Is it worth spending the extra $17 to get a 220 volt Ideal heated siping knife vs the 110 volt one?

110 volt: $83
220 volt: $100


I'm looking to sipe my HMMWV tires; found out this morning new HMMWV tires and icy roads don't do well AT ALL. :eek:


Suggestions encouraged/welcomed as well. :)
 
Sipes as in just literal cuts? Or are you trying to take a small groove out?

Those groovers suck, but might be ok for just Sipes.

I would see if your local les schwab has a siping machine, you'll be pulling your hail out by the end of the 2nd tire. :laughing:

But in the end, it's all probably a waste of time with those tires :flipoff2:

Interesting point (I don't know shit about electricity).


nOOB question:
Why would they sell/offer both? :confused:

Long story short; 220V/250W pulls half the current of a 110V/250W unit.

Other than that - as YAT mentioned, it all depends on what voltage you have available. A 110V unit would be mostly useless in Europistan
