[QUOTE="mac5005, post: 613180, member: 4650"] The rebel reads arc voltage just like the caddymig. This is what makes it superior to all other conventional mig machines. Set it up and it reads arc voltage to keep output constant and consistent. The rebel em (mig only) is still about $400 more than the caddy mig was, which is odd considering nearly same machine. That pushes into the realm of justifying the price of the mig/tig/stick for another $400. You can use a spool gun with the rebel yet the caddymig was advertised as being able to push aluminum wire without a spool gun. Can anyone confirm if you can run sil-bro wire through the rebel like you could with the caddymig? Edit: Both the millermatic mp 215 and the Lincoln 210 mp machines also both read arc voltage to keep output consistent regardless of user technique and stick out changes. All of these require an algorithm to calculate output changes based on arc voltage input. My point is that I very seriously doubt that all 3 use the same algorithm to calculate this. I have welded with the esab caddymig and can confirm that the technology works and is far superior to conventional CV mig in most application. I have no doubt that esab used the same technology in the rebel, and that very little on the programming side changed, only expanded to match hardware. I haven't welded with the Miller or the Lincoln and can't say about how well their claims translate to actual weld quality. [/QUOTE]
