What is it about the 205 that makes it unsuitable for aluminum TIG welding. The Everlast website info says you have to go up to the PowerMaster line for AL.

thanks

It is a pure DC only machine. Generally DC is not recommended for Aluminum. The PowerMaster is AC/DC. AC is recommended for Aluminum. DC + welding of Aluminum is possible, but not recommended, unless you are an expert and understand the process well.
