ! didnt think about the money Buy Now Worry Later

 

[ProCage]

Yeah totally agree but no one is willing to let me demo these machines they class them as too high of price to be letting out the door.. only other option is to find someone local that has one as go round for a cup of tea.

Wish there was some videos of the machines so i could see the difference, this is a pain in the ****, i have money burning a hole in my pocket here haha.

Unless someone can tell me why the EWM is worth £1k more then a kemppi i guess my mind is made up.

 

[Tigman]

If you were closer you`d be welcome to have a go !

How are they over £1000 more? How much is the kemppi like.

I've seen the EWM for £3000.
A few times. Certainly not a thousand pounds difference to the kemppi.

http://www.rapidwelding.com/dynamic/DisplayItem.aspx?c=6162300P&zl=3

Thats £2200 plus VAT ( £2640 )

 

[ProCage]

Can I have the link to the EWM for £3300 please?

ok So if they are £3300 then £660 difference

*EDIT: if its the £3300 from United Welding then that price is Plus VAT, so actually £3960inc vat

Kemppi £2640
EWM £3960
= £1320 difference, unless my maths is not correct :P

 

[Tigman]

I didnt pay that much ! and I claimed the Vat back

 

[ProCage]

I should very much mention that I'm NOT VAT registered so sadly I will be paying the VAT... BOOOoooooo lol

So any price on here should be discussed in full valve, i.e inc the VAT lol

 

[ProCage]

Kemppi ordered thanks for all the help guys :-) will let you know how I get on with it, got the r11f foot pedal with it also, and the tl210 CK Torch rated to 200amps, first project is to make a nice trolley :-)
