Keep in mind, I am no expert on the options/features between one TIG and another. I won't be welding for a living obviously, but I will be welding time-to-time for my job... then of course personal use. I would just want something that is going to properly do what I need it to do. What suggestions do you personally have? Probably nothing thicker than 1/8" aluminum. What features should I be concerned with? It does not need to be ultra portable. I would primarily use it for custom aluminum car audio amplifier racks and custom wall mounts for flat screen TV's etc. We happen to do a lot of commercial audio/video at restaurants etc. We do like 45 LCD screens in each of the Buffalo Wild Wings for example.
Thanks for your time,

@Toby.. It has nice feature which are "easier to use" than some of the higher end ones. Which leaves you room to learn and improve. It's also 45lbs I think... Does both AC/DC... A bit pricey. But it seems you would benefit from it.
***Edit scratch that.. I thought you said it NEED to be ultra portable... A Syncrowave 200 would easily suffice for your needs. It's a proven and reliable machine.
@dumbguy.. I'd look into a Dynasty 200. It has a bit more power than the Diversion. I believe it has some better features too. More AC settings.
It will use less power than the Syncrowave. And doesn't weigh a shit ton.
I'd recommend you save up and get one of these. You won't be disappointed.
