Cigweld W1002901 170 AMP Inverter Welder
Machine not working? This unit is a great unit it just has a few quirks with dust..
Unit would startup and fan would blow as usual then say 10 sec in would stop and green light flash slowly ?

Cheap gas Hoses
Have owned this for 5 years and the original gas hoses leaked like a sieve from the regulator to the welder and internally. I am now finding the hoses for TIG hand piece are perished. I am a hobby user and expected with low usage that the hose will have lasted.
As a welder it works well -

Awesome Welder, fantastic purchase
I brought this welder with the hard storage case from an EBay online shop for $295 with free shipping ($150 cheaper than any retail shop here in perth) and literally was dying to get it delivered ASAP.
I set it up straight away and first thing that i was impressed with was the small size and very light weight of the unit, due to the inverter technology. I got to work on welding up the huge workbench I was making for the shed. The rods we were using were 2.5mm @ 65amps & 3.0mm rods @ 80amps.

Hi Flips. Sorry for the delay in replying. As you may have noticed. I did die. Hence the long delay, the welder actually brought me back to life also, that is how fantastic this piece of kit is. Haha

I have a weldskill 170 that when you try to strike an arc the overheat light comes on, It has done this every now & then, requires switching of & back on & is generally ok for awhile, however now it just keeps putting o/heat light on & is unusable. Anyone know how or where to fix this problem,as I would like to keep it going as it is an excellent welder when working, It has done very little work.

When you say you were literally dying to get it delivered, what do you mean? Did you die, in the end, or was it delivered in time?
