I really do not know if it would or not. I am new to the spot welding and have not tried the cheap 110V HF model. It all depends on what their rating is and how thick of metal they are designed for. Mine is rated for up to 3/16" thick.

And as far as cutting install time by half, I think while it does save some it also takes more prep and fit of the parts because everything has to fit 100% perfect or the spot welder will not work at all. As with plug welding you have a lot more leigh way and it only takes some grinding of the welds and you are done. So it does save time but not really much in the end of the job.
