Electrical - Buck boosters - tanTALK

I'm new to the business and was hoping someone would be able to tell me what the effect would be on beds that were designed for 230 vac but had been run at 242 vac w/o the use of buck boosters to lower to voltage?

will run stronger, and burn out the lamps faster. That's minimum and if you have a good bed. If the bed is made from the cheapest parts it'll just go into meltdown.

when the bed overheats the electrical wiring will over heat as well, possible electrical short between bed and breaker box...FIRE?

they are right! You need the Buck Boosters. They are not that expensive, they only run $300.00. Better to have one and not have to change the lamps more and ruin your beds!
