Does Orbital Buffer For Detailing Cars Plug Into Household 120v Outelt?
Published 09/24/2025
Question:
Will this work plugged into a regular household outlet, or do I need a heavier power supply?

Expert Reply:
Mark, the # PT37VR runs on standard 120V household power and draws about 0.92 amps, so any regular outlet is fine. Just avoid long, thin extension cords that don't meet the required power, since those can cause voltage drop and increased heat/resistance. If you’re working in a garage, a 12-gauge extension cord under 25 feet would be perfect.
What kind of workspace do you have - garage, driveway, or RV pad? This could even be setup on an off-grid layout if that's what you want to do. If so, I can hook you up with a setup like an inverter.
