    Thermal Arc/Firepower 160 Amp inverter deals

    Some good closeout deals on Victor/Firepower/TA 160 Amp welders at the moment.

    Victor 160 welder w/TIG kit $293. (Shipping $, ?) I think they used the ESAB pic by mistake. But it's either the ESAB or the Thermal Arc 161S. The part number listed, W1003603, should be the TA 161S TIG kit.

    Toolfetch has the Firepower branded equivalent for $350 shipped. Part# 1442-0036 (They have one listed on eBay for $375.)

    DC only. The first link must be broken because they sold out. Toolfetch had one left on their eBay site.

    ...Looks like they are gone now.

    Good deal. I ordered one of the Firepower ones before I found the Clearance Supply listing. Don't know why Clearance Supply wanted to charge VA sales tax.

    I did check the Firepower and TA manuals to see that the main boards were the same part numbers, and they are.
