I have a syncrowave 180. Does what you tell it to. Tig, Stick, Beer holder. I have the foot pedal and fingertip switch on the torch. If you are a one man operation, I suggest getting the fingertip remote, but most of the time I use the footpedal.

As for the balance, best advice is practice. No one setting is perfect for everything.

The Miller website has all the info you need, and the forums are outstanding.

I've got the syncro 200. Pretty simple machine. Basically learned how to tig with it with no training or advise. Just read the manual (which is extremely simple), throw it on DC, and start screwing around with the amperage settings on some scrap metal.

an easy starting point is 1 amp per thousandth of material thickness. so for 1/8" thick mild steel set it to 125, and then ease into the pedal, you wont really need the full 125 to weld the material. then adjust to your preference from there...just for starting out....also usually the balance is for welding on A/C (aluminum)

You tube is another good source of information.
