Tips to anyone out there practicing with these. Tips for your safety, don’t hold that rod with your hand. Practice without using your hand. Remember that’s live currents in your hand, don’t get in the habit because the day those gloves get wet, or the day you feel daring to hold it bare handed for a quick spot. You will die. Other tip preheat metal before the weld. Be creative since you’re new I’d recommend a small butane torch. Torch the spots you want to weld and hit it. That’s how you can arc easier without getting stuck for smoother welds my friend. Good luck

[@jiwbink]

PMG, INDEED THAT IS EXCELLENT ADVICE,AND THERE IS CURRENT FLOWING THERE.,MOST PPL DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT THE ENTIRE ABILITY TO ESTABLISH AN ACR AND LAY SOUND WELD DEPOSIT IS COMPLETLY DEPENDANT UPON ARC RESISTANCE-THE DIDTANCE THE ELECTRODE(ROD OR WIRE) IS FROM THE BASE OR PARENT MATERIAL. THERE IS,IN EVEY APPLICATION A SWEET SPOT,THE ARC LENGTH IF TOO SHORT CAN RESULT IN ARC FREEZE(MORE COMMON IN "STICK", OR "BIRD NESTING" IN WIRE APPLICATIONS (SOLID,FLUX CORED OR DUAL SHIELD). ARC LEBGTH TOO LONG,CAN PRODUCE MOLTEN BALLS OF LIQUID FILLER METAL,THAT CAN BE NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE FROM EITHER THE WELD ZONE OR TGAT WELDMENT,WITHOUT LEAVING BEHIND EVIDENCE OF BEATING AT THESE GLOBULES OR GRINDER SCARRING. KNOWING OR HAVING A FAIR ESTIMATE OF MATERIAL TO BE WELDED,THICKNESS,COMPOSITION VOLTAGE & AMP ESTIMATION WILL AIDE IN STARTING AND MAINTAINING A WELDING APPLICATION, ONCE MASTERING PROPER ARC LENGTH IN VARIOUS POSITIONING,T G E REST IS ESSENTIALLY TRYING TO FIND WHICH ELECTTODE MANIPULATIONS YOU ARE COMFORTABLE USING,FINDING TIPS,TRICKS AND SHORT CUTS... I GOT IN DECADES AGO,ALWAYS WORKING TO LLAY THE NEXT BETTER THAN THE LAST. I MADE SURE TO BECOME PROFICIENT USING ONLY ONE HAND IN ANY POSITION,NEVER LEANING AGAINST WALLS MACHINES ETC. DOING THAT,IMPRESSED FEWER PPL THAN IT PISSED OFF!! "MAN,HOW'D YOU DO THAT,STANDING THERE,AND WELDING WITH JUST ONE HAND"!! I TOLD THAT GUY-BROTHER,ITS A GOD GIVEN TALENT!! SMOKE WAS COMIN FROM HIS EARS!! I LEARNED TO DO IT THAT WAY BECAUSE ABOUT A QUARTER OF THE WAY THROUGH WELDING SCHOOL,MY DUMB ASS GOT MY THIMB CAUGHT BETWEEN A 3/8"WELDING TEST PLATE(I WAS PREPPING FOR CERT TESTING) AND A 12" PEDISTSL GRINDING WHEEL. FOR THE NEXT TWO MONTHS I HAD ONLY ONE HAD FOR USE...

Not promoting a bubbled life.

[@JNC1973]

Do you think this handheld welder is good for first time welders to learn how to weld on and just to do small patch jobs at home or is there any particular welder that is easier to learn on? Basically I've never welded before only know how to soldier with a soldiering iron but want to be able to do a little welding on my mini bike frame and other small things like that in my garage.

[@johnsharonwhitaker9242]

thanks Dony, The variability in your welds could be due to the rods. On the farm here we have a 250 AMP AC stick welder and 6013 rods are easier to use than 7018 which I recall is low-hydrogen and works better in a DC welder. But it does give you a stronger weld once you get used to it. I think the inverter is AC. John in Manitoba

[@creativewoodworker4300]

One thing I never hear people talk about on these kinds of videos is if you don’t use good Eye protection you can really get your eyes burned from the welding glare. It is a must to have a good lens and to not have a leak in the sheilds where the lenses connect into the shield. If you ever get burned eyes you will know what I’m talking about but just imagine sand in your eyes. And it doesn’t go away for hours. I went through this years ago and trust me it does not feel good. If it ever happens to you you will never forget it.

I'm retired now and live in the city, but in my younger days I used to do quite a bit of welding. My father and I had an electric welder, spot welder, acetylene torch, etc. in our autobody shop but I would have jumped on something like this if it was available at the time. This would have been excellent for small welding jobs in confined areas. Easy to set up and use plus I really like the trigger control. BTW I am a Canadian and I live in Alberta. I really like TEMU and I buy from them on a regular basis. Anytime that I had an issue I contacted them online and it was resolved right away. Thank you for the video!

I like 6011 or 6013 By the way, those anger blades breaking loose happen so often, poor welding in the factory. i just repaired one a couple days ago, with this welder you can bring it to the blower instead of having to bring the blower to the shop.

