Yes, the centrifugal switch will be the next thing I investigate.
All the other variables.. voltage, wire size, distance, etc. I already planned for and did right the first time. For the record, the motor is getting 242v out of the power supply, so I know it doesn't have anyting to do with the power supplied to it. Don't know why a centrifugal switch didn't occur to me sooner. But then that's the value of this forum.. great sounding board when my thinking is muddled or immovably stuck in some rut.
