Tripping Pro Power breaker with 120v welder

[v2h8484]

The Ryobi unit probably has an inrush current limiter while Harbor Freight one probably does not and saved 10 cents in cost.

I’m hoping my new Flash can run my Miller 190 MiG welder with and without the spool gun. According to the spec sheet the welder draws 21.7 amps at 240v, so I’m hoping the 30 amp plug is enough.

Did this welder work without tripping the propower?

I’ve had my truck a week, but I haven’t had the need to test it with the Miller 190.

Thanks for the feedback. The only reason I ask is I’m looking to purchase a MillerMatic 211 to use off my Lightnings 30 amp plug. I’ve been using an inexpensive stick welder but it keeps tripping the pro power, was hoping you had better results since your welder has similar specs to the one I’m looking to purchase.
