The new r tech digital dc tig

[c4tini]

Hello
Just noticed that r tech have a new 200a digital tig that comes with a free foot pedal. It caught my eye as it is nearly the same price as the 200a with a foot pedal.
Anyone used one?
My mind was made up on the regular 200a dc tig but I want a foot pedal so for a little extra do you think it's worth it?
Also how come the 160a dc tig doesn't take a foot pedal but looks to have the socket??

I brought one of these, before the offer.
Not used the pedal yet but I did want the option to progress on to that.
But the TIG is lovely to use, I`m still learning but I`m impressed so far and I haven't even started playing with the slope or pulse settings yet.
All I really want for it is a water cooler and smaller water cooled torch, as the standard WP26 is a bit cumbersome
