You've no idea i much i looked around for this information, according to this the only difference between DC and AC both at identical Volts/Amps is that the heat concentration point vary depending on the direction of the polarity, as for AC the heat concentration point will be always the same as...

No, copper dissolves and gets deposited back - as it does it alternatively on both electrodes (that's what AC is about) the net effect is zero I think that's more of a theory, there's actually some byproduct left on the water that i cannot identify nor as copper or anything else, i would...

Yes, as far as i know that transformer unit has 2 functions, one of them is to transform to DC (if needed) and the other one is to absorb heat and electrical feedback to avoid break switches to pop off when the the stick starts to "short circuit" (or so I've heard), which is also the function of...

Hi everyone, Some time ago i made a DIY AC Stick Welder, while i understand the basics of the machine, heat disipation, AC Arc and etc dynamics, I've some doubt i would like to clear before i proced with some modifications. First ill attach its specs and diagram: It works on...
