    Default A few of my first welds with the I-MIG 200.....

    These are not great but I will get better. Just need some practice and pointers.
    One HUGE problem I have is that I cannot see what I'm welding. I've adjusted the helmet everywhere and nothing works.
    I'm basically guessing at what I'm doing....Any idea on that?
    I did order a Fabricator helmet so maybe that will help.

    These are on 1/8" material: 17.6 volts, 205ipm wire speed, Arc Force at 1/4 on.
    They seem cold then get hot so I'm thinking more voltage and faster speed.


    These are also on the same 1/8" material: Voltage is cranked to max, speed was cranked to max Arc Force still at 1/4 on.


    These are on 16 gauge material: 16.4 volts, 200 ipm speed, 1/4 Arc Force.
