The plugs and receptacles tend to get hot with these plugin units, and that problem seems to be worse with 120V.

And, although you save a bit on wire with 240V, a two-pole breaker is required, so the 240V installation may cost a bit more on a short run.

I vote for 240V in any case.

We can put this one to rest now that age has weighed in. :grin: The crazy thing is that I agree with grandpa!! I'm marking this on my calendar. 31 January, 2008 @ 1408: for a brief moment in time, age and youth came together in glorious harmony. Then, normal life resumed. :grin: :grin: :grin:
