You don't need to restrict the air in the outtake you need a filter on the intake side that's the best way to restrict air, and keep debris from flying at you.
I screwed a license plate to the side to restrict intake air on my garage fan. I sure hope the video producer got your comment (years ago), and did it the right way.
GREAT idea to use a sheet with a pattern on it to demonstrate this video! Mega-Pioints for re-cycling a working device, rather than having is a working blower/motor being crushed down into raw materials by their weight. Bravo sir! #Winning !
You failed to explain the 220 to 110v motor wiring. No mention whatsoever! Did you tied together both legs to one side of the 110 and grounded the other wire to the other leg?
I appreciate your video and thank you for making it. I'm really anxious to see all the superior videos from all of these super experts that have seen fit to criticize your efforts. I learned from your video. I have a blower fan in my shop that isn't restricted and shuts off after a few minutes. I think that restricting the airflow may fix it. Thanks for the info. Nice paint job.
Lmao... this cat is off like a mthfuqer! All that shit,, & .. wait now sida cans! Lol.. this is entertaining bc I'm high... but hes probably done got his shirt sucked in by now & all fuqed up playing with a fan thats "pretty good at blowing paper" homie said lol.. ah shit... so all this,,, just to say yep, it works on 120v... sidetracked like a bitch...
Yes it can. But sooner than later the motor will fail due to overheating. I love your ingenuity, but please allow me these two constructive criticisms: 1.) You should brush-up on your knowledge of electricity before recommending things like this to others. Here is a good link that will explain what and why will ACTUALLY happen in your above-scenario: www.eevblog.com/forum/beginners/can-a-240-volt-motor-be-run-from-120-volt-power/ 2.) Just a slight bit of standardization would make your wiring diagrams a joy to look at. Currently they are somewhat painful. EZ tip: In wiring-diagrams, ALL lines are drawn N/S or E/W, with 90-degree turns only. No wires are drawn at any other angle. No 45's. Also, there is no need to show wire-nuts...they just clutter up the diagram. Sort that out and you'll be tight!
1: can I run a 230 volt garage fan motor on 120 volts? 2: it looks like your motor does not have that much torque because of lower voltage. I think mine will do the same.
THIS. And, not to mention when they do the 15 second "here's my channel intro" shit (though not on this one). 10 minutes to basically say, yes, it works.
I have a 110 v sanding floor machine that I wish to convert to run on both 1110 and 240 do you know where I could find instructions to do this, please?
this guy is so unhelpful there is no knowledge XFER here does he think we want to see him turn the OFF ON switch? NO BCUZ I want to see how to REWIRE my blower motor to run on 120V
Lmao, these half assed fully baked videos are infuriating when you search for a quick reference on a DIY. They're hilarious when you're just killing time... My only question is... Are they still blazed when they upload? Recording is one thing but what was it that made you think after editing this that it's ready to be shared with the world?
I wired it the same as if it was back in the air handler. White to white and the black, red and blue wire to the black incoming hot wire. Only use one of the color hot wires coming from the motor to wire it to the incoming hot line using a power cord.
That is correct. The colored wires are just for the speed of the motor to run at. Red is the low speed blue is the medium speed and the black wire is the high speed.
Ok I got a new one today and it had brown and yellow wire going to capacitor and a red, green, and black wire comeing out of motor as well. I have tried green to green black to black and red to white on a power cord and when I plug it in the gfci receptical just trips, I have tried swapping the black and red wires around and it does the same . Any ideas?
Looks like you have a 120vac motor, 2 speed, not a 240 vac motor. You need to show us the label on the motor. This motor runs the house air wheel,. The 240 v motors use the blade outside in the condenser unit. Most furnace units do not have 240v available.
Do you even know what you are talking about? The blowers in electric furnaces (like this one) run on 240 and not 120. The blowers in gas furnaces run on 120 and not 240. Get it straight. I am not trying to be rude or anything, just giving you information.
Making the outlet smaller doesn’t make it spin any faster, it just increases the wind speed similar to what a nozzle does to the end of a fire hose when you start to close it, makes the outlet smaller thus increase the pressure, it does not increase the water supply.
WOW it can blow over three empty can, amazing!
Why didn't you show how you wired it up?
I really need to know how you wired it.

