i bought the welder last time they had them in, although i think it is 140amp not the 160 they are currently selling.
had mine a few years now and its had plenty of use, stuff dropped on it, etc. and i cant fault it. was using it for a few hours yesterday afternoon infact.
brilliant bit of kit for the money, not much good for car bodywork but for heavier stuff its great, i modified my security post for behind the cossie on the drive yesterday. last week i repaired a spade lol.
oh, and mine had a 13amp plug on the end, 30 amp dedicated spur? bollocks if you ask me!
my clarke mig pro 180 should have a 16a supply and plug, but i just chopped it off and put a 13a on, probably not the best solution in the world but its been fine for over 12 months so far, and how often do you run the welder flat out?
