That is not a bad idea. I was going to talk to Alex about a finger controlled torch next. Would be a nice feature.

You would ohm out the foot pedal pot and put on on the torch. Maybe a pot with an off position and take the foot pedal plug and make one. You would need to tie it or panduit it to the torch cable to the unit.

But an ohm meter to the foot pedal plug will get you the numbers and switch info and it could be done. Just get another foot pedal plug and that way you keep the foot pedal as well.
