I just put a piece of tape over the handle on my Fred Meyer hair-dryer so I didn't accidentally run it above low and it ran just like I had it on high but at 120V instead of 240V.Gizmohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03556169075856492902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2270124316233555550.post-71262997791317565842007-10-22T21:40:00.000-07:002007-10-22T21:40:00.000-07:00The hair-dryers are standard 120/240V travel hair-...The hair-dryers are standard 120/240V travel hair-dryers from Fred Meyer, the cheapest I could find. Apparently, I've heard from multiple sources that they run fine on DC voltage (100-180V range) when on the 120V setting. I didn't try the 240V setting, but I suspect it would run much cooler. Typically, these products are fairly simple in that they run two heater coils in parallel at 120V and in series at 240V.TimKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09059780797709299125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2270124316233555550.post-83421694693588180482007-10-22T19:16:00.000-07:002007-10-22T19:16:00.000-07:00Tim, are the hair dryers 12 volt?Tim, are the hair dryers 12 volt?onei57https://www.blogger.com/profile/04174611837994461555noreply@blogger.com
