Had one for 4 years and it is a beast. I own several welders including a 500 amp mobile, a lincoln suitcase mig for mobile work and this little machine preforms in the shop great.

I just started using mine about 3 weeks ago. Literally failed at every aluminum project I tried in the past. Still trying to make my beads more uniform and pretty with the omnipro, but first project, a light gauge angle aluminum frame to cover the base of a mobile parts bin, literally couldn’t be more pleased with the result. Used the spool gun I bought with it a .30 wire and a “last kid in the class” slow wire feed and pure Argon of course. Very rewarding to have awesome results at something I literally sucked at last time I tried.

I can tell you I have used this machine for 2 years and it was in a factory. Duty cycle is fine, and the tig, you will need a foot pedal, but the performance is right there with Miller. You can buy a separate mig welder for heavy welding, or stick, but I have mig welded up to 1/2 thick prepared correctly but can be done easily. This is truly a game changer let’s hope they keep the price down

No you don't need a pedal for this one on tig... you do need it for the tigpro but the omnipro 220 will scratch start

The phase "I haven't used it for more than 4 or 5 minutes at a time." Is huge red flag for me. I've used Miller and Lincoln welding machines for 3 hours straight no problem. 4 or 5 minutes doesn't give enough operation time for a valid honest review in my opinion as a welding instructor in training

bought mine 4 months ago, still going strong and I like the machine BUT.... If I had found primeweld before I bought it I would have got the primeweld 200, it comes with a FULL 3 year warranty and costs less i'm keeping the vulcan because I do like it and i'm past the return point. I will exchange it at least once before my extended warranty is up

I put my hands on it in the store. Felt cheap. Not super cheap, but cheap. High quality cheap lol. Im probably going to get one for the garage at home and small home projects. Should be perfect for that and last awhile bc it might get used a few times a year. Thanks for the review man. I do have plans on building my own utility trailer. Think this can handle that?

Here is my Honest review over priced!!!! plus you only get a 90 day warrant if you want 3 to 4 years thats an extra 60 to 100$........./ Want a welder thats better than the OMNIPRO 220 check out ARC Captain they sell the best welders for a very nice price OMNIPRO over prices their stuff same for Titanium You can get a 50 amp plasma cutter for 250$ does the same as titanium but its cheaper but has better quality better duty cycle I been using it for 8 months almost constantly I haven't had a issue Also about issues you get a 2 year warranty with them Harbor freight gives you a 90 day warranty unless you pay more money to extend that for a year to 3 years which cost a lot more money This is what I recommend if your just starting out and some of these machines pair it with generator and you can do mobile welding for light work for steel 1/2 inch for 6mins at 130 amps :) have good day yall Save the money

So, can the mig gun be replaced with a nicer one from Miller or another brand?
@allamericanweldingandfabri72332 жыл бұрын
Good question, I do not have a good answer for your question at this time Jason however I will say the hardware between the Vulcans mig gun and other brands appears very similar.
