Yup, Area H, Regional District of Nanaimo, Vancouver Island. Heck, I was talking to the chief of the Indian reserve out here. He said when his Aunt and Uncle set up the first houses on the reserve in the '70's they built to CMHS standards, even though it wasn't required anywhere. I was...
ooh yeah. A simple and elegant solution. Thanks very much for that Waross. Now you've got me thinking. I have a good used car battery in the shop, a small solar panel 'maintainer' for it and with a 120v relay I could run some real horsepower. Bright 12v MR16 bulbs or LED equivalent and get...

Bill,
I'm curious, did you add the capacitor in series or parallel? Well...
I am re-purposing an A.O. Smith Mod. F48SNS4L6 Ser. 7193 three speed motor from a squirrel cage fan assembly into a small carpenter's jointer. The motor is of unknown history. It's a 115V 1 ph. three speed motor Type UF 6 (MAX 10) amps 1625 rpm motor with a rated cap. of 15mf 370v. The motor...
