This compact Titanium stick 225 is quite impressive. Both 120 and 240 V hookups make this great for the garage or on the job. It has no issue maintaining a solid arc while welding cellulosic (6010 & 6011) rods which is not always the case with inexpensive inverter machines. Well done Titanium.

Yup. Had a customer ask me today, "where'd ya get that welder? I don't recognize the brand." I told him, "Harbor Freight". He was genuinely shocked, saying that it sounded clean & smooth. He was a welder too, it seems. The welder in question is the Titanium Easy-Flux 125. But I also own the Titanium Stick 125. Both are excellent, and well worth the price. I run all my equipment off of the Predator 9000 Generator from Harbor Freight. And the only problem I've ever had was with shredded metal clogging the exhaust. Removed the spark arrestor about a year ago, and haven't had a problem since.

@@hectorguzman28 yeah the only big difference with machine compared to a Lincoln tombstone is that the Lincoln’s are either transformer or transformer-rectifier (DC capabilities) and the Titanium is inverter technology.

I teach welding and so far this is the best budget welder for price ive used. Most cant run 6010 or 11 on 120v. The 225 i bought welded it flawlessly 1/8 6011 maxed on 120v ran like a big welder. Unbelievable that it can do this while drawing 15a sustained on 120v. Efficency must be far above 90% Edit* Did the math. Mathmatically if their numbers displayed are correct, than this welder would be 97% efficent. Which is abnormally high. But i may confirm later with meters.. may be closer to 95% still amazing

120v carries 3680watts. X2 7200. At 20 amps ... 220v carries 7220 watts on 30 amp breaker and that's max. Need a 40 amp breaker to carry 10400watts. You need the 30 amp breaker on the hf harbor freight Preditor 220v. 7250watts. You need a 10,500 watts or more for a 40-50 amp breaker plug in on a generator or house.. on the 30 amp. 220 don't turn up the welder passed like 190 amps out. . And according to this build . You can only weld according these options. On the Preditor.😢

Thank you for this video very informative I actually bought one today although I think I am going to return it since the box was taped up . I had to get the new parts from another box and they gave me a 20% discount 🤔 my question is I only have 120 at home I was practicing on scrap steel but I wanted to weld a spring perch onto my old Ford's Dana 60 I was having difficulty getting it to spark or light . It worked fine for awhile but my son was trying it and the temp light would come on briefly and seemed like every time it did it would not spark it had been sitting awhile before no overheat . I bought the rods from HF 1/8" it says range of 90-up amps am I using the wrong rods ? The hottest I can go is 70 amps I really think the welder itself is bad and I'm olanning on returning it what rod do you recommend for my job at 120volts .
