I have a Lincoln 180 and I've been using it as a flux-core machine for some beginner projects. I ran out of flux-core and I've been thinking about buying a Argon/CO2 bottle. I was looking through FB marketplace and found a local wrought iron fence company selling all of their equipment today and I see 2 bottles for sale in their ad. The contact person doesn't know what gas it is or what size the tanks are. She guesstimated that the smaller bottle is 4 feet high. I'm hoping that's a 125cf bottle (weighs about 75lbs) or smaller bottle. I'd like to put it on the back of my little welding cart.
How do I know if the tank is C25? Is there a marking on it? Will my local gas provider fill it up? They are all closed today, and the welding equipment is being sold off today yard sale style - so I can't call the gas providers to confirm.
The price says best offer. What should I offer for the smaller of the 2 tanks in the picture?
