As for new features, there are a few that need to be mentioned.
Rugged and Functional
Only 46lbs with a new roll cage design. Visually, immediately you will notice a more durable and modern look on the Power MIG 215. It is only slightly larger and packed with even more technology and features than the previous version (Power MIG 210.) Not just 5 more amps of power, its fully loaded and designed to bring your at home multiprocess welding to the next level. Not to mention the full color LED screen!
ArcFX® Technology - Provides instant visual feedback on how settings affect the weld outcome. This feature is found on the POWER MIG 260 so it has been tested and proven already.
Memory Capability - Easily recall saved settings to get welding faster. Take a look at this Bakers video below at the bottom of this post explaining the memory capability function on the POWER MIG 215.
