My Mosfet-based Everlast Super200P seems to "do it all" in stick mode... AC, AC Balance, pulsing, even the footpedal (for current control.) Whether any of that is useful or not is a separate question. I will say that my learning curve on stick probably would have been a little easier if the machine didn't allow all those different ways of changing the stick mode arc and only allowed DC.

The main thing that putting my Super200P into stick mode seems to do is turn off the gas solenoid (and related functions like pre- and post-flow), turn off the high frequency starting (and also up/downslope), and it also turns on the "arc force" also. (Which doesn't seem to make any difference in TIG mode.)

Since the Super200P's current display always displays what the machine is "trying" to put out for arc current, it reads 0 in TIG mode when at idle, but in stick mode it will read whatever the machine would try to run at if you struck an arc. It's handy for checking current settings, footpedal ranges, pulsing current settings (with the pulsing frequency turned down low enough to see the separate peak and background current settings), etc.

It uses the same current output range (0-200amps) for both stick and TIG. But since stick arc is higher voltage, I know it draws more power out of the wall (and is possibly harder on some of the machine's components and) when in stick mode than in TIG. Plasma mode is also a pretty high voltage mode. The only time I've ever tripped a breaker (30amps) with it was when it was in plasma mode (which I think is limited to 40-50 amps max, or something like that.)
