I picked up an old ESAB A10-160K with bead, spot and stitch welding capabilities for about 60 bucks. This machine is awesome; small, no fan (quiet), dead simple to use. I used on on 208V for a while but decided to run it on 460V as I installed a 460V circuit in the shop. Anyway, upon switching it over to 460, I forgot to change the control transformer wire and subsequently burned up a resistor on the board. Fortunately, the control transformer (42V) is fine. I want to replace the resistor on the board but it's fried to pieces so I can't tell what value it is. If anyone out there knows what value it is or could send me a photo of their board, that would be amazing. It is resistor #19, labeled on the board, right next to the big capacitor.
