Maybe the k-weld is better with a very large heatsink, the electrodes are nicer but the sequre sq-sw1 which is the source for these is the chinese’s new “somehow made a big leap” thing on par with the TS-100 and 18650 electric screwdrivers that they’re come out with. I’m not sure what made them stop making clunky plastic crap and switch over to this but it seems like all the niche hobby equipment is seeing a newer version, for some reason always with “oled screen” and “mini” in the title. Out of the box, for $190 on banggood, its a better purchase than a kit which can’t really weld .3 until you use active cooling
This does assume the thing doesn’t break next week, but im betting they’ve been using it in china for months. I know internally flipsky have been using it
I think def the Chinese market for this sort of stuff is getting way better
Especially since they used to have the sunkko rubbish which just blew up in your face
The only big advantage (if the flipsky is as good as people are saying) of kweld or malectrics is the real warranty on it
True, im sure there will soon be a ~190 bundle which includes tips, only the wand and no extras which would be what most people need/want (Sample nickle and spacers are nice but not nessesary ) in time. The price will creep down a bit as more aliexpress chads start selling it
if you leave the welder in your basket on the sequere website and put in your email but dont pay after a day or two they will contact you and if you say i want a discount they offer 5% off and a pair of extra tips
have been using my flipsky welder for the past couple of days and really good
getting really consistent good welds and everything worked awesome
the pen was really nice and let me have good consistency with my welds
the single pack i did used a full set of electrodes but they come with 2 sets spare so thats quite useful
eitherway never had either a kweld or malectrics to compare to but seems really good
tldr: very good welder but got nothing to compare to so dunno if better then others
