Unique product--I may be interested. I have seen quite a few portable units but never one quite like this. Could you please tell me who makes this product and if there are any on-line sites which deal with it (testing, replacement parts, specs, weight, etc.)?

Thanks,

Michael

Hi guys.. sorry I have not answered soon, I am at my brothers for the holiday and we only got his computer working a few minutes ago.

The name I will have to get back to you on when I get home as a link to a few more details. It is a discontinued item that you could aslo get through Granger. The specs listing my post were pulled originally from the Granger listed specs. I will get you more details next week when I get back.

Chris,

If you do not mind could you send me an e-mail at MBEELLIOTT@AOL.COM when you get the information? Sometimes I get busy and do not always have time to check the board. I am very interested in the Welder.

No problem Michael, I will shoot you the email.
For anyone else, the welder is a Solar 2135B. I am still looking for the old page that has the other info and I will update the first post as well.

Chris,

Hey, I can post again!!! Thanks, whatever you did....

In any event, one of these units sold on e-bay today for $182.50. Granted, it was used, but they do not make this thing anymore so it is a bit of a risk to buy in terms of parts, etc. I am still interested though, so shoot me an e-mail regarding what type of price you would consider acceptable and we can work from there. Also, do you know how much this thing weighs?

Thanks,

Michael (MBEELLIOTT@AOL.COM)
