CK 130 Torch W/25' Superflex Lead on my PP256

Yeah, you got the 1 hose with the adapter, the one that came with my unit has two all the way to the torch, gas and power. I would think 1 must be slightly easier to maneuver. Arc-Zone is closed for a few days anyway.

I also have a wp-9f... the difference between it and the ck superflex lead is night and day for flexibility. There's a big difference in the torches also... the wp-9f is rated at 125amp DC @60% duty cycle/80amp AC @60% duty cycle. The CK 130 is rated at 130amp AC or DC @100% duty cycle and only costs a few dollars more.

I've added a small switch and lead cover to the CK130...
The switch is 1/2" square 5mm button, tactile momentary - costs about 15 cent and has the perfect click feel for me. http://www.sourcingmap.com/5mm-push-...-p-168159.html
The wire is two conductor 22ga with round insulation, costs 25 cent per foot.... purchased locally.
The cover is very tough but soft, 1/2" high density nylon weave and cost 80 cent per foot http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...ducts_id=26738
The torch handle can rotate to clock the switch to any position. Flexability was not affected, it's still as limp as cooked spaghetti.
