Hi folks
I've seen a few pro shops which still have one of these, and brand new even. After reading the horror stories in Usenet posts, I wonder if these devices have safety plugs the way acetylene tanks do, so that overpressures can be vented? What is the bottom line here? I would be using one for my home shop, since I'm finding the cost of the monthly acetylene refill quite high. I do both brazing and welding. I'm not sure about an arc welder since it causes noticeable rippling in the house lighting and the appliances, and PCs are a concern (all them are hooked to line regulators)
Any advice thanked in advance
regards,
Mongke
