It is certainly not a Syncrowave but it cost under $200 and is very portable. I do miss the foot pedal and lack of high frequency start but I still think it's a great deal for the price.

I have 4 of them and use them both in the shop and in the field. They are dual voltage and should be considered by any who do s/s in areas where only household current is available. However inverter technology still doesn't come cheap. ShadowMac 01-19-2009, 05:15 PM The little Miller I bought over Christmas is a Millermatic 140 with auto-adjust. Haven't used the auto-adjust feature, I like being able to control the flow. So far, really like it. Never used wire weld before, but for the small size metal I'm playing with, it screams. jptech 05-25-2009, 06:24 PM Miller 320 A/BP Miller Auto Arc 50A Miller Maxstar 150 STH Lincoln SP-200 Hobart 250 Amp "Mainliner" Portable Thermal Dynamics PAK 3XR Plasma Cutter Secheron Plasmafix 50S Plasma Welder ligito 05-28-2009, 12:56 AM Millermatic 211 AS MVP FIREWELD JAKE 06-29-2009, 04:51 PM Trailblazer 302 dc 09 series with option subaru motor installed with 23hp. wish i could afford the 302 with air compressor but didnt have the extra 10grand, i use also maxstar 150 work wonders in house hold and hospitals. and old lincoln redcat 2 16hp onam motor Macona 07-15-2009, 06:31 AM The only miller I have now is my XMT-304.

Rod1945 08-11-2009, 01:32 AM Anyone had an experience with a Hobart Plasma Cutter the 110 volt type...I am building pipe corrals and fences...any suggestions before I purchase... I would like the air compressor built in... pros and cons... Thanks, Rod1945 eschultz55795 10-19-2009, 03:14 PM It seems almost all the 110 unit,mig,cutter ect. draw lots of current so you will need a good power supply,I did wel 1/2" aluminum double beveled with one in ac output mode but it needed a 30 amp 120 Vac supply. eschultz55795 10-19-2009, 03:15 PM It seems almost all the 110 unit,mig,cutter ect. draw lots of current so you will need a good power supply,I did weld 1/2" aluminum double beveled with one in ac output mode but it needed a 30 amp 120 Vac supply. azmac54 10-20-2009, 09:02 PM synchrowave 250 autoset 140 300 synchrowave(actually is Airco 300 heliwelder w/pulse) I prefer the older Airco machine over the modern Synchrowave 250 -- it welds better all around-has pulse- and it doesn't draw as much electricity. It's only drawback is that it is heavier than a dead minister- but its on wheels now. It's sweet on aluminum too! Jim OS2Pilot 11-04-2009, 08:42 PM Hey guys, I guess I can be classified as a Miller man & own a Miller Sidekick, Miller Challenger 172, & a Millermatic 130. Denny elecmec 01-08-2010, 03:45 AM I just got a Miller Diversion 165 TIG penatrater 05-08-2010, 11:17 AM Deltaweld 500 bolingerbe 06-21-2010, 01:36 AM I have a Syncrowave 250 DX Millermatic 252, and Spectrum 375. I will be building a CNC Plasma during the fall. I will post pictures of this project. 125 I am only been wilding for a couple of years but have been bitten by the welding bug. Looking foward to reading and learning. dream2000 09-18-2010, 12:14 PM Newly signed-on here, but been at it for a long time. Past Steel-mill maintenance welder for 30+ years, retired tinkerer now. I bought my first Miller new around 1976?, I still have it. It is a 250 Dialarc HF with optional power-factor correction caps and foot-pedal. After that, I bought an Airco Dip/stick 160 (simimal to or made by Miller?). Still use it also. Recently, I needed (always wanted one) a portable gas-drive. So I found a Miller Legend KCxxxxxx (1992?). I also have had several Craftsman buzz-boxes of which I sold the 225a, and kept a little 120v 90-100a unit ( hate AC machines for stick ). It needs put on Craigslist !! I hauled it around in my bucket-truck for emergency things, but will probably have the Legend with me nowadays? ecenur 10-20-2010, 03:05 AM I have a Millermatic 252 mig welder, I like the way it runs, its easy to handle. Thinking about getting another machine and giving this one to my son, anyone have any ideas on which mig welders are good? fillister 02-28-2012, 12:31 PM New member here, I had a Miller Dialarc 25HF since 1984, bought it new from a local welding supply house. It's been very reliable machine over the many years but not in a production enviorment. Recently purchased a Dynasty 350 and am learning about all of the settings.
