The speed of an AC motor is determined by the line frequency, not voltage... so a 60 Hz AC motor designed for 110V but fed with 220V 60 Hz will run at normal speed, but the windings will soon overheat and burn out.
Not quite as epic as some of your other videos but still very good. What is that fan out of? Looks like one of those cooling fans in an overhead projector.
maybe you could run your swedish cassettedeck on your 240 v system if it is made for 220 v you maybe should put a resistor in series with the transformer to get it down to about 230 or 220v. or is your 240 v system 3 phase?
@agfamatic91 well technically it's only 2 phase 230V but we just call it 240, some people call it 220 230, or even call normal house current 110 when its 120 lol
Great POP, that was cool!

go to try dousing the fan in gas next time:Peven better but do it far away from structures

we ran a 110 v box fan on the 330v welding supply at the shop ,what speed it got before the boom, want to do a toaster with the safety removed

whats fun is putting 120v dc or 400v dc to little toy 6v motors. the whole motor starts to glow then it blows up

we did that to a ceiling fan at work but it wouldent die

@ControlledExplosions 240V works fine with 220V machines, or even 230V... We got here 240V and It doesn't harm machines that runs on 220V

Haha! Did you hook that to a dryer hookup or did you run 2 AC cords to the motor?
