Yeah. this is what I was thinking. It's an ancient clunker I picked up at a garage sale. New ones are surely more sophisticated.Baluncore said:Get a variable speed drive. That will limit the startup current, or can be programmed for a slower speedup.
The other thing, of course, is that my work shed is powered by a 50ft. extension cord (albeit heavy duty) off the house. I'm prob'ly losing a half a dozen amps there. Really got to get around to burying a proper cable.
