*SAD FACE* Those awesome "Will it Blend?" videos are BS. I'll show you why.
In the follow up to the teardown we re-assemble and test the blendtec. It is rated at 3hp; it puts out 1.7hp MAX. It's rated for 28,000 RPM, but it only spins at 18,500.

I refuse to do corpo shill product reviews. Instead, we get to see the unvarnished insides of tools and gadgets because of you guys that chuck a few coins in the hat. THANK YOU!

isn't quarts toxic?
The problem is you are using a wimpy 120v power that is limited to 1800w instead of the 230v we get in the UK.
230v x 13 amps give you 3000w of power you can get from a plug.
3200 divided by 746 gives you 4 horse power you can get out of the power plug.
That blender is been limited by your power you can get through the wall.
That blender is made to be used for industrial application. I don't see a problem of just using more power to the motor. also industrial machines use 230w because they need a lot of power, some use 3 phase as well.
What if you were (in a good country haha) and were putting 240V in, possible to acheive 3hp then?
40 years of electronics technician. Semiconductor tool repair, oilfield equipment repair Great job no one wants to do
Without tripping the breaker
im an expert !
Never knew they made 3 phase blenders 😂
You stall that thing dead I’m sure it’ll draw 3kw… for a few hundred milliseconds at least until your breaker bops it off
HEY BAWS!
So is this pretty much an upside down router in a new case with a pitcher attached to it?
"watch me blend this rock"
I did injection molding for a quite a few years. The weld lines are normal. A hotter die would help you out. The moisture is causing that splay you seen most varieties of plastic require drying. They have hot desiccated air blowing through the hopper at a recommended temperature for the recommended period of time. The time and temp depend on the plastic. ABS is usually 4 hours at 180F. Delrin is 2 hours at 180F. Polycarb is 250 for 4-8 hours. PEI is 300 for 4-8 hours. That nylon zytel 30g33 is 4-8 hours at 180F. Nylon Zytel 101L just won't dry, is if the bag lost its seal in transport, send it back.
It brings its worth in tough times. Instead of eating tree roots during the apocalypse, you can male a tree root smoothy
the fact that the first words of the video were not "will it blend?, that is the question" was extremely disappointing
so while it's running hard (with rocks and water in it), your meter says 118.5V, and goes upto 15.6A. That's 1848.6W. That's 2.475 HP.
