Yes they are great and you can save on electrons too with an inverter, but they cost more.

One day I'll post a picture expo of my dream shop inventory, and It will be one of them.

But since there is a miller tig dream machine that I want, that will be hard to afford, I'll have to stick with my esab MIG choice, as bang for $.
This looks good to me: 260 amps at 50% duty cycle.



Why did I say all that, I don't know.
That one is surly the best for your situation, and maybe my ideas are probably best for me. Maybe not!
But I think thats what the guy wants, our ideas....

I was thinking of an xmt, but am so afraid of having 1 power souce go out, then all your welding machines are down. That's why I bought all seperate units...
