I have easy to follow and thorough step by step tutorials "do it yourself" (DIY) videos to help you with your broken lawn and garden equipment including snowblowers and zero turn mowers.
I do my best to teach you how to easily diagnose problems the fastest, quickest and most efficient way with real repairs beyond just replacing a spark plug. These tips are for both the homeowner and shop owner.
Whether it be a handheld, two stroke, two cycle engine like a chainsaw, weed eater, weed whacker, string trimmer, grass trimmer, line trimmer, hedge trimmer, strimmer, brush cutter, leaf blower, or four stroke, four cycle units like a lawnmower, wood splitter, lawn tractor, zero turn mower, snowblower, pressure washer, generator or a ride on mower that needs parts installed or replaced, I’m your go-to guy.
My favorite brands of spark plugs are NGK and Champion and are the ones I recommend.
I’ve been a small engine mechanic for many decades and also run my own repair shop so my videos are loaded with tips and tricks that I have learned and want to share with you. You will also find many tool and product reviews from top brands on my channel as well.

Mainstream tool brands will just tell China Btobi to rebrand their wielder, then sell it at a higher price.
I'm retired now and live in the city, but in my younger days I used to do quite a bit of welding. My father and I had an electric welder, spot welder, acetylene torch, etc. in our autobody shop but I would have jumped on something like this if it was available at the time. This would have been excellent for small welding jobs in confined areas. Easy to set up and use plus I really like the trigger control. BTW I am a Canadian and I live in Alberta. I really like TEMU and I buy from them on a regular basis. Anytime that I had an issue I contacted them online and it was resolved right away. Thank you for the video!
thanks Dony, The variability in your welds could be due to the rods. On the farm here we have a 250 AMP AC stick welder and 6013 rods are easier to use than 7018 which I recall is low-hydrogen and works better in a DC welder. But it does give you a stronger weld once you get used to it. I think the inverter is AC. John in Manitoba
Personal choice, but TEMU is on my Do Not list. Maybe my info sources are biased, but I will let other folks take the risk for now.

can you ask an experienced professional to try?
For reference, I dont do much stick welding anymore but a 6010 rod penetrates deeper and is better for dirty metal so you can turn the power down for that thinner sheet. 7018 is much more smooth and easier to use.
Wow, this looks like a nice unit for the price. I have only tried a couple of times at friends shops to weld. Welding is a skill I have on my bucket list and this may work for a good start at it. 👍👍👍👍👍
The added weight of holding and manipulating the unit as opposed to just using a welding stinger seems tiring considering the finesse required to lay down a quality bead.

The BBB decided that what the preparer offered me, free tax prep is good enough as a penalty instead of doing something constructive, like taking away their great rating. So, whether BBB approved or not, I wouldn't go with their opinion of anything. Just my opinion.

I have been a welder for over 30 years and you cannot use 3.2 rods on low amps. You need to switch out to thin rods drop the amps and stitch weld.

Thank you for the great review-As a Small Engine mechanic this would be perfect for the once in a while quick weld job
Nice review Donny, thanks. I'm impressed with the heat that that guy can deliver. For a quick weld it beats dragging out the Miller, but it's the big welder for bigger jobs.
Dony great test. Looks promising. Thank you.
Nice video Dony, for you're viewers to know about Temu, I have spent thousands of dollars on hundreds of orders from tools to fishing poles and lures and household items and I am happy with their excellent service and quality items and if there is a damaged or missing item in you're order they will credit, replace or Refund you're money whatever you want to do, the products they sell are good quality In my opinion at the fraction of the cost You would be elsewhere In the U,S.

dont, oh, i am a pro welder. It's just a stupid idea to have the entire welding machine in your hand. The weight take away control of the rod while welding. And in hard to reach places also the sight on your weld. You can find better welders for the same price at discounters. The best thing you can do is to look a and old used pro stick welding machine for the same price or a little more. And dont mind the weight, the heavier the better. That means they have a copper coil around a cast iron core. Those are the most stable and controllable welders.
Seems pretty good for the money, like he said as long as you practice with it and use the correct size rods
Tips to anyone out there practicing with these. Tips for your safety, don’t hold that rod with your hand. Practice without using your hand. Remember that’s live currents in your hand, don’t get in the habit because the day those gloves get wet, or the day you feel daring to hold it bare handed for a quick spot. You will die. Other tip preheat metal before the weld. Be creative since you’re new I’d recommend a small butane torch. Torch the spots you want to weld and hit it. That’s how you can arc easier without getting stuck for smoother welds my friend. Good luck
Great review, your conclusions are very similar to others that have used it. I see it as a great light weight small job/repair welder. Portable and mobile. Thanks for doing these tool reviews and how to small engine repair videos. Very good useful info.
I am shocked that this welder is so inexpensive. I will be getting one myself really soon. Thanks for the information. Keep up the good work. 😊👍🏿

Dont, you will be wasting you money. For around the same price there are stick welders build the traditional way, those are much better. All that size in your had take away sight on your weld in corners, the weight make it hard to control. You cant roll this between your fingers if you weld around a tube. I know, i used to be a professional welder in the oil industry as well as ship building.

Also I see with your description you're still letting temu sponsor videos? I found it much more of a hassle than it was worth, i find their affiliate program just a complete waste overall.

