    2011 200 dx

    I've had my 200 DX for a couple weeks now and I have been very impressed. I started 14 years ago with an Idealarc , 4 years ago the company replaced it with a Syncrowave . The 200 DX seems to match the syncrowave in every way until about 180 amps on clean aluminum cast, which isnt really a fair comparison considering the syncro is a 300.

    Thanks Longevity you have another satisfied customer.

    I'm very interested in that DX does it come with a Foot peddle ?
    My Econotig just has the roller adjuster on the gun and most of my welding is done on the bench...
    So I think the peddle might work better in that application.

    Thanks for the review skelchne, that's the machine I'm going to get unless I get a multi-process. Correct me if I'm wrong guys, besides the included foot pedal you can use an on off type button on the torch but not both at the same time?

    I own a Tigweld200 and like the machine alot. I am looking at the DX as an upgrade within the next year. I prefer the voltage control at my foot now that I've got the coordination down with my hands. Thanks for the info.
