A good glycol antifreeze plays better with the different metals in the cooling loop, I'd have thought. Certainly works for loads of tig sets around the world. Anti corrosion additives etc. If it works, fair play, but you're saying it doesn't work all that well, so maybe a possible cause.Deionised water and isopropyl alcohol.
Wp9 and 17 flex torch heads are far more flexable than the wp20 versions. That is the reason I do not use my cooler or wp20.There is practically no other benefit to gas cooled,
Given I'm getting a foot pedal, is it still worth getting a switch on the torch?
Yes learn to use button first. Pedal difficult to use if you stuck in a corner under something!

That gas deal, if it's £150/5 years for a 50l full size cylinder, is an absolute steal of a deal. I think my monthly rental is about £8-£9, and similar refill costs. A 50 litre cylinder for hobby use is glorious overkill, you even stand a chance of making it last the entire 5 years... maybe. lol

They all seem like sound investments, not frittering away. And every small holder needs an acdc tig.its amazing* what you will need to fix.It is a wee bit warm, my credit card rarely sees the light of day so I bought it while it was blinded by the light.
I got a small lump sum when my BT pension kicked in, most of it was squandered on the new porch, fencing, dry stone walls, concreting the driveway and other farm improvements. I frittered away the remainder on the TIG
