i'm shoure you will injoy having the dynasty 200 DX, as im shoure it will handle most all automotive work a lil slower than MIG but a gret way to play

200 dx vs 180 sd.

i recently purchased a 200 dx. it is an awesome machine. however you should know that i use a 250 syncrowave at work and learned to weld with that machine. the dynasty is giving me fits be cause the inverter arc is vastly different. not to mention that welding aluminum with a focused arc is alot different than welding with a balled tung and a fat arc. this is all overcomable and the dynasty has alot of ac arc shaping adjustments. and also take into consideration that the 200 dx is an inverter and draws alot lees amperage. the 180 will draw 60 amps at the rated amperage, the 200dx will draw about 20 at the rated amperage. i love my dynasty but the 180 is a fine machine and you have to weigh if the features are worth the extra money. welding1/4 aluminum is possible although if you are going to weld 1/4 and thicker aluminum alot, maybe you should consider a syncrowave 250 tig runner with wc torch, or th dynasty 300 dx. hop this helps

Iam also trying to decide on the 200 or the 180. How generater friendly is the 200. Will it run off a 5000 watt gen?

[fun4now]

yes

and with the power controle circuit it alows for + or - 10% curent without interupting the weld performance

syn 180 or dynasty 200dx

I have a sync 180 and I weld 3/16 aluminum all the time with no problem at all. The machnine never overheats with a 20-30% duty cycle. I will be purchasing a syn 350 as I need to weld 1/2"-1.0" after the new year. I will eventually purchase a 300dx. I am going to try some 1/4" with my syn 180 tommorow and let you know how it works. I believe duty cycle is the key.

Thanks Rob
