myredracer,
My comfort zone for voltage is no lower than 107.
As day warmed up, the 15 amp circuit gave up the ghost with only the roof air running. I did not think to check the wattage, unfortunately.
I've personally had 30 amp in line female Cameco outlets melt when subjected to low voltage on a 15 amp supply. So my comfort zone is 12 amps or 80% of the 15.
I'm often at friends homes and burning up one of their outlets would be something to avoid.
Again, this particular shore power is weak as water, which is why I chose it for the "test bed".
