Continuing the discussion from [Resolved]Lincoln Squarewave 200 - no internal fan noise/no gas flow - 13 Aug 2018:
Starting a new thread, as I&R is not appropriate for discussion.
You’re right, but how many times has this unit already failed? This is not an inexpensive machine ($1700), and the quality seems to be lacking.
Let’s keep this in mind the next time we have the opportunity to add to our machines. A less expensive, not-red and not-blue, machine with the same warranty period might be a better investment.
Let’s also keep this in mind if selling the Miller 251 ever comes back up. Since we don’t move it, portability isn’t an issue.
