Hello Aillio Fam,
My question is regarding the true electrical sensitivity and risk involved with plugging an R2 into a circuit that is not dedicated.
I was initially very nervous about using my R2 in a setting where I was unsure about the circuit usage and electrical layout. So far I have had no known issues with power supply. I’ve used it in 2 different outlets that both appeared to be shared with other appliances. When the machine boots up I check that I have the 110v ok on the display, and I haven’t had any obvious signs of power issues. The only potential issue I’ve noticed is that P10 will often revert back to P9 but it looks more like a firmware issue to me. Perhaps someone can confirm if that is truly a power supply issue?
Anyways I am asking these questions because I want to relocate the roaster to a location that I am pretty sure does not have a dedicated circuit available. Do I run a serious risk of damaging the machine by trying it out on a new circuit?
I assume it will be obvious if it is underpowered, but I’m also facing the strong chance of voltage fluctuations. If it’s helpful at all for context, I am in Central America and my unit is 110v. I was initially expecting to use the unit in the U.S. and now I wish I had the 220v version, because I believe that it is more reliable in this region as far as consistent voltage delivery.
Thanks for any perspective!
