Whilst waiting to be served in the BOC depot, I was looking at the Jasic range that they now sell. I'm interested in buying another mig to supplement my others. I like the idea of an inverter set due to its relatively light weight and the main use would be to take out of the workshop to do jobs at other premises. I find it increasingly difficult to lift either of my transformer sets into the back of the Land-Rover due to weight and height of lift.
My only concern was that the smaller 'portable' (i.e. non-wheeled) sets only take the 5 kg reels of wire. Due to the vast knowledge of those who follow this forum, I thought I would ask if anyone knows of a set that will take 15 kg reels and still be in the realms of being a lift-able set. My reasoning behind this request is that a relatively light welder even with a 15 kg reel of wire will be a lot lighter and easier to lift. I'm not too fused about make as have an eclectic range of welders at present.
