I've just ordered a t-loc 3,

By my measurements the sealed part of the 110v transformer will fit in a 3, I'll relocate the switches and wires to the sides.

Watch this space!!

If you had an attic lid you might be able to stick led strip in there and have a worklight as well.

No the motors are different voltage.  110v is for cowboy trades man and 240v are for the elite trades man.  [eek]

Yes; the rest of the world is on 230v single phase, but UK construction is 1/2 @110v which is also 2-phase. Japan is is also 100v.

In the US 2-Phase actually refers to an early type of electrical power used in some industrialized areas, such as Philadelphia, NY, and I think St. Louis. The individual energized wires had there phases offset by 90 degrees.

The 110v power used in the UK would be refered to as Split-Phase.

110v = commercial i.e. shop-fitting, car showrooms, hotels bars shopping malls etc done by professional tradesmen

240v = domestic by mums and dads and their children and cowboys trades men

Today my customer went and bought me fish and chips for lunch.  Sound lad!

240V =competent trades man who know what they are doing and the only cable they might damage are the ones in the walls or floor which are all 240v or higher.

110v= trades man who need molly-coddling because they are likely to kill them selfs by drilling or cutting into their own tool cables and still as likely to damage floor or wall cables with 240v or higher.

...... [dead horse]

The weird thing that gets me is that if you have 110v tools you can work anywhere you want so why wouldn't you have them. With 240v you can only do domestic work.

These days I don't really do site work but I still use 110v tools.
