Hey guys,
I have a Dremel 100 which is a single speed rotary tool. I would like to be able to control it's speed because it's not always best to use it on full blast.
I've read one thread over at the EEVblog forums that one person said that the Dremel rotary tools use a universal motor and can be controlled using a light dimmer you can get from the hardware store.
I did try to contact dremel if this tool has a universal motor but they haven't yet responded.
That person from the other forum has a pretty high post count so I think he know what he was talking about.
So what do you guys think? Given that this tool is equped with a universal motor, can I use a light dimmer to control its speed?
