Currently have a Miller Dynasty 300 tig runner setup with a RFCS-14 pin foot pedal, IIRC its PN 194744 and works just fine, but lets face it the wireless foot pedals are new and shiny and look awesome to have. Thinking longer term I'd love to upgrade to a Dynasty 350 but probably won't anytime soon unless I can find a deal on one or a fixxer upper I can put some sweat equity in, right now the 300 does what I need it to but for doing aluminum some of the newer pulse and balance options afforded by the 350 would be really nice, just not yet sure if it's "can justify sinking an extra $6k into buying one" nice.
Looking at both new and used stuff on eBay, seems like the 300429 "kit" is the older model and seems like I can find them on eBay used somewhat regularly around $350-500 as a working kit with the pedal and receiver fob. New these were more like $8-900 for the whole package though there don't seem to be many NOS ones being listed lately. 300724 is the pedal-only PN and they seem to be more commonly listed under that as the pedal usually has the sticker still intact, guessing hardly anybody still has the box with the 300429 PN on it.
The 301580 "kit" seems to be the newer model, mostly listed for over a grand new on eBay and from a few other online welding suppliers, don't see nearly as many open box or used ones come across eBay but when they do looks more like $5-700 for the kit with pedal and receiver fob.
Guess I'm just trying to understand what the differences are between the two models and if the newer and more expensive one is worth the higher cost, and if anyone has done a head to head comparison or has experience with both I'd be very curious to hear your thoughts. Also curious if the newer receiver fob (301584) would pair with the older pedal or vice versa with the older fob (300722) and a newer pedal
