yeah mine is 110v

I've found that it's excellent for sticking flat stock together but too crude for sheet metal and exhaust typically. That said, half of my exhaust is done with it haha. Let me know if you want to try it out and see how you like it, I haven't used it in months.

For years I've been planning on selling mine to pick up a Hobart Handler 140, that craigslist unit looks like an excellent deal especially if it includes regulator. The 140 is the largest you can run on 110v so it's capable of doing everything from sheet metal to heavy stuff and will last forever. The Hobarts are usually regarded as the best beginner welder because it's so capable. I've used the 135 also and it's excellent. If you're considering the used market and end up liking mine I would let it go for around what the harbor freight unit and warranty would cost, but that Hobart is probably better in the long run if you get really into it.
