Maybe if you had a shop full of different brands it might be nice to have a standard, but really it's no big deal. The early Syncrowave had a knob that went from Max Cleaning to Max Penetration with an arbitrary 1- 10 scale and number 3 was marked Balanced.

    What you're saying is you would rather have something like this?

    Yes! That is what I would prefer if the balance control adjusts the percentage of the positive portion of the cycle.

    Or, if it is a +/- from 50%, I think something along this line would make more sense:

    I really don't care where the balance is referenced from either, as long as the picture on the front matches what the adjustment actually does.

    Got to looking at the pulse section a little closer too, am I the only one who notices something amiss here?

    The way I read it, we only have to have things arranged before the 5th, still gives us a bit of time to get them crated and shipped. I really hope I can sneak in a couple more projects before then.
    Penncrest Buzzbox - Infinite amp control! Man the 70's were good.
    Everlast Powerplasma 60 - Reliable unit, cuts well.
    Everlast i-MIG 250P w/spoolgun - Really smooth, plenty of cajones.
    Everlast 250EXT - Sometimes it just takes a kick in the balls...
    Everlast 255EXT - Just started playing

    The pulse section looks fine if it follows the 210EXT pattern. As that machine pulses low not high, so max amps is set my the main control and pulses are low. There is another brand I've seen that is just like that. It also matches the graphic nicely.
