Esab Ruffian ES 150G Welder Generator (0707070150)

This is a lightweight, all-in-one DC stick welder and AC generator built around a 14 HP Kohler gas engine, rated for up to 150 amps of welding output at a 60 percent duty cycle alongside up to 4.5 kW of generator starting power.

Running tools and welding together

Because the generator output is independent of the welding circuit, it can power lights, grinders, hand tools, light-duty plasma cutters, or even a separate MIG or TIG welder at the same time the stick side is in use, with four 120-volt GFCI receptacles and one 240-volt receptacle on the panel, each protected by its own breaker and cover. An adjustable arc-force control is tuned to help with 6010 electrodes specifically, on top of general-purpose stick settings.
