Greetings,
No idea about voltage differences I would have thought they would be the same less volts more amps so Status Quo or even Led Zepplin.

Have you noticed that heavy metal isn't what it used to be since the price of scrap went down ?

Anyway I digress as usual...........

Got a Kress 800 here, 240 volts one, and it's been a brilliant tool,
I tend to run it on position 1 to 2 so 10,00 to 12,000 as it's reasonably quiet at those speeds. Flat out it is noisy if you are stuck at the side of it.
far better than the cheap routers.

Road testing one of the 400 hz 24,000 rpm spindles at the moment, they are as noisy at 24 thou as the Kress is at 12 thou, big difference in price though.
