I use a 14g sump for my 29g DT.

You're not really using less power anyway. Sure, 220v devices draw half as much current, but that is per each "hot" conductor. A 220v circuit uses two "hots", so you're still drawing the same amount of(total) current. The real advantage of 220v circuits is allowing smaller size conductors to...

Is this a poll or a bash Republicans thread?
