    Default Comparison Chart?

    When I started shopping I was looking for the most features for my money, and in all honesty, if I could have got all the features the 256 has in a 200 amp machine I would have bought it.

    Enough rambling. A old employer is looking for a tig machine to weld aluminum for his kit plane project. He is dead set on a diversion 165. He is a lil upset that he has to pay extra for a pedal. So I invited him over to try my 256 out, and I'm thinking the PT200 is what he should look at? or the PT225?

    So maybe a comparison chart would be in order?

    Thank you, but I was actually looking for something comparing it to the other makes.

    He still has a problem with Chinese built stuff, even though many things in his garage are from Harbor Freight.

    I was thinking the pt200 as it seemed to be in the same range as the 165, and comes with a pedal.

    Even on the best day, the Diversion is 1200.00 or thereabouts. PT 200 is still cheaper and tax is not charged unless it is in CA.

    If we created a comparison chart, it would be against the Dynasty or the Invertec, or TA products, and even the ESAB caddy tigs.

    Even though the 200 is lower in specs, many of them do compete favorably, when compared to the equivalent Dynasty, including duty cycle, Max, Min, Amps and features like AC frequency.
