seems to work great Rating:4 out of 5 stars just tested it out last night on an old bike frame I found. Seems to work great. I ran it on low power (15 amps) and ran a couple beads with it plugged into my apartment power outlet (was welding out on the fire escape). One thing that’s a little annoying is that there is a three position switch for ‘low power’ ‘Off’ and ‘High power’. ‘Off’ is the center position of the switch and it’s a little hard to be sure if you’ve turned the thing off or if you switched it to high power. That’s a little dangerous, but I just unplug it too if I’m going to be messing around. I think it’s great for the price, I’m just going to be doing hobby stuff (making robots, etc).
