Yes, I submitted my modification details and they were approved.
In fact, my machine developed a fault with the motherboard that Deni and I went through trouble shooting and I ended up sending my machine back and promptly got a replacement. Obviously the fault had nothing to do with the pedal mod. So his world is reliable.
I'll send you my mod details by PM.Cheers, Joe

Also have the AIG TIG 200P
Hi all, I also have one of these units, received it about 4 weeks ago form the March pre-orders from Australian Industry Group in Perth.
It's also my first TIG machine (hopefully my last as I'm happy enough with the results).
All good so far, done 90% aluminum welding with it.
I have been looking for a Australian forum to discuss settings for various jobs on this machine, this welding forum might be the best place...
I'll start a thread so this ones purpose is not diluted.
Cheers,
Martin

Thread troubles ?
Guys I created a discussion/setup thread for this model TIG in this welding forum here and posted it. It's in the thread listing just fine, but I can't open the post text I wrote (or see the six attached images).
Anyone know why that would be ?
My login says I can post new threads and images...
I did query the admin but maybe somebody else knows what I've done wrong.

Themachine isnice and light and its small, the torch is very comfortable but has a weird connection, earth lead is very cheap, power cable to the machine is very thick, packaging was really good i only had one mark on the lid of the box, it came with a UWeld ball float regulator
Looks ok so far for a $600 welder

That's the same torch as on the 200P, a WP-26 seems to be the industry name for that size.
I bought this accessory set linked below for the torch, which turned out to be very good quality for the cheap price. I use the gas lenses and cups all the time.

Long term I think I buy a WP-9 size torch for the TIG, I'm finding the WP-26 awkward for the small stuff I seem to be welding.Last edited by mr.sneezy; 25th Jul 2021 at 12:28 AM. Reason: Corrections on connector

This is my 3rd ac/dc tig both previous models have had the 26 size torch, for me i cant run my welders on a trolley so my torch cables run from my shoulder all the way to the ground standing its abit of weight pulling on the hand piece
For my dc welding i have a little 17 i think size torch its a beauty very light to hold way lighter than the 26 torch, i have never used a size 9 but can imagine how light it would be
I may be tacking a job together using the AIG tig in the next few days so i'll see how it goes

Maybe I should try the WP-17 first then if it's significantly lighter. Do you know if the power/gas fitting inside the 26 torch handle is the same on a 17 ?
If so I could just buy a head and handle.
