Well we have an all new contest. PLEASE read ALL rules carefully. This will be one of the best prizes yet.
December 3 2011- March 3 2012 Contest
Still under wraps…but we’re going to give it away anyway.
This time we are giving away our all new PowerTIG 200EXT (value of 2095.00 retail). We’ve kept the latest version of the EXT in our lineup under wraps for some time. Official reveal date is scheduled for Mid January.
It will compete nicely with any digital, microprocessor controlled TIG on the market. This unit will have the ultimate in features such as wave form control, improved foot pedal design, and even an available thumb control for amperage on this unit (to be ordered additionally). Add in some features like self-diagnosing capability, and adjustable hot start for stick, the unit is top of the line in what it offers. Of course output will be around 200 amps with about 35% duty cycle at maximum amperage. We aren’t ready to pull the curtain back just yet for the final reveal, (got to keep the competition guessing as long as we can). But we can tell you that along with all the standard features you’d expect and the ones mentioned above, there will be a surprise or two still. It’ll be similar to the work horse 250EXT but it will have its own unique character. We are once again raising minimum posting requirement to complete 100 posts during the contest. Yes, this contest will be longer, and so it should require more posts. We don’t think we will disappoint though on what we deliver. Project posts with pictures and details will also count as entries. This time, we are wanting to focus on projects, in particular, home made tools, and items you use to help out in the shop, at work or around the house. Up to 6 projects will be allowed.
As always, we want DETAILS. Don’t try to get out easy by posting single picture and say here is my project. We want thoughtful and helpful information…We will and can disqualify entries that are not in the spirit of the competition. Odds were pretty good last time for the qualifiers to win, and all won a discount.
Oh, and did we mention we’ll throw in a pass or two to SEMA for next year? You provide the transportation and lodging though.
Also good for extra entries, counting one each:
1) Like on Facebook
2) Subscribe to our YouTube channel “EverlastGenerators”
3) Follow us on Twitter
1) Spamming, saying, good job, cool project, etc. is strongly discouraged and subject to being removed, causing your post count to go down.
2) Be courteous; don’t make fun of a project. The quality of the project may vary, due to people’s skill level. IF you see something that needs improvement, say so constructively, with a possible solution.
To sum up:
10 entry’s are possible.
1. You will need 100 additional posts for official eligibility during the contest. (1 qualifying entry)
2. Liking our Facebook page, joining our Youtube channel orfollowing us on Twitter each count as additional separate entries. (Subject to meeting the minimum 100 post count requirement) (additional 3 entries possible)
3. Up to 6 projects home tool or metal related can be entered as additional entries. Posts for the projects can count toward meeting your 100 post minimum requirement, but will not be counted until the requirement is met. (additional 6 entries possible)

6) By the end of the contest, you must have 100 MORE posts than you have at the beginning. In other words, if you have 10 at the beginning of the contest, you must have 110 at the end, not just 100 total posts.
