Anyone receive a W300 cooler yet? If so, post a review and pics! Can't wait to get mine up and running. Looks like it 'll be the 25th or so before UPS drops by, dang it!:mad:

Mine is supposed to arrive tomorrow 4/25. I already have my 2 Gals of distiled water but I probably won't get to hook it up until Tuesday or Wednesday. It may be next weekend before I realy have a chance to put it to the test.Quote:

I remember those stories from my sunday school days , changed water to wine, healed the lepers and delivered a water cooler without any dents or dings.Quote:

I fixed the leak in the hose, but not at the quick connect yet.
Would one of you guys with the W300 do me a huge favor and take a quick measurement of the size of the cooler (Height, Width, Length)? I would greatly appreciate it. I'm getting ready to build a welding cart but the coolers are out of stock at the moment and I want to go ahead and get started.
Thanks a ton,

How much coolant does the W300 hold? Would one gallon do it or do I need two just to be sure? Plan on using the Miller coolant since it does freeze here.
According to the info it is 2 gallons, but it doesn't say what kind of gallons the big ones from Canada or the small ones from the USAQuote:

Also,
1 Imp gal = 160 oz
1 US gal = 128 oz

Tooo confusing for the youngsters out there, much easier to say the US gallon is 4/5th of the Imp gallon.Quote:

There are pictures of mine with a 250 ex on the everlast cart, in my gallery.
