Re: cheaper inverter DC?

Base on your first post, the price of Php 11,500 is kinda steep for you for a 200 amp DC Inverter welder, so, what is your budget for a welder that you will be comfortable with.

Most members here started with the YAMATO 200 amp DC Inverter as an entry level welder for beginners, why this brand ? To tell you the truth, its because it was the cheapest brand in the market at Php 5,700 for a DC weld machine plus the seller gave us a very convincing and true after sales service. Now, nobody knew whether it was the best brand or not until I took the initiative, the chance and purchased a unit and made a review on the welder and was impressed with its ability and performance. Had a group buy and many were satisfied with it but a few where not of its quality.

This is a very small community of people who are into metal working/welding and buying a weld machine becomes a chance, not much reviews of DC weld machines can be found locally so we have really no basis what is the best brand. It will always be the seller who will say their product is the best in the market, LOL, "SELF SERVING" if you will put it.

Anyway, from some research before, under the 200 amp DC Inverter, there is the POWERCRAFT, purchased by another member for Php 10,000.00. There is another one available, its MITSUDEN brand being sold for Php 7,000.00. I cannot say these are the best brand or not since no extensive reviews, I mean "real extensive reviews" have ever been posted in the forum. You will still be taking a chance here and it will depend also on how you will use the machine you will buy. May I suggest you do also your own research in the net and find out what brand you will prefer and buy.

GOOD LUCK on your search for the rightful welder !!! :goodluck:

Re: cheaper inverter DC?

Oh there are perhaps plenty of heavy duty welders that can be considered but they are not really cheap, the way you wanted them to be cheap, LOL 😀 You will have to consider stretching your budget a bit more if you want a heavy duty welder that will last you long specially if you will be using it for production purposes in the future !!!

Again good luck !!! 😉

Re: cheaper inverter DC?

Re: cheaper inverter DC?

Yung Rilon 200A na 11,500.00 at yung Powercraft 200A na 10,000.00 ay di na nagkakalayo ang presyo at features. Ang tanong na lang ay alin ang mas mahusay sa dalawa kung specs at pagkakagawa ang pagbabasehan pati narin yung inaasahang warranty sa dealer. May mga miyembro tayo na bumili ng below 10k na welder pero di masabing kung pang medium to heavy duty grade kasi nga pang DIY use lang. Nasa iyo na kung may balak kang gawing pang heavy or medium use sa future yang welder na bibilhin mo pero kung magkagayon man ay ang ire-rekomenda ko sa iyo ay yung mga 10k pataas na ang kunin mo. Mapapansin mo na malaki ang pagkakaiba ng pagkaka disenyo at laman ng mga welders na nasa ganitong price bracket kasi nga naka design ito na pang malawakan at matagalang gamit. You said it yourself, sayang ang pera kung naka mura ka nga pero hindi naman worth it. Stretch mo nalang yung budget mo para masulit mo ang pagbili ng magandang welder.

Re: cheaper inverter DC?

heatsink - take's away the heat. inverter dc are notorious for heat that's why they blow up IC's easily. Good for DIY but not good for fabrication. I prefer on transformer types because they are more durable, heavy duty and less maintenance compared to an inverter, well, that's my personal opinion anyway 🙂

Re: cheaper inverter DC?

Yeah bro, I think so too, old school AC transformer type welders are more heavy duty, long lasting and almost no maintenance at all compared to DC welders but of course they have each good and bad points. Well DC welders with higher amperage, say 225 or 250 amps and above can be used for production wise compared to the lower amperage welders. Well that is what I have been reading from research.

@ Bro Onie13

Regarding the Tyler brand of welder, yes its new in our market and yes its US made and their manufacturing plant is in Texas and their welders seems also good and competitive in terms of quality and durability wise. Siguro kulang lang sa advertisement kaya hindi pa kilala. 🙁
