Powerful welder, may need a larger breaker

Arrived a day early and works well so far. It is powerful enough to nearly max out a 9000-watt generator, with the heat turned most of the way up, so a 12–15 kW generator may be needed. A 50-amp breaker is also likely required.

Pros
  • + arrived a day early
  • + works nicely so far
  • + powerful
Cons
  • − may require a 50-amp breaker
  • − may need a 12–15 kW generator

Welder Performs Well on Aluminum Boat Project

This welder worked as expected on an aluminum boat transom, running 5356 wire through the lead without issues. The pulse function requires .040 aluminum wire, which is not available locally, so that feature has not been tested yet. Overall performance on the one project completed so far has been solid.

Pros
  • + Functions well on aluminum welding
  • + Runs 5356 wire without issues
Cons
  • − Pulse function requires .040 aluminum wire not available locally
  • − Pulse function untested
