Gave this a try out
This is likely too cold too thick material too slow travel speed, material is old shaggy steel that has seen heaps of salt water its 2.5mm wall, i tried 80amps, 70amps, 60ampsthan settled on 40amps and i was able to hold the arc, the generator is a 2200watt (2000watt output) inverter generator
Not sure what 40amps x volts? = watts
This is just an experiment im hopping to pick up a bigger generator and link the two in parallel
Trying to avoid getting another 15amp line installed as im renting and i lost my last 15amp install when i moved house
