Looking to get a new Plasma Cutter
« on: Nov 26, 2007, 11:46:34 AM »
Hey all, I was looking to get a new Plasma Cutter. Was thinking about a Miller Spectrum 375 X-TREME, but just for shits and giggles I was checking the prices of them on ebay and came across this one from Longevity Entertainment. I've never heard of them and was wondering if any of you have and/or know anything about them. Can't find any website or company information other then what is on ebay. Here a link.

Any info is appreciated, TIA.

3 CAT scans a MRI and some time with the shrink and it's comfirmed. I'm just not right in the head.

Haven't heard anything bad about them.  A 40 amp model can cut up to 5/8"  so a 60 amp could cut up to 1" thick material if needed.  A couple of welding supply shops around here have them in their store.  For the price its not bad.  :twocents:

Thanks for the info. Have you ever happen to see one of them in action.
It's a much nicer price and seems like really nice equipment, but I still hate paying for junk and then having to pay them more to fix what shouldn't have needed fixing. Looking at their feed back they've had this problem. 


did you buy it?
No. As I mention I never heard of the company Longevity Entertainment and wanted to see if anyone else has or knew anything about them. I'm still thinking of it though, but not sure. Right now I'm waiting on a reply from them on their return policy.

Yeah it seemed like a good one and I've used some Miller equipment and like how they worked. I usually lean more toward the Lincoln company, but the Miller spectrum 625 just seemed to have more of what I wanted and a little better price.

I talked to a couple of buddies of mine that have friends that have these and they haven't had alot of problems with their units.  When they did have a problem they called or emailed and got a quick response back and payed very little to a free exchange for whatever was broken.  You pay for what you get, so it's kind of a gamble if you want to take the chance  :dunno:

Don't buy the Thermal Dynamics Drag-gun, it sucks ass.
I recommend the Hypertherm or Miller
