Victor welding tips are a premium item, priced from $40 to $60 dollars.

I found some on eBay from "Welding City" for about 10 bucks each..

Has anyone had any experience with this product.

I do small hobby/automotive projects.

Or should I purchase a 100 series body? Those tips are more reasonably priced, and I like the smaller lighter body, easier to handle when doing small gauge stuff.

Any comments appreciated.

yea I've done quite a bit of torch brazing last year, the 100 is so much better then the 300, at least for what I was doing.

Thanks for the reply, 100 series torch bodies seem to be reasonably priced as are the welding tips. The body being smaller is probably better balanced, and easier on the hands, coupled with 3/16 hose I think this setup would be much easier to use than the 300 series body with 1/4 inch hose. I am always "fighting" to find a nice comfortable balance with the 300.

Thanks again.

The only thing I didn't like is I thought the hose length (with the 100) was a little short
