Gee,

Please, post a pic of the unit and cooler mated up together when you get it set up.

I think that 315LX has more TIG duty-cycle per amp, and at the best price per duty-cycle amp, even beyond the Everlast EXT line, and certainly beyond most any other inverter welder manufactured on any continent by any producer.

I mean, 60% duty-cycle at 315 amps, sale priced at $1899.

Or, put another way, 250 TIG amps at 100% duty-cycle, all for under 2K.

I don't think a Dynasty 400/700 can touch that, even at four or five times the price.

Who else comes close to those specs? Nobody that I can see!

And, some years back, Mr. TIG, on that Duty-Cycle Shootout video (which included a 210EXT, like mine) proved it once-and-and-for-all, to me, that Everlast duty-cycle ratings are quite conservative.
