Miller pedals are available in both 7-pin and 14-pin configurations. I won't promise you that either the seven-pin is compatible, though it likely is, or that the resistance of the potentiometer is correct for the machine. Miller uses a 1Kohm pot. Some imported machines use a 5K, 10K, or even a 23K pot.
Some research is in order.

Does anyone know what resistance pedals are typically compatible for HTP welders, I'm trying to find out what pedal would work for the HTP Inverarc 200 TLP & the HTP Pro Pulse 220 MTS.
I have the Stel versions being from Europe Ireland, the price to get one direct is just to much $485. There are a couple third party options for half that price, but I'm not sure what resistance to get.
Thanks
All my HTP welders that use a remote amperage control use a 10k for the actual potentiometer, and a 220k for the sensing pins to detect the remote amperage control, whether it be a pedal or hand operated slider control. Let me know if you need wiring help or sourcing the connectors. I've made my own hand operated slider controls from scratch (3D Printed) so I'm very familiar with the whole process.
Post up some pics of your Stel machines. Here are mine:
Thanks so much Oscar that's exactly the information I was looking for.
I'll see how I go and I might hit you up for a little assistant if I get stuck.
I've been really impressed with the Stel Machines, for any Europeans interested in the Pro pulse 220 equivalent,
One thing to be aware of if by default it doesn't come with a 14 pin connector.
But you can order the welder with it as an extra which is what I did it was a really cheap upgrade less then €20
It can also be upgraded later if you already got the machine.
I got the heads up on this from watching Peter Zila's YouTube.
Thanks for the reply cj737, they do look like nice pedals, but it doesn't often makes sense unfortunately to buy from the US, between shipping and import duty & VAT it bumps the prices up a fair bit.
Luckily there is a couple UK and EU third party options.
My Max dp 201C is a little scuffed
, it's my go to for mobile stick work and is often on site to close to the work resulting in the odd scratch here or there, I've ordered a Stel remote 600571000L(Remote Control RC1) from my Stel supplier with 20m cable to keep the welder in the van or at least away from the work. There remote was pretty reasonable €230 including VAT which is 23% in Ireland
, that's about $240 in freedom Dollars (AvE)
It's such a great little machine runs super smooth, I run it off the generator in the Van with no problems its been a mighty little workhorse.
How have you found the Stel P80 btw Oscar? it looks like a nice Plasma.
