Agree, the fan will run slower and the rod may stick easier. Try using the farmer's 6011 rod. Either the 1/8 inch for thin metals and the 3/16 for the larger. Mine doesn't like 1/4 inch rods. The 7011 rod seems to take more power to burn. I have a lincoln 225 buzz box and new they were only around $225 at lowes a few years ago. I love mine.
They have a small duty cycle. Slower fan, means even smaller duty cycle. You may want to monitor the transformer temps.
I was told the older 225 were made of copper, newer one are made of aluminun.
I wouldn't drive 300 miles for one, especially at the price you pay for gas, unless it's free.

not a showstopper if I don't get it, satisfied with the one I have for no more than I have to do.... Just a little taste of home more than anything else :roll:
