I have a Rebel 205, and absolutely love it. Granted i only use if for welding 16-22 gauge in automotive rust repair. But it has never let me down.

I’ve had the 205 for almost five years now and no problems. I actually like the 180 gun. It’s reliable and light. It welds really nicely. The only thing I would wish for is a 235 version of this. There are times when I’d like a bit more power. But I don’t want two welders.

I bought an Esab 205 off of Bakers gas and the only thing I've done so far is Mig but I absolutely love it. I welded for years on a Lincoln 255 and while I really liked that welder I can tell you this, while lighter duty, welds every bit as nice if not nicer. I have not noticed anything bad about the Tweco gun so I'm not sure what Andrew we referring to there. Luckily when I purchased there was a $300 rebate and a nice sentinel helmet included (towards the end of the year).

i think he is talking about the mig gun 250 instead of the 180, because the 250 can do a better job than the mig gun 180.but you have to buy it separeate. i own a 205 for almost an year, trying to learn ac tig aluminum...

What other mig guns can you run on the esab that can compare to the miller?
@JeffinTD
@JeffinTD 6 ай бұрын
For me I went Miller. The menus just seemed more intuitive (personal preference) and the ability to switch between mig and tig by just tapping the pedal or trigger is a huge plus for how I use it. Tig wise, I do wish you could set more pulse parameters. If somehow the next generation could do 6010 that would also be a nice plus (though for the things I do 6011 is suitable and it runs it well).

When a welding supply says the esab 205 comes back with issues more, that’s pretty bad because I’d say realistically the miller 220 out sales the 205 by more than double. And that’s because they’re less know and don’t have the long reputation that miller has. Not to say they can’t make a better machine than a miller, but that’s up for debate. But a big factor for me is, they all run out of warranty at some point so which one do I wanna be stuck with is the big question

9:35" I've got nothing good to say about both" hmmm... that about sums it up. lol. On a serious note, I'm really leaning towards Red and Blue only because there's not a ton of information on ESAB, reviews, personal experiences and longevity.

You can add a different TIG torch like a CK Worldwide or something you may need an adapter

at 5:11 you state you can't adjust the ac balance on the miller this is false it can be adjusted 60 to 80%
@mbrick
@mbrick Жыл бұрын
Yes, they both have a fairly limited range of balance adjustment. ESAB 60-90%, Miller 60-80%. For frequency ESAB 25-400Hz, Miller 60-150Hz. Take it for what its worth whether the extremes on those ranges are required.

In my amateur opinion, pretty good. I’ve mainly run 6011 and 7018 with some 6013. 6010 isn’t recommended.

@@ELECTRICEYE1776 I think somewhere in the literature it said 6010 was not recommended. Apparently most multi process inverters don’t run high enough voltage. The good news is Baker’s Gas did a video and apparently 2024 version will now run 6010. Bad news is it’s a change in hardware, so owners of the previous version can’t upgrade. If you buy one I’d make sure you are getting the new one (apparently has a QR code on the home screen, and apparently on the label inside the door for the mig wire.

@@ELECTRICEYE1776 Yeah. I sure hope Miller offers an upgrade kit. Realistically 6010 will work for whatever I might do, but I suspect a lot of schools buy these, as do people who want to be professional welders and want to practice at home- and 6010 is of course widely used in industry.
