Choosing between these two welding soldering equipment picks is a little like comparing a toolbox with a power tool. The 135A Flux Core MIG Welder is a complete multi-process machine, while the Industrial TIG Cooler is a circulating water cooling tank for welding torches. They solve different problems, so the right choice depends on whether you need to create welds or keep an existing setup from overheating.
Quick verdict
If you want one portable machine that can handle flux core MIG, Lift TIG, and Stick welding, the 135A Flux Core MIG Welder is the clear pick. If you need a water cooling tank for welding equipment, the Industrial TIG Cooler is the one to focus on.

Where each product wins
The welder wins when you want a single portable unit for a home workshop. It combines gasless flux core MIG, Lift TIG, and Stick modes, so you can switch approaches without buying a second machine. The 30% duty cycle suits short DIY and repair runs.
The cooler wins when heat management is the priority. It has a water tank and a water circulation heat sink. If your focus is circulating water to cool welding equipment, this tank does the job without trying to be a welder.
Product notes
135A Flux Core MIG Welder 110V Gasless Flux Core/Lift TIG/Stick Portable, IGBT
This welder gives you three processes in one portable 13.51 lb package. It runs on 110V and uses IGBT inverter technology, with an LED display and synergic control that adjusts voltage and wire speed. You can work with gasless flux core wire, use Stick mode, or switch to Lift TIG if you add an extra torch. The 30% duty cycle and semi-automatic feed make it a practical companion for DIY repairs, automotive work, farm equipment, and metal crafts. The main limitation is that Lift TIG needs an extra torch, so the out-of-the-box focus is really flux core and Stick. It suits jobs that fall within the 30-135A input range rather than continuous production work.
10L Industrial TIG Cooler Welder Water Cooler Torch Welding Water Tank 110V NEW
This cooler brings a different kind of capability. The water tank is paired with a 370W pump, 1.5KW heat dissipation, and a maximum pressure of 0.35MPA/60HZ. It is designed to circulate water through welding equipment and keep temperatures under control, with dimensions of 456 × 253 × 328 mm. It operates from -20°C to 60°C. The limitation is that it cannot weld on its own. It does not generate an arc, feed wire, or hold a torch; it is strictly a cooling system. Choose it because you want a dedicated water cooling tank for your welding setup, not because you need your first welding machine.
Final choice by use case
For a first welder or a portable shop helper, the 135A Flux Core MIG Welder at USD 99.99 is the better buy because it can do flux core MIG, Stick, and Lift TIG with an extra torch in a portable package. For heat-heavy TIG work, the Industrial TIG Cooler at USD 246.30 earns its place with its water circulation system. If you are buying your first machine, start with the welder. If your existing setup is overheating and needs cooling, get the cooler.
