Miller Trailblazer 302

[GFC]

Thanks to all for your advice on the TB 275. After listening and studying carefully, I will probably purchase a TB 302 with a Kohler engine. I've checked prices locally and at various websites. BR Welding has a good website and is competitive in their prices. Any comments offered about other sources and experiences you may have had with BR Welding would be appreciated.

Any evaluation of the Miller XLiX welding helmet? All helmets seem to be made overseas, except Jackson.

B&R are good people. I used to deal with them when I was up there. They will take good care of you.:cool:

I have an XLix as well. I like it pretty much. I find myself grabbing it more than my BWE for some reason. I like it anyway.:p BUT, with only two sensors, you may get flashed in some out of position work...I know I do. The BWE solves that trouble with four sensors.:cool:

I have no special clue where you are, but Quimby is our distributor and dealer in Portland Oregon. they have been around for 50 or 75 years and are good folks as well---and sell both on ebay and out the door in Portland.

Their business seems ot be named after the street they are on. I think their official retail address a differet street, but their building has Quimby street on at least one side of it.
