I removed the cooling unit from my Vendo 110. It's a model VT-1D. However, on the ID plate, the only data I cannot read is (naturally) the hp rating. I might say 1/2 hp, but that seems high. Does anyone have one to compare? It's a pancake compressor. Could it be 1/12? Thanks!

***Got home and checked, it's a 1/4 horse unit.

Sent you a PM. However, in case you see this first... I went to the store today before I received your message. The store has to order the stuff from one of their other locations. So, I will go back there next Thursday/Friday to pick up my stuff and then order yours. I would be able to pick yours up the week of the 18th if that works for you. Not a problem mate! |
