The UPDATED line of welders and then some...

[performance]

Well,
Its been a long time coming for some of you. You've wanted to see them. You wanted to know what they look like. So, here they are...Paint still cooling.

This isn't the complete line as we are adding products to our Power I-MIG and adding 2 dedicated stick welders to the product line up.

But you can get the idea. We have tried to unify our product line in layout and function so that less confusion over operation will exist...though there may be some still...there always is. We will try to make the wait and anguish time as short as possible. We estimate 2weeks before they ship from CA. Possibly 3...just trying to be on the safe side.

It has taken a bit longer to make some changes, thanks to a two week chinese holiday, a couple of our own and some serious hard work to get it right. But we feel it is better to wait a little longer to get things right. We have added a few features such as a lift arc on the 250 EX, and a post flow timer on the Power plasmas which will allow you to adjust post-flow cooling to increase consumable and torch life, and a couple of other features that will improve overall function of the welders.

We, of course, will be continuing to improve our welder line and fine tune our products to meet and surpass our customers expectations.

We will soon have another major announcement/introduction as far as our welder line goes though it is a little ways out and about to enter the testing phase. So stay tuned.....

Here are a couple more.

Looks good. Are the knobs different colors to signify what their usage is for, ie. green for AC, blue for plasma, yellow for DC, etc.? Not like I know what the colors are assigned to but just asking.

The color grouping is for easy identification. We have added a couple of non cosmetic changes as well...Which is why we have gotten a little more delayed than we were planning originally. The 250 EX has a lift arc start added for the Tig...

Green are generally adjustments related to the panel control of the weld cycle.
Red are amperage related.
Yellow are AC.
Blue are pulse.
Black switches are function selectors.

These are standard colors we have picked in our fist generation to represent our functions and should make it easy for the new welder to "learn" the product.

I know the green arc force control is not amperage coded, but it should be for final delivered product. These are the first "proofs" that we received before final assembly. So, we have taken a couple more steps in making the arrangement of the knobs and features more finely tuned.

Wow, quite a styling change.

I like the addition of "lift-start" TIG on the 250EX.

I'm saving my pennies.

whats the benefit of having 'lift start' vs. high freq. start?
