Review on Blue Demon Plastic General Electrode by Niranjan Reynolds

I like Blue Demon welding products. much but I am not as happy as I would like with this 5/64 rod 6013. Box says 25-60 amps, pink sticker says 115-125 amps for optimum performance. I'm leaning towards a sticker over 70 amps. I've been able to blow through this rod on a small 70 amp AC HF welder with satisfactory results, but not as easily as with a Forney 5/64 6013. This rod seems a little finicky on a 70 amp HF machine . behaves like a 3/32 bar, it takes a few more amps, maybe 80 amps IMO. I will continue to buy and use Blue Demon products, this one too although it's made in China I think it's a good rod overall. at just over 70 amps, almost forgot, the welds look good and the (heavy) slag removal was a breeze. UPDATE: Burned this stick in a Lincoln AC/DC 225/125 buzz box and a 160 amp .70-80 amp inverter welder with decent results. I think the smaller gauge lead wires on the HF 70amp AC welder limit the current a bit. I've burned about 2.5lbs from this rod so far, will buy again if I need more.
