@Altintas what do we know about the MCU? Is it that STM32F051 from the other picture? Is that the main welder controller? Do we have source or was it reversed engineered?
Sorry for the barrage of questions, just excited

Yes it is the Controller Board

I suspect that the lock bits were not set, and some bright spark over on the russian forum was able to read the binary out...@Altintas what do we know about the MCU? Is it that STM32F051 from the other picture? Is that the main welder controller? Do we have source or was it reversed engineered?

Yes, I took a look at the Russian forum; unfortunately, the translation is a tad wanting in places - but I think you're right. It seems it was entirely reverse engineered, possibly via two different firmware versions (but that bit of the discussion appears to be in PM sadly!)
I thought it unlikely the code was in the wild, but it would've been nice

Nice one - hope it works!
We will see

Looks like they ship to the UK too...and price hasn't changed. The must have got a big shipment it I'm guessing.
OK, just ordered one...eeek...
Well, my welder arrived from Spain today!
Need to sort out a argon pipe. I am going to use the regulator and flow meter of my Tec arc mig. But I have had to source a flow meter 3/8" BSP barb fitting. I have some 1/4" hose and welder came with a quick fitting for the machine end.. I now need to source some Tig wire and Tungstens and I will be away. Oh and some gas. If all goes well I think the mig will be going up for sale as I think Tig is more suitable for my tinkering on the bench. I don't weld cars anymore!