Interesting concept for a sub $100 welder. Many possibilities, looking at alternatives.

For reference, I dont do much stick welding anymore but a 6010 rod penetrates deeper and is better for dirty metal so you can turn the power down for that thinner sheet. 7018 is much more smooth and easier to use.

i got so spoiled with MIG welding, I wouldn't have any desire for a stick welder any more...I got a relatively inexpensive ESAB welder that runs on 110 that does all I need around the house...sure a 220 would be better but that adds extra costs with outlets and accessories etc...this could be a handy little emergency tool for quick temporary repairs but everyday use would not be a good idea with this unit...thanks Don

[@jpsholland]

dont, oh, i am a pro welder. It's just a stupid idea to have the entire welding machine in your hand. The weight take away control of the rod while welding. And in hard to reach places also the sight on your weld. You can find better welders for the same price at discounters. The best thing you can do is to look a and old used pro stick welding machine for the same price or a little more. And dont mind the weight, the heavier the better. That means they have a copper coil around a cast iron core. Those are the most stable and controllable welders.

Temu is not accredited by the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and has an average rating of two-and-a-half out of five stars. Many recent complaints about Temu on the BBB website say that items never arrived or, if they did, took weeks or even months to arrive.

I personally don't trust the BBB. I had issues with a tax preparer years ago. The BBB decided that what the preparer offered me, free tax prep is good enough as a penalty instead of doing something constructive, like taking away their great rating. So, whether BBB approved or not, I wouldn't go with their opinion of anything. Just my opinion.

[@manhunter3429]

Maybe there are different branches of TEMU and some of those branches give people the run around and a bad time, but I have been buying things, all sort of things from them for about three to four years now and I have not had a major problem with them, 97% of the time the items come when they are suppose to and when they didn't I got that 5$ that was mentioned in this video. The only problem I have with TEMU is that you have to order a set amount to get free shipping and it is not the same for all people. Like my friend who lives in NC has a 20 dollar min while mine is 25 in the state I live in. When I first started using TEMU it was only 10 dollar min but now it is at 25 for me and the way it looks it will be 30 soon. So my way around that is if I need something that is higher priced I will use TEMU but if it is something that I need that cost say 10ish I will use EBAY or Walmart Plus. I do a lot of comparison shopping and if I can get it cheaper at TEMU for a higher priced item I will use them. You can get a 80 chainsaw the same chainsaw that might cause you 120 dollars on Amazon, Ebay or Walmart Plus. But I will never ever never buy another item on ALIEXPRESS.,

dNice video Don if Jake and i did not have the MIG and TIG welders in the shop at EP we would have likely ordered one.

Hi Donny If I Could Make A Comment Please When You Are Trying To Weld A Joint, It's Better Instead Of Going Along The Joint, Move Your Rod Slightly Left To Right Across The Joint. I Noticed It Was Too Hot & You Was Going A Bit Too Fast. Left To Right A Bit Slower & You Will Get A Better Weld On The Job. Where As You Was Going Along The Joint & It Was Getting Too Hot & Blowing A Hole In The Metal. Best To Keep Most Of The Heat On The Metal Itself. I'm Not A Professional By Any Means, & I Do not Claim To Be A Professional, But I Have Done More Then My Share Of Welding

[@truocleb]

Looking at the definition of inverter welder. It states that it is a DC welder. So what is the polarity. As a Welding Technologist, some rods prefer strait polarity and others reverse polarity. This may be where some welding on these videos goes not so good. For example a 6010 is a reverse only rod. Is this machine set to reverse. As for general welding the rule is strait polarity more heat on the plate, and reverse if you want more heat on the rod. I think I might have to buy one of these.

[@RayAalster]

I couldn't help but notice that the input power was 4.6 KW. My 120V output is rated for 20 Amps. I used a KW to Amps converter to find out that I would need a 38.3 amp circuit breaker to operate this tool. Is that right? I've been wrong before but??? Maybe in the country where this tool comes from the calculations are different.

[@Dutcharmytent]

I have been a welder for over 30 years and you cannot use 3.2 rods on low amps. You need to switch out to thin rods drop the amps and stitch weld.

[@johntellerman1]

Always clean the joint down to shiny bare metal before you weld. Contaminants such as dirt and oil will prevent a good welded joint.

[@philrichardson2654]

Great Review - Seems to be a good product.

[@Дмитрий-я5щ8я]

Thank you💪

[@Robthebengalguy]

When you use 1/8 rod on 1/4 in steel you have to turn the heat up remember the smaller your rod the lower the heat

[@jeepsaround]

The cleaner the surface the better the weld will always be. Plate thickness takes more power to create enough heat in that much metal. A thicker rod will take a bit more power. Smaller rod for thinner metal, less power.

I'm thinking it might be tiring with the weight of the inverter in your hands. Thanks for the video. Cheers!

no way this guy has ever passed a welding test.. every weld he made would break early in the bend....

You would think after 135 years of stick welding there is a modern improvement
