 + 
 +The 200 looks to be a good model as they are readily a availible on the surplus market and looks like filters are still being sold as of Oct 2013.  Looks like the 105, 200, and 250 take compatible filters.  250 is a microprocessor version of the 200, 105 presumably just has a lower flow rate.

 +Whats with this filter?  It looks like it was burned all over.  Even if someone tried to use this unit for welding this still doesn't make sense as the pre and main filters should have caught the sparks.  Must be some sort of decomposition of the bonding agent?
