This little Welder is not bad for the price! 115 volt is ok for small welding jobs. Ir you have a 230 volt plug it will run way better for your 1/8 7018 or 6011 6013 7014 rods . Not very good with 6010 . Good price for the hobbyist or small welding jobs. Thanks for watching! Please if you like it share and subscribe if you don’t that’s ok too.
