OK, after writing the above I decided to try her out. Running a power strip out of 1 plug, I ran an Iron rated at 1100W and a circular saw rated at 1500W. The RPM's increased but handled the 2600 watts with no problem. I wanted to trip it out so I plugged a space heater in rated at 1500W and turned it on. It handled all 4100W (rated anyway) with no problem. I had them all running for a few minutes and it never tripped. Based on this, I assume all available power is available from one of the outlets. I'm happy, now I need to build a box to make it whisper.
Just turned on a lamp in the house and a bulb blew. Scared me to death after all this electrical talk!
the iron will draw full power, and so should the heater
the saw being a motor will only draw the power it needs, only a few amps when it's not cutting,, full load only when your cutting thru that 3*12 floor joist
