Lincoln 185 tig

Is the Lincoln 185 tig welder much better than the 175?



The Lincoln PrecisionTIG 185 is a nice step up from the Squarewave 175 Pro. It has a larger range, variable AC wave ballance, and a built in pulser standard. Miller is going to have to upgrade the Syncrowave 180SD to beat it.

However I still feel that the Thermal Arc Prowave 185TSW inverter is a better deal for about the same money.

But Miller did start the economy-tig thing, no?

Glad to see others catching up. Always had sort of a soft spot for Lincoln, what w/ their progressive company and all. Here about NYC, on construction sites/bridges, you see *nuthin but blue*, never any red.

Wonder what the blue/red ratio is like elsewhere.
