Hi. The Dremel 300 sold in asia, if you look at the specifications in the manual only has 0.5A and runs at 220v. Does this have the same torque as the 1.15A that runs on 110v, it having more voltage (220v)? Or the torque of the Dremel 300 here in asia is significantly weaker because it uses 220v? If it is weaker, is there anything I can do to make it a 1.15A Dremel 300?

Thanks in advance.

Gbu,

I would say that the .5 Amps & 220V are comparable to the 1.15A 110V model the 220V would give it a big jump in power thus needing less amps. This is just my thoughts I am not an electrician but I have fooled around with it a bit.

According to "Ohm's Law":   I (amps)= V (volts)/R (ohms)  therefore to run the 220 volts machine you need half the Intensity (ohms) as for the 110 volts same one.   In this case, the little difference could be to compensate conductivity or heat produced by the double thickness of the wire used in 110 volts item.

In short all this formulation means what Doug explained to you in a more practical way.

Sorry folks, I just realize that I made a mistake in the above post: Please find the correct word in red which replaces my error.
