Parallel outputs would allow twice the current to flow, so should allow 1-ohm. |

Silver Member Username: MagfanUSA Post Number: 216 Registered: Oct-07 | Nuck, there ARE a few which will easily drive 1 ohm loads. Lincoln Hobart Miller All will drive very low impedence loads. You could probably even weld with them! |
