IDM upgrade
I have an 110v IDM, and I would like to upgrade it to 140v.
Found the right resistance, and then someone said why not upgrade it to 220v, and all your troubles are gone forever.
I have never heard of 220v upgrades, anybody here who has heard about it?

I am a little behind on this. What exactly does this do? I have an extra IDM that I could do this to, if it is even worth it. I don't want any potential problems.

From what I'm told a little better snap on the throttle however I've not done it so will let others chime in. It's a easy mod to do if you know how to solder, if not then best to send it in and have it done.

I should probably clarify Byron, they can fail but not very often. I have a 140v in the Mule and its been there for six years. I keep a spare though. LOL I got lucky and found a old TV repair man who put my resistor in, or what ever you call it.

If you ever do the mod stick with the 140. It's a good cheap mod, I don't believe any one would gain the horse power that some have claimed.
