250 EXT Updates?

[DVA]

Why is the main 250EXT thread locked?

That is a good question.

That is a good question.

Agreed.

Even a "they're working on it but no progress since the last update" would be better than no information at all.

Is the 250EXT fix still being researched, or have they given up on it?

I gave up and just had them refund my payment.

Todd;
on a number of occasions during your experimentation it seems like you managed to get your 250EXT working well. Could you kindly tell us the state that your machine was in when it was working?

thanks,

I am not sure what you are getting at here - we had an initial design that sort-of worked, and a series of fixes which did not solve all the problems, and each problem solved seems to unveil a new one. That went on for months, and then Oleg had to make the call to pull it out of circulation, and I am sure its going to be tested to death before it comes available again.

I had an opportunity to get another welder that was a deal I could not resist, so I have also given up on this particular welder (for now) and did the refund route. It will be interesting to see how this all works out in the end though

Cheers,

Mike
