Welding inverter Huter R-200 from China

You come to the service station to change the hub bearing and the great mechanic simultaneously kills the ABS sensor and everything around it. And at the same time they take money for the work done immeasurably. After several visits to the service station and the money spent, I came to the conclusion that this money spent would be enough for me to buy my personal welding machine from China. In general, there is a Russian proverb “if you want to do something good, do it yourself”. And now, living by this principle, I began to grow overgrown with various instruments. Now I set myself the goal of purchasing this welding machine from China.

I think that a welding machine from China will be used by me several times a year and I decided to look for something inexpensive, not professional and of better quality. Having rummaged through the great expanses of the Runet, after reading tons of thematic pages, after consulting with knowledgeable people, I came to the following conclusions:

• The maximum size of the electrodes is 2-3 mm
• Anti-stick (interruption of the work cycle when the electrode sticks) is required
• Good ignition of the electrode
• Overheating protection
• Don't overpay for the brand

Having looked through many thematic sites about welding machines from China, I caught my eye and liked this welding machine. Now a little about the welding machine itself from China.

After plugging into the network and pressing ON on the front of the inverter, the device gave all the proper sounds and the "Network" diode light came on and the fan immediately turned on. This means that the fan turns on not when the maximum temperatures are reached, but immediately. And this, in my opinion, is a huge plus. Let's just say the simpler and fewer different bells and whistles, the better and more durable the welding machine from China will be. And one more important plus, smooth temperature changes and ventilation from condensation during garage storage ...

After some testing and burning, the floor of a pack of electrodes can confirm the quality of the device and full suitability for welding in the garage.

Tested in a garage on a three or five millimeter piece of iron with a triple electrode. I want to note that small work on the car or, for example, to weld any kind of metal frame, to grab whatever or to make a fence, an electrode with a diameter of 3 mm is mainly used.

Conclusions:

The electrode or, more precisely, the arc ignites quickly without really sticking, even somehow unexpectedly, quickly and easily. And this means that Antistik copes with its task by 5 points ... By the way, who does not know what Antistik is, I explain. Antistick - protects the electrode from overheating, sticking when in contact with iron and shedding the coating. The build quality is excellent.
There is a small drawback: on the handle that increases or decreases the current, there is only an initial and final current value. There is no normal scale. In short, you will have to calculate yourself in the process of work and put risks. The electrode holder and ground wires are short, the wires are not copper. The strands of the wire are made of some kind of light metal, I think it is aluminum or its alloy. But the outer core has a slightly copper color. Most likely, copper plating was applied. They wouldn't be Chinese if there were long wires and copper wire. Saved as always. Wires will need to be lengthened anyway and relatives will be like spare.

Sentence;

• The machine works and even cooks well.
• Wires (grip + ground) for replacement.
• The build quality of the welding machine itself is quite up to par.
• The circuitry is not the best, which corresponds to the price.
• The welding machine will live long - only God knows.
• In general, I am satisfied, the money is fine, you can safely work with welding.
