dude you're the only one making these claims about "potentially brilliant" and "emerging", lol. Practically No one wants that thing but you. You just want to make it sound sooooo good that someone other than you buys it and miraculously vindicates your awesome premonition so you can put it on your backburner list for who knows how long, if ever at all. If it really was THAT awesome, you'd have one by now, plain and simple. You seem to be the one crying that there's something out there that you want but for some reason just can't have. That's the vibe I get. Hardly anyone wants to RISK spending $900+ dollars just to say, "that guy was right!!!". Even if it did everything my HTP Invertig221 does or what a Dynasty 200 does at 1/4 the price, no one in their right mind would ditch either of those machines for the Topwell piece. I'd be very surprised if someone did.

And for your viewing pleasure
If this doesn't work I'll try another way
I like how you need a positive AC Balance to maintain a pointed tungsten, but the recommended setting is -15%, which sounds like the 0% baseline is equal to a 50-50 time split. So the recommended setting puts you at 65%EP/35%EN split. Wowzers.

Junk...oh, I gotta use at least 5 letters?

It's junk.
lol. I've used junk before, admittedly. But that was before I knew better. Before weldingweb, I was using chinese tigs. Then I came here and really learned what's out there in terms of quality. No going back.

Armchair Expert. Everlast does not buy prepackaged designs as far as 99% of our product line goes. You have no idea about what you are talking about here. Hey, but this is the internet, anything anyone says makes them an automatic authority...right? And what once was true will always be true so no need to know more than you once knew too right?
Oooohhhh!!!!, and njs552 goes down on a precision counter-left-hook by lugweld!!!

what they don't and can't show in that Duty Cycle test video, is that repeatedly taking a machine with an air-cooled torch up to a 60% D.C. or higher, will smoke the cable at the torch end. The copper/brass the tig torch is made out of conducts heat right out of the torch head, down the body, and right into the brass connector that threads into the torch. And what is connected to that brass connector? The rubber torch cable that will eventually dry-rot/crack/disintegrate. Do that on AC welding a few times a week, and you'll be buying a new air-cooled power cable weekly.
