I have been looking for an inexpensive spoolgun for a few small projects. When I asked my friend at Airgas today about spoolguns, he showed/sold me the Spoolmate 100. He said that even though it isn't listed as working on the 250x he was 99% sure that it would direct connect and work.
My 250x is an older unit that has a 4pin connector for the gun and the extra 10pin connector that is currently not in use. Everything that I have read shows that I am supposed to use the 15A or 30A spoolgun directly through the 10pin connector.
After opening the box to the Spoolmate 100, I find that it only has a 4pin connector (and not a 10pin) and that does fit my 4pin connector.
So... my question is this, the Spoolmate 100 mounts up and fits my 250x, but before I pull the trigger, do you know if it will work? Or am I going to burn something out or ruin something? I would rather be able to take the Spoolmate 100 back for a refund than damage it testing it out.
Anybody know?
Thanks in advance.
