Miller 400x or lincolne vantage 400

[Vmac]

Any one used the above machine's found a miller big blue just over 2000 hours 3 and a half grand , the lincolne just short of three thousand hours double the price , would be used for mainly mobile mig work , pro/ cons of both any help would be great . Ps lincolne has the wire feed unit included .

I'd be tempted to go for the Miller, and use the money saved to buy a new suitcase feeder from Tech Arc.

 

[Vmac]

What sort of money's in the tech arc wire feed jim ??

 

[Jim Davey]

Probably about a grand by the time you've added some cables and a torch.

Cheers jim sent an email to tech arc .

Really do like the look of the lincolne and not seen any bad press about them , but is it worth double what the miller is ! Hmm
