Bro, try to acquire the Cigweld 150 amps or higher, I do believe its a much better machine than the 135's amperage. If it will just be for DIY use and not necessarily for production use, then I suppose it will hold. There is a member here using the Cigweld 150 amp for his personal projects and its just doing fine.

But I sort of read an article in the past that this low amperage Mig welders where manufactured for FCAW use, meaning no shielding gas but if you want to use gas say arcoweld, then you may need to have it upgraded

Google mo na lang ang CIGWELD 150A Mig welder, you might get some results you are looking for.

Good Luck and cheers ! :goodluck:

This guy in the youtube link is a copy cat, took the idea from me and claimed it as his own...
thank1s Rosy, there's an ad at OLX for the Cigweld 150 less than 10K, you are right 150 is better. I also saw Crazy Cut post, I will ask him as well.
I was browsing youtube last night I saw this guy modified the 150 CIgweld https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-3_Kjh0PmA
Does someone knows a shop where I can upgrade the machine just in case? thanks again.

If you have the budget and willing to spend some more for a better machine, I think this is so much better than the 150 amp Cigweld. Its a Transmig 175i mig, Tig and stick welder, also by Cigweld.

No need for any upgrade since this is already an inverter type of machine.

Yes cigweld 150 was really good you can weld up to 5mm mild steel for conteneous weld up to 15 inch without hitting the duty cycle @ 0.8 mm mild steel mig wire with gas . I try the machine welding aluminium @ 0.8 alu mig wire with out using spool gun and its doing great.
You can buy it in olx at low cost while enjoying the good benefits for a diy project

May I ask bro Crazy cut, are you using straight Co2 gas or the mixed gas( arcoweld ) for your Cigweld 150 ?

Thanx in advance !! :thanks:

Here In gensan, it's very hard to acquire a mixed gas not unless i have to buy gas mixer. I have to only used pure co2 to all my mig weld except for stainless and alu.

Beetlebum sir,

Don't bothered with 50 hrz they are also rated as 50/60hz some country like UK, australia and etc. They are so specific. If you happen to buy a cigweld 150 don't convert it to dc. The machine are design to be use in welding aluminium.
If you'de really like to convert i will teach you. But it almost the same all you have to do is practice welding.

Thanks.

sir crazy cut thanks for the info. I will send you PM pag naka bili ako.

tnx guys

Cigweld 150a is already DC, transformers arent affected with 50 or 60hz...much better if they are 120hz so you can burn aluminum wire in AC
