    Hey guys,
    Have a job coming up in a few weeks that is all aluminum. Shop fab is no problem between the dynasty and spool gun but kinda struggling with option's for the field install. Have a diversion 180 that goes AC but it's plug style isn't happening on the ranger 250 I do much install work with.
    Haven't found any spool gun's that work at all or very well with many remote power sources. Thoughts and suggestion's greatly appreciated!

    Not too sure if it is any use to you but I recently found a product called HTS 2000; I haven't used it but the youtube video of it looks impressive. My boss used it recently to fix a radiator on a bike.
