On "4" it stutters a lot, regardless of wire speed setting, like the current
is going somewhere besides into the weld.
The other settings seem to be normal, unchanged, work ok.
This unit is designed to run on a 15a circuit, though it used to have a peak
draw of just a squeak over 18a at the highest setting.

Two years or less. The welding shop says it's rated to draw that much (Like
you said!), and that it may be a supply problem...
