Hi all,

Found this the other day, looks like an excellent idea for hobby users, is it reasonable value?

a bit more initially, but refills are about half the price

i find the dispoable ones pretty good. people seem to say they only lsast a few minutes, mine seem to last for years. think they just turn the flow up far too high

I just went back to gassless as unless you are doing a whole chassis most jobs are quick repairs. A £10 reel of Gassless wire will do 2 car sills fully seam welded

Really? I just used a 0.7kg roll of gassy wire doing two large sill patches!

I would, but if I do I get loads of unpleasant spattering and bird poo weld! (on 40A, 0.9mm metal thickness, about 4.5 wire speed out of 9).
