    Which Everlast welder should I buy?

    I currently have an AHP AlphaTig 200x TIG welder that has served me well for 5 years, but it's been having issues

    I figure I'd get a new Everlast welder. I have 220v access and I mainly TIG weld steel, but sometimes do stick 6011 or 7018. I'd like the ability to TIG aluminum and I mostly have max amps set at around 130. I'm thinking the 210 EXT?

    Do these welders come with evrything, torch, pedal, etc? Do they have the superflex cable?

    If Aluminum is in your future, I'd consider paying the difference for a 250A machine (or you're going to limit yourself to 1/8 or maybe 3/16). Alum just sucks-up those Amps

    As far as I know, their machines come with those accessories but they have their own line of "SuperFlex" like torches and that's probably not going to be what's in the box...

    Yes, if you buy direct from us, you get two torches, a pedal, regulator, work clamp, stick torch and small consumable starter kit. As well as a 240 to 120V adapter.
    You can upgrade to a better package, and we can custom assemble you a package if you call in direct. If you'd like to get one, let me know. 877 755 9353 ext 204.

    I'd look at either the 210EXT or the 255EXT (for more power, additional wave form, spot timer function, better stick welding capability).

    Pcmaker - any updates on which way you are leaning or which unit you bought?

    I bought a new mill so the welder has to wait awhile

    Just an FYI, but Everlast and AHP are located in the same building...pretty much dealing with the same company. I own a 210EXT and it's a nice machine, but it's not really meant for thick aluminum. You'd be happier with a 250A machine if you plan on doing anything 1/4" thick on a regular basis.

    I have to say,,, when my old PP256 crapped-out and was replaced by a 255EXT, that Advanced Square Wave really did make a noticeable difference in thicker aluminum.
