You're overlooking the 3300+ Watts of the "110A@30V" welder running 8 hrs/day.
1 day's welding would require 26.4 KWH minimum which would be hopelessly beyond the capability of the charging unit to replace. In fact, you'd be limited to about 1 day of welding/month even if the charging unit was totally dedicated to this purpose.Of course, you COULD put in your own "wind farm" of 30+ wind chargers.
