How much wattage does it take to run this welder?

The wattage requirement for the Titanium UNLIMITED 200 welder can be estimated using the given current input values:

- At 120V:
- GMAW/FCAW: 22A → 120V × 22A = 2,640W
- SMAW: 24.9A → 120V × 24.9A = 2,988W
- GTAW: 20.8A → 120V × 20.8A = 2,496W

- At 240V:
- GMAW/FCAW: 36A → 240V × 36A = 8,640W
- SMAW: 33.6A → 240V × 33.6A = 8,064W
- GTAW: 28.7A → 240V × 28.7A = 6,888W

Thus, the maximum wattage requirement is approximately 8,640W at 240V.