Thats what i thought too. Beside of that, an obvious non-welder advice on a welding machine. It's like an RC model pilot want to learn you how to fly the real thing.
Thank you💪
One thing I never hear people talk about on these kinds of videos is if you don’t use good Eye protection you can really get your eyes burned from the welding glare. It is a must to have a good lens and to not have a leak in the sheilds where the lenses connect into the shield. If you ever get burned eyes you will know what I’m talking about but just imagine sand in your eyes. And it doesn’t go away for hours. I went through this years ago and trust me it does not feel good. If it ever happens to you you will never forget it.
Interesting concept for a sub $100 welder. Many possibilities, looking at alternatives.
Thank you for sharing Don!
Thanks for the vid D..!! I just saw this on my Temu. I thought Ryobi entered the welding gig..lol Thanks for taking the time!!
Thanks brother
The welder lasted long enough to make the video. Pretty impressive for temu.
I would be a complete beginner, so this may not be a good newbie/learner device for me. However, it is a great price with the discount, and not bad without it, for everything you get. I watched a video comparison Todd's Project Farm and selected from his winner for me. I still haven't bought it, but I might one day. Great video, Don! 👍👍 Thanks
2024-06-12. I am in Canada and ordered one from Temu yesterday at $82. Thought I would give it a try. I have a Lincoln 225, a Lincoln 180 Mig Pak, and a Deca Decastar 160, and finally a Yeswelder for TIG welding, so why not add this one. Could come in handy when camping, I always carry a generator anyway.
When you look at inventer welder box, there is mostly air. That why this welder can be small. The pushing or pulling the rod give different results.Some rods need positive ground.
dNice video Don if Jake and i did not have the MIG and TIG welders in the shop at EP we would have likely ordered one. For the cost this for sure fits the small DIYer shop and if a homeowner needs a deck weld repair this unit is basically paid for itself instead of needing to take to a shop for welding.

that is awsome donny iam sold for anything i would need it for it would be great thank you for sharing sir
Great job on the video.....as usual. But putting it into practice was a nice touch. 3/32 have alway been the best size rods for shop work. I like 6011 or 6013 By the way, those anger blades breaking loose happen so often, poor welding in the factory. i just repaired one a couple days ago, with this welder you can bring it to the blower instead of having to bring the blower to the shop.
I believe this a DC welder. Is there a setting to reverse polarity on this one? Some electrodes will suggest positive on the rod some other, negative on the rod. This can have an impact on the quality of welding.

Not that I know of
I think that's great, for the price. Then got to thinking of my generator s started with 1500 watts,(not enough), then 3,800watts (not enough), now have 10,000 (more than enough). Think I'll get medium sized when it comes to my welder and hope I end up with a good one
If it is worth welding it is worth cleaning first. A clean surface welds much better.
Good review, if I needed a welder for small jobs I would buy this product.
Great video, very impartial and fair 👍
Looking at the definition of inverter welder. It states that it is a DC welder. So what is the polarity. As a Welding Technologist, some rods prefer strait polarity and others reverse polarity. This may be where some welding on these videos goes not so good. For example a 6010 is a reverse only rod. Is this machine set to reverse. As for general welding the rule is strait polarity more heat on the plate, and reverse if you want more heat on the rod. I think I might have to buy one of these.
I couldn't help but notice that the input power was 4.6 KW. My 120V output is rated for 20 Amps. I used a KW to Amps converter to find out that I would need a 38.3 amp circuit breaker to operate this tool. Is that right? I've been wrong before but??? Maybe in the country where this tool comes from the calculations are different.
That welder works great on small stuff. Mine is awesome. You must have the right rod. Most Rods won't work.
1-2 repair jobs can pay for itself with this thing.
For some odd reason, I can smell it when you opened the box.
It’s a pretty cool little welder Good video👍
I am not a professional welder either but my coworker (25 years experience in welding) taught me how to weld and buy the appropriate tools, now I own 220v Lincoln stick welder for all-day heavy use and a 120v stick inverter welder for small welds that I carry in my work truck. I am in construction. I personally wouldn't trust that, not even for free.

Might work better if you cleaned that mill scale off where your ground goes. The better the ground the better the results.
better use for that is removing stubborn bolts. simply tax the bolts head to free it. what you reckon?
Great Video its much easier to weld with an auto darkening mask, i find that the welds look better if i use a slow side to side motion with the rod/electrode, also if you remove all of the slag prior to another weld the results are also much better :)

They definitely have a reputation for fraud!!! Run very fast from temu!
Good video, good tool for money
The cleaner the surface the better the weld will always be. Plate thickness takes more power to create enough heat in that much metal. A thicker rod will take a bit more power. Smaller rod for thinner metal, less power.
Inflation is fast, 4 months and $20 price increase. Run for the hills!
Can you weld a bolt or a nut to the sheet metal?
At first glance, it seems sort of gimmicky. But you showed its not too bad for DIY homeowner type use. Definitely not for serious structural use. I wouldn't be welding on the frame of my pick-up truck, but very easy to fix that broken wheelbarrow. I would like to hear your thoughts on welding overhead. I'm thinking it might be tiring with the weight of the inverter in your hands. Thanks for the video. Cheers!
