There seems to be some great aversion to admitting who the manufacturer of
the panels is, as I have not heard back from them since. Unless their reply
is hiding among the many unopened e-mails that are clutering my inbox???
Thanks for the 'Sears' clue for welder shopping. Anyone ever hear of a MIG
PAK 10 by Lincoln?
I was at the www.LincolnElectric.com site the other day and noted that they
have a welder there for about $250 US in re-conditioned form. The warranty
is 90 days.
I'm somewhat surprized that no-one on the list has yet to install panels
from A.H. Spares. I would hate to be the guinea pig.
I have a couple of Steelcraft panels that are reputed to be good and 'look'
good to me, but I have yet to install them.
Good luck!
