Need suggestions for a decent welder than can do 1/4" thick steel on 120V.

Prefer Miller or decent name brand equivalent.
Dual 240V/120V capability is ok, but i don't have 240 outlets and don't want to convert right now considering how little work i'll be doing.

Also, duty cycle doesn't need to be that high, again, due to the small amount of work i'll be doing.


Thanks.
 
I used a 110V Lincoln Mig from Lowes for years. Its been a great welder and being 110v is super handy. No problem welding thicker stuff, just slow down a bit and let the heat penetrate. I had such good luck with the Lincoln I only upgraded to a 220V after 15 years because I found a great deal on a big almost new Hobart. The Lincoln is still my backup, I keep flux core in it for welding outside.

This looks to be the current equivalent:
It was about $100 cheaper 15 years ago.
