understood.
Also , the motor i checked, was in parallel with the coil.
The coil i have completely removed from the hairdryer mica sheet, now wrapped on a peice of cardboard ready to go when i need it.
Another thing. it isnt a 300% power output increase, its still 1000 or therabouts, watts of power. the fan blows so hard on the coil that it never gets that high. but if the fan were off and the coil heated up, without that regulation it would surely set the hairdryer on fire.
it seems that things like these arent as simple to explain (on your end), as i thought. ill look at the local tip shot for a popcorn machine and ill open it up and compare with the hairdryer parts.
