Comparison... Miller - I-Mig

[geezer]

After getting input from my local weld shop, I believe the ESAB Caddy 200i (inverter) is the top dog in portable mig welders, that full digital display is very cool. I like the setup using the thickness in thousands over Millers fractional inputs. What blew me away is it cost less than 1000.00 dollars.

It's probably a good welder but I didn't see any stick or spoolgun capability on it and I will put my Imig 205 up against it any time anywhere

That Esab is way bad to the bone and costs exactly the same as a 205. I like it alot!

I like my Imig 205, that's why I have two of them, one for the shop and one for the garage, share the spool gun between them, but not for long,,, plan on getting another spool gun. I just won't buy a welder that won't do stick (old fashioned in my ways,,,but stick is still the King of welding....so a mig that does stick is what I want)
