Does anyone have one of these?  Looks like a great entry level TIG welder, but I'm wondering what the watchouts would be.

Last year I bought a Lincoln invertec v-205-T . I love it great machine small, portable, nice controls, and welds aluminum!

I think that's what this is designed to compete against.

How do they compare price wise? All the same features too? :dunno: I paid $1800 brand new in the box.
