Thread: Pretty impressed with my PowerTIG 200DX

    Default Pretty impressed with my PowerTIG 200DX

    I finally got home and had a chance to play with my 200DX. I had to wire in a plug, and had a few issues with that. Once I got that squared away, plugged in my welder. Nothing.

    I called tech support and apparently I wired the plug wrong on the welder. Re-wired the plug, turned it on, and I was in business.

    I bought a shield, and gloves. I had some 6011 1/8 rods I had from work. Hooked everything up, and started burning rods. I'll have to say, this thing welds sweet. I can't wait to start to TIG on in in the next couple of days. I have to get a bottle of gas, then I'll be in business.

    Also, I don't think the torch is too big for me. So I am good to go!

    So far, very impressed. I heard technical support sucked. That's a lie. All my stuff will be green from now on.

    Thanks again Everlast. You have my vote.

    Ahhh...yes, the plug issue. I am working on a video that will deal with how to wire all our units.

    When you start using the TIG make sure you post an update ... The 200DX is the unit I'm planning on buying as soon as I qualify for the 25% discount ... wish I didn't have to wait. As far as wiring goes ... Just remember ... "green is ground, the world around" Sorry I couldn't help myself LOL

    We had a guy years ago that would air brush and eagle of anything you like. Did not get over big. My son has a Ford blue wants to paint one in, but I will not let him. I do have an old CK 140 MIG/TIG (monster) I can let him paint. Trying to sell it. New paint might do it.

    Glad 225 is enjoying the new welder. Post up some picture if you get time.

    Scary, I like purple myself (but on a old hot rod).

    I am a LSU fan and everything I have is purple and gold.

    I like the green. But the green forum is too much. Since I own vBulletin forums, y'all outta let make a new style. I'll email y'all the XML file, and tell me what yall think.

    I thought he was talk about the welder color?

    Sure send it over and instructions. Can we add it as an extra theme? Then people can pick. Believe it or not, people like this as well and it has grown on me as well. You know you are on the Everlast forum.

    You're not kidding. Can't miss it - even from across the house!
    Is it OK to want to break something just so that you can weld it back together?

    You should have seen the color scheme about a year and a half ago. (It's much improved now.)

    I like the green! I am a member of MANY web forums and this is by far the easiest on the eyes. I'm interested in how you like the 200dx as I am also thinking of using my 25% off discount on that unit (maybe). But I guess that depends on if I actually get to 100 or not

    Can't do it, Rod. Can you imagine the backlash if these forums went all purple? LOL
