    Hh140

    Is it possible to convert a Hobart Handler 140 from 120 to 210?

    Anythings possible but I think it would be better to sell the 140 and buy a 220 power source.

    I feel Dennis is right on, way too much work and cost for what you would end up with, keep it and buy a 230V mig or tig to go with it.
