New guy here. Nice site. I enjoy the information and laid back attitude!

I've been researching the Everlast line and have a couple of questions on TIG machines:

1. Which TIG units and Multi-Process units have the 5 amp start capability on AC? I can't seem to find those specs. I'm most interested in tig welders rather than multi-process but will consider both.

2. What will be the advantages/features of the new (not yet available) 250 EX-T over it's counterpart? I do know it has the membrane panel controls, etc. My question is really on features and/or functions. Also will it have a more traditional type torch (Weldcraft, etc)?

Thanks for the help.
