Question 1

How does the Helvi Compact 360 AC/DC Welder work for MIG, TIG, and MMA welding?

Accepted Answer

The Helvi Compact 360 AC/DC is an inverter welder that supports MIG/MAG, TIG, and MMA (stick) welding in one portable unit. It provides high output up to 360 A, uses a single‑phase power supply, and includes an arc‑control system to help with stable starts, penetration, and smooth finishes across different welding processes.

Question 2

What welding processes does it support and what materials can I weld with it?

Accepted Answer

It supports MIG/MAG, TIG, and MMA welding. MIG/MAG is suitable for steel and stainless steel, TIG (DC and AC) handles aluminum and other metals with precise control, and MMA is useful for general stick welding on thicker or difficult joints. The AC/DC TIG capability expands aluminum welding options as well.

Question 3

What are the key specs and what’s included in the package?

Accepted Answer

Key specs include up to 360 A maximum output, single‑phase power, and an efficient transformer design for reliable operation. The package comes with a welding torch, welding cable, earth/ground clamp, and safety gloves, along with the Euro‑connector torch for improved control and convenience.

Question 4

How does the arc force control improve welding quality?

Accepted Answer

Arc force control helps manage the current spike at the start of a weld and during short circuits. It allows deeper penetration and smoother arc behavior, reducing sticking and improving arc stability, especially on thinner materials or when starting an weld bead.

Question 5

What is the advantage of the Euro connection torch included with this welder?

Accepted Answer

The Euro connection torch provides a robust, standardized connection that delivers consistent power delivery and easier replacement of consumables. It also offers more reliable gas and electrical connections for stable performance across MIG and TIG operations.

Question 6

What are practical use cases for this welder?

Accepted Answer

It's well suited for home workshops, automotive repairs, bike or metal fabrication projects, and fieldwork where portability matters. The 360 A capability lets you tackle thick sections, while TIG and MMA modes handle precision work and repair tasks on a variety of metals.

Question 7

How do I install and start using the Helvi Compact 360?

Accepted Answer

Connect to a suitable single‑phase power source, attach the ground clamp, and select the welding process (MIG, TIG, or MMA). For MIG, feed the wire and set the amperage; for TIG, set AC/DC mode and amperage (and gas flow if required); for MMA, set the current. Ensure proper ventilation and wear appropriate PPE before starting.

Question 8

What safety considerations should I follow when using this welder?

Accepted Answer

Use a welding helmet with the correct shade, safety gloves, and appropriate protective clothing. Work in a well‑ventilated area, keep flammable materials away, check cables and connections for damage, and avoid water or damp conditions to prevent electrical shock. Follow local safety guidelines and electrical codes.

Question 9

Question 10

Is this welder a good value compared to its alternatives on Fepy.com?

Accepted Answer

The Helvi Compact 360 combines multiple welding processes, a high current capacity, and an included Euro torch with a portable form factor. If you need versatility for thicker sections and precise TIG work, it can offer strong value against single‑process or lower‑amperage options. Compare the amperage range, included accessories, and the weight/size to determine the best fit for your use case.

Question 11

What is the return policy if the welder doesn't meet my needs?

Accepted Answer

If you’re not satisfied, you can review Fepy’s return options for electronics and tools. Ensure the item is unused, in its original packaging, and return within the specified window. Check the product listing or your order details for the exact terms and timeframes.
