Do you know how long you can run this without the motor overheating?

We usually grind continuous for 60 minutes and we have not experienced any overheating.
1480664
Once it was running for 3 hours without any problem (I felt little bit heat though)
1480665
I used it for about an hour continuously to grind 1 lb of split bean with water. It doesn't overheat so far.

Never had any overheating problems but again it is for grinding idli or dosa batter

One hour for sure, we regularly use this to grind rice and other cereals. Usually the stuff runs for 1 hr. It has never heated up. I would say it should run 1-2 hrs with ordinary load and easy to grind items. May not fit for commercial needs though.

The instructions say not to run it for more than 15 min at a time. If you let it sit for 5 min between each use I think you would b fine it is a great system the solution it comes with is not that great. Spend the money and get good solution we bout a gal on amazon for $100 and it is a big difference

i have had good results so far, keep the motor away from the heat, approx 3 inches or more.

I run it consecutively 4-5 times with only a slight pause inbetween, and I've never had it overheat. I've owned it for over 2 years now and it still runs fine.

I feel the motor is pretty loud but I have it right next to my house. As far as how long does it run. I'm using it as a back up to charge my solar system. I run it about 2 to 3 hours a day and it lasts about a week.

I was thinking to do the same thing but I haven't done it yet. You can try and if you feel that it suffers and start overheating that it s not good to continue because it may burned out.

Yes, it is right but be careful. run 30 seconds at a time. we burned the motor working a heavy batch of wet ingredients.

It says, "The intended continuous operating time is 20 minutes." It also says that it is for commercial use only...whatever that means. We have used it a few times now to shave down our goldendoodle and we have not had any problems with it overheating.

Yes you can. I have been running speed pack 1400 mah 11.1 v for a year. No problems with burning motor out.

No. You can not run it with air temperatures over 140 degrees either or the motor will burn up.

No, The pump motor gets hot if you uses it several times in a row. It would overheat after a few minutes.

Sorry. I checked the manual but there was no max time listed. It explains what to do in case it over heats but doesn't indicate how long before it happens.

Yes that is true. They do "overheat" but since this is not a mechanical version it takes longer. believe the limit is two hours. Why you'd have it on for that long, I think you're safe.

I ran mine 24/7 for over a year. It never overheated and never had any other problems. Of course, I removed it from the window when it was storming to prevent it from getting wet.

I've run mine for over 2 hours but never until the battery ran out. I hope that helps.

The component that shuts off power below temp is inline on one cable, you can unplug it and get continuous power, but i dont know if the motor was designed to run continuously.

I don't remember it being hot. I would only worry if it was hot by the motor or plug. I have 2, been using for years without a problem.
