Watch before buying Yes Welder Flux135 Pro

Yeswelder is known for their affordability when it comes to Welding equipment and consumables. Many people bash brands if their not the top 3 Giants, but let’s be real; in this economy not everyone has the leisure of spending thousands of dollars for a welding machine. In this Flux135Pro review video, we pin point the upsides and downsides of this unit. For under 200 dollars, you can buy this unit in the following link:

For just $200 it is hard to go wrong. You weld two things and you're ahead of the game.

[@VantageWelding]

Very true.

[@DennisPrescott-xp4dk]

I’ve used these type of machines for sheet metal and exhaust pipe and it’s great for that hobby stuff. I even stick welded a work bench with 6013 3/32 and it ran those great

[@VantageWelding]

@@DennisPrescott-xp4dk thanks for the comment. It will help people

[@Android_Warrior]

I don't know nothing about welding, just got this machine today and will be practicing soon. Good honest review.

[@VantageWelding]

Let me know how it goes brother. Are you you doing it as a hobby?

[@Android_Warrior]

@@VantageWelding : just to fix small stuff around the house and my trailer.

[@VantageWelding]

@Android_Warrior good stuff. 🫡

[@scottoquinn4683]

Cool video man. Was wondering about the flux core wire vs gas. Nice on a home set up to not have to deal with a big bulky bottle. Just a bit more cleanup than the gas i guess. That yesweld stick 205 you recomended me still laying it down. It doesnt seem to strugle with the 7018 like this one did.

[@VantageWelding]

Yeah brother. This small unit is perfect for gas less flux. Once cleaned, it’s just like any other weld. Being able to Tig with it is a bonus in case you got super thing stuff like what I welded for Thomas. Definitely worth the 160 bucks. That 205 is perfect for your’s and your son’s needs brother without having to break the bank

[@MisterE103]

For one thing using gas will greatly reduce your exposure to the toxic heavy metal fumes produced by flux core wire, this is especially important if you'll be welding indoors where the fumes will hang around in the air

[@1pcfred]

Gas is a pain. You have to have the gas.

[@deankay4434]

I think it says the TIG torch and cord are extra. Thanks very much for this informational video!

[@VantageWelding]

@@deankay4434 thank you guys for watching.

[@jondrew55]

Exactly what I wanted to know. Of course, never having welded before I doubt I'll get the results you got, but at least I know it's in the realm of the possible.

[@VantageWelding]

If I can do it, so can you!

[@jondrew55]

@@VantageWelding We'll find out. I just ordered one. Think I'll hold off on building roll cages for a while though.

[@bjen2005]

I had a similar issue with an Everlast 210 EXT and 3/32 -7018. The only rod it would run was the 3/32 Fleetweld by Lincoln. The Hobart 7018 I could not keep the arc going.

[@VantageWelding]

I think this was just the machine brother. It sputtered around with the Yeswelder brand 6011. But you might be right. I gave the machine away already so I can’t even test it out anymore. 😅

[@randomrob5688]

Should take note you used mild steel wire on stainless so it's going to be weak and incredibly brittle. So I would ignore that hammer test.

[@VantageWelding]

I’ll keep this in mind.

[@videorecordingman]

I have the same welder and it lays 7018 just fine!

[@VantageWelding]

Nice.

[@marvinspeedperformance4316]

hey man just a question i have the same yes welder is it normal that the fan stays on as soon as turn the power on?

[@VantageWelding]

Probably. I’m not the manufacturer so can’t answer that question.

[@mjpena53]

Love your technique on tig, please do a tutorial on that.

[@VantageWelding]

I got plenty of videos homie. Check them out

[@Dmachine16]

Great video

[@VantageWelding]

Thanks brother.

[@meca13b]

Nice review, to be fair use mild steel with correct wire 0.30 more heat then get the hammer bet it wont break ! Keep the content coming 😎

[@VantageWelding]

It will brother. The size of the wire doesn’t matter. It should still penetrate. Thanks for watching.

[@meca13b]

@@VantageWelding Meat mild steel Wire .30 less than 1/4 inch . More heat . I weld alot with Flux and never break on bench test . Stainless steel flux is available im Sure you know this 😎

[@VantageWelding]

Yes sir. There’s a reason why they created shielded gas for such applications. It works. Just not sturdy for legit applications. It’s still a good process. I can buy the right filler and I promise you it will be similar returns. Wasn’t talking down on your process. It’s just not the best for certain applications.

[@drlangattx3dotnet]

Thanks for the video. I am thinking of getting a welder. I have only a very small shop which is mainly a wood shop. I suppose I am asking for a fire by taking up welding in it? Can you comment? I do not even have a metal table.

[@VantageWelding]

It’s definitely going to burn up. Probably won’t catch on fire, go buy a cheap fab table from harbor fright. They are pretty cool imo

[@drlangattx3dotnet]

@@VantageWelding thanks, man.

[@lamerariataaaaa]

Is that one of the two machines that you’ll be reviewing?

[@VantageWelding]

Yes brother. The other one was a best arc from the previous video. Was a bit more well equipped. They are sending me a plasma cutter now to review.

[@lamerariataaaaa]

@@VantageWelding nice work!

[@VantageWelding]

@lamerariataaaaa thank you brother.

[@PhuzzieNutts]

What happened to my yes welder it's new and stopped working on mat 22 in the middle of a weld

[@VantageWelding]

Contact them bro. I’m not a sell rep for them boys. 🤣🤣

[@erikslagter3231]

weird it can do stick! And with good flux core wire, you will not have the problem it's so dirty. The wire makes the difference!

[@VantageWelding]

I think the weld it self was clean once removed the slag off. Came off easy too.

[@user-ri5qi5rs2f]

Were you setup on a 110 outlet?

[@VantageWelding]

Yeah.

[@father6371]

What would you recommend for a budget/starter stick/multiprocess welder?

[@VantageWelding]

Anything you can afford would be a good set up brother. Depends on what it is that you are trying to accomplish. Get a cheap machine to learn on and build from there. No need to spend a lot of all you are trying to do is stick metal together brother. 🫡

[@Pohonesty]

Would the welds have been stronger with more penetration with a steeper rod angle?

[@VantageWelding]

Probably. It’s good enough for the type of work a 145 dollar machine would probably be used for.

[@emilio4677]

My wire untangles as it’s being fed what could it be

[@VantageWelding]

It’s not snug on the roller it self. If it’s loose it can cause that.

[@MisterE103]

Q: is that pipe you welded aluminum, it sure look like it?

[@VantageWelding]

😢😭

[@MisterE103]

If you sprayed the steel before you MIG welded it with anti-spatter it would have prevented most of that ugly flux core spatter

[@VantageWelding]

Anti-spatter 🤮 people still use that?

[@rustyshackleford2115]

What rig torch are you using?

[@VantageWelding]

It’s actually one of theirs. A @yeswelder Tig rig

[@mehmetaliaydin7463]

Does it work with 220v?

[@VantageWelding]

Probably not

[@VantageWelding]

You can look up all the details on their website.

[@R8erfan85]

Could i get this to run on 110v 15a outlet?

[@VantageWelding]

Yes, but it’ll have its limits. Eventually it’ll trip the breaker.

[@rtweath1]

@@VantageWelding What about 20 amp circuit?

[@VantageWelding]

@rtweath1 I believe I tested this on a 30 amp (not the safest) but need it for my chop saw. It worked beautifully there. As far as 20 amps you should be fine depending on the load. How much welding. It should be plentiful for a hobbyist.
