It's either a 3-1/2 HP motor or it's a 15 amp motor, but running on a
120v circuit it's for durn sure not both. 3.5hp on 120v requires a
minimum of 22amps and that assumes a unity power factor and 100%
electromechanical efficiency. It's far more likely that the router
motor develops something closer to 1.5HP.

Jessem and/or Milwaukee is not alone in grossly over inflating the HP
in their advertising literature.


I gotta say, the weather man is never totally accurate either.


He is, in hindsight, which is a benefit the router manufacturers get to
take advantage of.
