What is the actual power of this thing? Waring's website says 550 watt, whereas Amazon's site description say 390 watt. Is this the latest version?

Frosty, I no longer have my owner manual. I have the Waring Pro version and though I can't answer your watt inquiry I can tell you it is the only blender I will ever recommend. Though its size is small (i.e. soups & general food mixing) don't let its size fool you. This blender is the same one you see behind almost any bar in North America, (in fact its UL certificate states that it is intended for both Home and Commercial use). It whips up a fruit smoothie as easily as a blended to perfection margarita. You won't be disappointed.

The metal plate on our PBB25 says 120V and 3.0Amps. For watts, the conversion is "watts=amps x volts," so the wattage should be 360. But wattage increases as the load increases, and manufacturers want to put the most "optimistic" spin on things, so anything that says "peak watts" means "the wattage reached under the maximum possible load, i.e., just at the instant before the motor burns out."

No, it is not the new 10 watt version unfortunately. The new one can be found here www.microstru.com/Uncle-Milton.html I have not used the 10 watt version yet, but I plan on ordering it soon. This web site also has ALOT more discs that can be used with both this version & the 10 watt version. The only down side is that they are a bit more on the pricey side. I hope that answers your questions

Yeah, the math doesn't work out but looking at the Worx website, under Technical Specifications they list it as "Peak Power: 4HP" so I'm guessing they've got some measurement scheme where 1 HP != 745 watts.

The label on the unit says 500 watts. I've been mostly using it as a handmixer (beating egg whites for waffles, etc); I love it.

I put a video on here about this junk.... it's 30 watts. For some reason they removed the video

Good question. I assumed it was, but when I double checked, the small print says 1500W.

Philip M. Isidro says: I just got my package today and it says 260 Watt Max, but on Amazon it says 280 Watt Max. Pioneer states the TS-D1720C's are 260 Watt also... I know it's only a 20 Watt difference but.....false advertising? I AGREE, wtf Amazon? I Waited 2 MONTHS for mine to ship, even as a Paid Prime member. And then yesterday a box shows up and it is Clearkly marked "240 watts" I was PISSED OFF to say the least. 2 months ago I ordered all the other Pioneer stuff based on Pioneers "Stage 3" system. I had to search all over the place to Find a customer Service phone number and they have NO Clue at all, just to say they will send out another set, Another weekend GONE without being able to install my Stage 3 Pioneer system. After she(customer service) says she's sending me the Correct speakers and I hang up to WAIT all over again. I go to Pioneer USA and cannot find this speaker Amazon is advertising as 280watts at all. So I get on the phone with Pioneer, and Ask about the 280 watts set. THEY DON'T MAKE THEM IN 280 WATTS! I feel DECIEVED by Amazon and after having to Wait 2 whole Months to get them, to then have to call amazon to tell them they shipped me the Wrong speakers after Waiting 2 Months to get them. And they Still had NO CLUE, and are most likely sending me Another set of the 260 watt speakers since the "280 watts" DO NOT EXIST! I could have installed my stereo system 2 MONTHS AGO had Amazon advertised what they are selling CORRECTLY. I will most likely Drop my "Prime Membership" after this since you gotta Wait LONGER than the friggin Free Super Saver Shipping anyways.

Yeah but it sounds more like a 50w not 3000w... And it's very unreliable. Mine blew 5 min to into using it not a a gig! Get a crown, worth every penny

It's rated at 1875 watts, but I suggest you check out my review prior to your purchase. My review is the 1st one on the list (at least today, on Amazon), it's a 1 star review, my name is "Robert", and it's from 11/17/11. Most other reviews are favorable, it was simply my own experience....

I just got mine and it was 10.5w. I think originally it was 13w, but they have since improved it to be 10.5w to be competitive with others.And they have not updated the pictures, only the description.

I just looked at the bottom of my Bodum and it says 700 W. This sounds about right and is quite a few watts, but I have never had any problems with overload, of course I use it at work and they have capacity for this amount. If use on 120 V house current, will draw almost 6 amps. My Bodum works well. Hope this answers your questions...

It IS pretty darn weird that there is NO documentation on the unit's wattage ...online or in the manual. But I finally resorted to tipping mine back far enough to read the plate on the bottom, and it is says 1350W. I knew it had to be no more than 1500W or it couldn't be advertised for a standard household outlet. In any event, since you don't leave this unit turned on once you've made your coffee, it should affect your electric bill less than a standard drip coffee pot that stays on to keep the pot warm.

I've read that you should only use a converter for up to half the rated power output, so anything up to 150 watt would be OK. So, I'd suggest you get a more powerful converter, e.g. 500 W.

OK time for Class.... 1st it is rated at 500 watts. Here is Ohms law to help figure it out. P=ExI or P= I^2xR or P= E^2/R.... that said an owners manual for your product will most likely tell you how many Watts of Power your Equipment will Draw. i HAVE always went by a "Rule of Thumb" and run at around 3/4 of max power. 500 Watts would be MAX PEEK POWER so i take 500 x .75=375WATTS and it has served me well. Right now i run my Computer, a 32" flat screen TV and my external Hard Drive off the one i have. It has been in Continueous operation for almost 3 years now.

I have no clue. I have a 430W in mine and I don't have problems.. I can't see it taking that much.

My advice ...don t buy it, regardless of watts. Mine quit working properly after 3 weeks. I ordered a replacement...same thing happened after 2 weeks!
