    Default No connectors on torch?

    WP20 I ordered just arrived, checked the package to make sure UPS didn't screw up it up (box end was mashed) and the torch, consumables kit is there, but there's just the DINSE, no connectors on either water line or gas. No big deal on the water lines, I need to come up with ends for a cooler or hose anyhow, but the Ar line? I thought that would be there...

    Straight handle, flex neck design. Water cooled. 15 ft. Rated: 250 Amps DC, 175 Amps AC @ 100% duty cycle.2T/4T remote switch included (finger switch). Excellent choice for areas where maneuverability and compactness is required. Plug and play for all Everlast TIG units with the 35-70 style Dinse connectors. Suitable for use with most National brands with the 35//70 Dinse style power connector. Slight modification of the standard quick connect gas connection may be required with some national brands. Water connections are quick connect for use with Everlast Water coolers. Small consumable starter kit included. Tungsten not included.

    Are they supposed to be bare ends or was something missed at the factory?

    Default Torch connectors

    I do not think it comes with the gas quick connect male end as some welders do not use a quick connect. My extra torch did not have one on it either. I had one watched on Ebay that had the connectors as a set here is the item number 170902418018.

    Thanks! Like I said, I really just need the Ar, the water lines I'm going to plumb in, may use quick connects, may not, don't know yet.

    I DO know that a standard WP20 handle won't fit on the euro style WP20, where the lines connect inside the body, it's too wide to fit the handle over. Perhaps the other model has the fittings staggered more?

    I did a video review on the torch for the contest and because there were some things I couldn't find when I was looking that I wanted to reference. Not sure if it'd count for the contest or if I should even post it since I took the torch handle apart.

    A bit disappointed all around, torch came in AFTER the 4 day weekend (UPS's fault, not Everlast, it sat at the damn depot Wednesday instead of loading on a truck to my house. The stock euro handle is just as big as the WP26 I was replacing, and the new one doesn't fit it.

    I had hoped to have it for this past weekend, else I'd have waited till the other style handle was in stock.
