Re: CIM Voltage and Motor Suggestions

With some further info from jakep, this isn't necessarily a continuous use application. Atleast, it won't be operating at max power for more than a few seconds. It would hit peak power and past for a bit and then level off and operate somewhere below that. So it might not destroy itself too quickly. Perforating both endcaps and using a muffin fan might be enough to handle the extra heat. Certainly it's a cheaper easier option than the re-engineering and building that'd be necessary to use those dewalts. Though the dewalts would work exceptionally at this and I'd be highly amused to see a pair of hammerdrills in this application.
