How many amps is the motor rated? I can't find it on the spec. tag and the motor keeps blowing the 20 amp circuit breaker that we used on the old 1 1/2 hp. motor.

I'm not I haven't had any problems. I will look tomorrow and send you the information

not real sure what you are wanting to know but will give it a shot. It says on the fan motor 120V. Hope that's what you are wanting to know.

The amps drop from like 10 to 2.5!it's still going to be 1 1/2 hp,only at a slower speed (less gpm).80% of the time low speed is good.once in a while run it on high to mix water...shock,ect....

This is a 1/4 hp motor it does not have an amp rating on minehttp://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/electrical-motor-hp-amps-d_1455.htmlIt should be about 2-3 amps

You need to size the adapter for the current the motor draws to keep it from melting or catching fire. For 12 volt trolling motors it's about 1 amp for each foot pound of thrust. A 55 foot pound motor will draw about 55 amps at full speed. A 20 amp receptacle and plug can't stand that much current. Use the ring terminals supplied with the motor and attach directly to a deep cycle battery.

This motor uses not more than 3 amps normal operation at full speed. At start up it can draw up to 10 amps. I rec to use at leat 12 amps power supply for an on-off operation.

Aurelia, let me go check out the manual, which by the way, really does stink; I must admit the manual stinks. Lookit that: not only does it not mention the wattage range, there is no Underwriter's Laboratory information. Nor is there an information regarding the engine's power. I guess we would mark this up as a con. I do not see a switch on the machine from 110/120 to 220/240.

The conventional wisdom is three times the rated amperage, or in this case 45 amps. That's only momentary, but the motor starts each time you split a log and returns passively unpowered.

Hello Gail. It is a 500 watt motor and goes a steady 20 mph for me. I hope I have answered your question. Tony

late reply here: I was installing this as a trunk release in my car today and during a bench test I found that this motor pulled up to a max of 4.1 Amps when full extended or compressed (leaving it engaged for more than 2 seconds)

I have not used mine with motor running as of yet,I have it in a Rv and used breathing machine ( c-pap) and also had a 20" box fan running @ same time,when first turned on it said it had 12.68 volts,ran both all nite (7 hrs) and when I looked before shuting off it said 12.06 volts so it didn't draw to much.....I have a 200hp O/B and it only has a 35amp alt so they don't put out much amperage,,,,,,,

Says 1.7 amps on the sander data plate. Seems like the motor has a lot of power for that low of an amperage rating.

I just looked at the Motor Head. It says .8 Amps I hope That helps you. It has 4 settings regarding heat. 4 is the warmest but not hot at all.

most often these items are rated only in "amps" can you tell us the amp rating on your motor?DanCSH

I threw the unit out, so I can't verify the amperage rating. I was running a 38/4 hp swamp cooler with it and had no problems running the motor. It was the temperature settings that were the problem. You can probably find the amp rating at the LuxPro web site.

The max load ratings are as follows; 110-Volt; Up to 35-AmpAlso rated for 3 horsepower motors; 220-Volt; Up to 20-Amp. Most 5 HP motors draw 56 amps at 110v and 28 amps at 220v. You'd probably fry this switch with a 5 hp motor!
