A partial review of my new Everlast 250P welder.

Hey Mark what brand of lead is on your machine. Looks to be a little heavier made than my new Miller. That's the only complaint I have about the Miller. The Bernard lead feels a little cheap, but not familiar with this brand either, it may be great! Pretty cool, you can stick weld from that unit too? Once the Chinese guys get all the kinks worked out, they will be some stiff competition!!

Hey Mark what brand of lead is on your machine.

It is a Ergoplus 24, made by Trafimet/Binzel.

you can stick weld from that unit too?

Yes, I will try it for the first time tomorrow.

I stick welded with the 250P today for the first time, used a 1/8-6013 rod.
Did great

It would interesting to see how it does with 6010, and 7018. :licking:

 

[Mark @ Everlast]

You can use the arc force control to dial it in. The unit isn't designed for 6010, but it does better than some other welders do when you try it. Works well with 6011.

 

[Markcuda]

I don't think I ever welded with a 7018 rod yet.
I am starting to not like the 6011 rods

If you can get a hold of some Hobart 335A 6011, they're childs play to run.

The cart is done and painted silver hammered finish.
When ever I get the plasma cuter, it will sit on the top section.
