FS Coolmate 4

That's a very nice price.

I thought it's fair. I'm losing a little but I used it with good results and given that the block needs to be built or the hose-ends modified I figured it was fair as it is a bit well, not beat up but just used a lot but still very reliable and rebuilt.

Rob, the Diamondbacks..air or water cooled? And do they use standard WP type consumables?

Gunner

Gunner, I have both. I prefer the DB torches I usually snag them up on EBay if I see one new in box and reasonable. WP stuff works. The only problem I have had is with a Pyrex cup. Still don't have one as it's not easy to find. because of the Teflon ring outside the torch face where the cup spins up to. Other than that problem #17's have been no issue. Two of the water cooled ones have really nice handles and are very easy to manipulate even with the cable saver on. I got a smaller water cooled one too that is NIB I am just looking for a reason to use. I just need to snatch up some spare parts for it. I think in total I have about a dozen torches and two have been used. Like I said, I am one weird dude.....

Reason I asked..Im setting up a Ranger 9 for multiprocess, Ive got (and not hooked up yet) a LN-8 wire feeder, and a gentleman is sending me a HF box. I already have a pedal for tig, so with the HF box, Im going to likely be needing a torch. Ive got a WP18, but its a big bastard and water cooled, and didnt want to complicate things by putting a water cooler along with everything else thats going on the modified utility body trailer that Im turning into a full field service rig.

I might be interested in an air cooled torch, depending on price, phases of the moon and so forth

Ive got to figure out why the Ranger isnt charging the battery, and why it wont automatically speed up when striking an arc. Ive been using it with manual Hi-run switch.
