Talk about trail ready. Cordless-rechargable or plug it in for full power capabilities. Flux core wire feed, weld up to 1/4 steel!!!
Wow! This is cool. Its the size of a small suitcase and just over 50 lbs.

The power welder you just hook up 2 batteries to and go is cool too.

Oh come on.... That's walking around money.

OK, not for me, but my wife can spend this amount in less than an hour.... I've seen her do it...

I was thinking one like this is more budget friendly, easier to carry around, and people with them swear they're good welders.

Straight from the source http://www.readywelder.com/
They have a forum where they do give aways to members.

I like the Hobart Cordless because it is self contained and useable as a full functioning welder.
I like the Ready Welder because it is compact, more affordable, and easier to transport.
It really depends on how much welder you need. For something to have just for emergency repair or very seldom use, the ready welder is a great buy.
