Miller apps for Ipad and Android

I just love the sarcasm here. I'm sitting in my chair and laughing. That being said I also appreciate the fact that J_J let me know about this. I might not ever need it as I have just one welder and my favourite rods. Who knows I might just buy a 120 volt mig someday.

Having fun with mine! But I'm lucky I have 220v option once I wire my shop properly.

Cool, will be handy. Thanks for the link.

Give Miller credit for trying, even if some of those values look odd. They'll get better in time.

I have their Multimatic 200 (multiprocess) and the on-board software is pretty good. Set your process, your material, thickness and your filler and away you go. You can adjust up/down all you want, but frankly the default settings are almost always solid out of the box. They sent me a software update via chip that I have not swapped yet - but supposedly it gives better stick performance. I just ain't used to updating power tools with software and the stick settings seem OK to me as-is. We'll see. But that's the future: customization for every process and every welder.

Also, a lot of new folks are getting into using welders. No reason an app won't help them figure it all out.

The app is handy to have in your pocket instead of running upstairs to a PC. I know most of the settings I want anyway, without it, but still doesn't hurt to look at to confirm.. I ain't getting any younger.

There's a generation, it seems, that it if isn't on an app, it doesn't exist in their reality. Give Miller credit for understanding that's a segment of the market they are selling to.

I pre-date the internet and had a B/W TV as a kid. Cable was 10 channels and came later with a funny box tethered to the TV via a thick wire. I changed volume by getting off the couch and turning a knob, and to this day remember how to move the rabbit ears depending on the weather that day. The VCR was a new invention that didn't enter my life until High School.

I appreciate the attempts Miller is making.
