My mother in-laws house has 220 in their shop.

Where live I have 220 for my dryer but I don't want to use a extension cord from my dryer.

I rotate between locations, I wanna use it at both.

Does that make sense?

Let him go on and find out things for himself (the hard way).


Argue, not hardly. Save some money Yes!

I work in a fab shop with plenty Miller's, that I can use everyday. These do me no good at home when I want to practice.

And you did sell me on the everlast 200 it has a much better duty cycle and is dual voltage.

Its just hard for me to justify 400 for just Practicing stick welding. I have 3 young daughters that I support by myself. So I cant just buy whatever I want.

So hopefully you understand why I am frugal.

I am sorry I bothered you with my questions.

Have a nice day.

Yeah that makes sense (application wise not scope wise) Good luck!
