scotslad Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 I must admit i bought a SIP 1 a few years ago which wasn't a lot more and can't get it too work, the dark phase is always to dark to see wot ur doing . Really struggle to see the weld and wot ur doing, spoke to a few folk that also have the same probelm with them. I prefer the hand held shield, bit old school but i find i can weld better when i see it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortune Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 If you look on the bay you can get them for as little as £16-£17. At that price you ain't lost much if you don't get on with it and if you do drop it in the drink or poop it doesn't matter to much and you never know it might work anyway.
