Hi All

OK I couldn't sleep anyway so I finished the strobe modification and tested
the gap motor.
Here are the results.

Motor specs:
MFG.							AO Smith
HP.							1/3
Phase							1
Hz.							60
Volt							115/208-230
Amp							5.6/2.8

motor is set to run at 230V

Minimum voltage to lock(a bit shaky here)	127
Minimum voltage to run at			130
Max voltage						157
Amp draw at minimum run voltage		approx 0.5
Amp draw at max voltage				2.7

Change in firing angle				Approx 40deg. (need to put a degreed disk on it,
now I've just got lines marked with a felt tip and a protractor.

Hope this helps some,
later
