Hi Everyone,
I been lurking around here for a while, very informative forum. I have had a Syncrowave 250 for about 12 years, and it's been pretty much bullet proof since new. We have a cabin in northern Michigan that I try to get away too as much as possible. The Syncrowave as I'm sure most of you are aware of is not most portable welder. So I called my local welding supply co. and told my salemen that I wanted something I could lift
So I brought home a Dynasty 200DX, DC current seems pretty close in performance, next I tried it on AC 
Man! Was I impressed.. I usually tig aluminum to 3/16 or less which this machine did a fantastic job on. I did try it on a couple of small 1/4 angle
about 12" long, didn't bevel or preheat and I think found its limits. Called Dave Fisher at miller "nice guy by the way" he gave some pointers on the 200 when welding 1/4" which it will do by the way. It boiled down to duty cycle for me so trade up to the Dynasty 300DX. Got a chance last night to play around a little bit, what a sweet machine.. The only thing I miss is the portabilty of the Dynasty 200, if a person was not going to do a lot on 1/4 I think the Dynasty 200 is the machine.. Now if the 300 is as reliable as my Syncrowave 250 "it's for sale by the way" has been I'll be a happy camper.