Never stick you finger in there. Wow, thank you for that. Never knew.
An non smart person watching this will try that lmao

FYI for high speed just use white to white and black to black cap off red and blue they are for slow and medium
dude is flying high .. lol
derp
Higher than giraffe pussy. Lol

Thanks for letting us know not to stick our fingers into the fan. Lots of talk.
Can you do a video on how to actually wire this up? Thanks
I put a wiring diagram together in a PDF document.

It pulls more amps but it will run with the appropriate capacitor.
Good info but camera movement made me sea sick!
1: can I run a 230 volt garage fan motor on 120 volts? 2: it looks like your motor does not have that much torque because of lower voltage. I think mine will do the same.
Wait.. How is that SecondSwitch a Threeway Switch?
Both original and replacement run capacitor are same 12.5 MFD 440/370 VAC but new replaced blower motor has 7.5 MFD listed . Still good ?
It a two speed motor with hi and low not 220. Notice white common wire.
220 motors have a white common wire
Why can't people just get to the point. Nobody cares where you bought the switch and blah blah blah blah blah

Hi
You saying that 220v blower motor can run on 120v ?
Why can't you show HOW to transfer a 220 to 110..that's what I was look for...
That's not what this video is about..
try to make the opening at the very top instead of the middle and see what happens to the air draft
This isn't a 240 volt motor
this guy is so unhelpful there is no knowledge XFER here
does he think we want to see him turn the OFF ON switch?
NO BCUZ I want to see how to REWIRE my blower motor to run on 120V

Video by Jack Russell.
Neat
Where do you get this these fans from? What is it used for?
Air conditioner air handler
Looks same as a furnace blower. Reach out to furnace install company they probably just throw out old ones
?? Waiting for 220v to 120v wiring ??
His outlet puts out 120 the blower motor is rated for 220 but can run on any voltage its running at half speed since it's half the voltage
no it will pull twice the current and run at the same speed
he has it sitting on a GLASS TABLE???
Where did u get dat? All I find are 115v blowers on ebay...
Did you wire it the same and it runs on 120 or did u wire it a special way
I wired it the same as if it was back in the air handler. White to white and the black, red and blue wire to the black incoming hot wire. Only use one of the color hot wires coming from the motor to wire it to the incoming hot line using a power cord.
Ok so 1 of the 3 hots wired in and the other 2 just capped off?
That is correct. The colored wires are just for the speed of the motor to run at. Red is the low speed blue is the medium speed and the black wire is the high speed.
Ok I got a new one today and it had brown and yellow wire going to capacitor and a red, green, and black wire comeing out of motor as well.

What is the brand name and model of the motor by itself.
camera paining is very bad.

Actually...
LOL no 240 will not run on 120.
explain
Not a 220v motor
Yes it is
@@r1ckastl3y86 what makes you think it is a 220 or 240?
@@MC-hs4mf I have looked at a similar blower before and from learning about it
@@r1ckastl3y86 Are some 120 and some 240??
@@MC-hs4mf Yep.
Lmao..look how hard it blows a sheet and empty cans and news paper omg bro..i would like to see a CFM test compare 120 to 240.
Poor videography and unnecessary commentary focus on the pertinent data and processe
Making the outlet smaller doesn’t make it spin any faster, it just increases the wind speed similar to what a nozzle does to the end of a fire hose when you start to close it, makes the outlet smaller thus increase the pressure, it does not increase the water supply.
I'm sorry but last comment was wrong cuz I just finished making mine and restrict the discharge does make the fan speed up
Robert Kendziora you put an rpm meter on that shaft or blade? Or does it sound like it’s getting faster?
