According to our welding device expert
If you're planning on welding thin sheets of stainless steel, iron, and copper, you need a welding device with a pulse function. The GYS TIG 168 DC HF is 1 of those. This 230-volt TIG welding device even has a double pulse function, which you use to weld nice-looking "crescent moons". In addition, the welding device offers an option for high-frequency welding, which reduces the risk of the electrode sticking to the work piece. You can easily store your 5 favorite and most frequently used settings, so you can do similar welding jobs with the same ones. The settings can be easily read from the digital display. The electrodes you use with the TIG 168 DC HF have a diameter of 1.6 to 4 millimeters.

I give 5 stars without hesitation. The description as it is online today (August 22, 2019) on the Coolblue website incorrectly (!) indicates that only 2-stroke operation is possible and that one has to keep pressing the button of the torch while welding. This is not true! It is possible to work in 2-stroke, 4-stroke and pulse mode. I have been using the device as a hobby welder for 6 weeks now and I am very satisfied with it. I did a large welding job with steel wall thickness 3 mm on current settings between 90 Ampere and 105 Ampere. The device did not flinch. I certainly didn't have to pause to let the device cool down. (Only pause because my workpiece eventually got too hot.) The HF ignition works phenomenally well. The welding current can be set very accurately, so that welding thin material is not a problem either. Welding is child's play with this device.
