What would the variable speed be used for? Is it important enough that the standard high, low and pulse is not enough? Is it worth the additional cost

Depends if your going to do nut butters. I think just blending ice and smoothies you would be fine with the other one. Its a great blender

The variable speed gives you the range much like the multiple settings on a typical blender (Stir, Chop, Mix, Puree, Liquefy). You can also start out slowly and then turn it up as you go along to ultimately emulsify the contents. It works great for smoothies, which is mainly why I bought it. I like it, but it would be a personal preference thing, depending upon how you plan to use it. It definitely gives you more versatility.

Variable speed, no, but I wired mine to a standard wall switch, 1 switch turns it on, and "On" on the other switch is "High" and "Off" is "Low" speed, not sure about you guys, but mine went in a large metal building 10 feet off the ground, a pull string wasn't going to cut it.

it is advertised as 50 RPM. I would not think it is a variable speed but you may be able to find one that they make in the RPM you need

My wife actually used the thing. She recalls that there were at least 8 different modes that were adjusted with a "soft touch" button. The result was a varied pulse in speed and intensity. Hope that helps.

There is no variable speed, but you could get a speed controler here that could be used for a variety of other tools as well. SE Electronic Stepless Speed Controller I thought that it was a pretty decent die grinder for the price. Not much can go wrong with them except brushes which an extra set does come with the tool.

Not sure....I don't like using variable on fan motors...it tends to give them a short life span....the two speeds are adequate, however I always have it set to high speed.

As the variable speed button is right on top of the 788, I have not seen a need to use a variable foot switch. I do have a foot switch that is a simple on and off pedal which I also don't use for this saw. If you can't find what your looking for here, Harbor Freight sells both types of foot pedals for around $20 each.

These types of devices are a terrible kluge. The only way to properly control the speed of a motor is to use a variable transformer. What you want is the Variac 3 amp made in china. http://www.amazon.com/Variac-Variable-Transformer-300va-Output/dp/B006NGI8VS I have two of the 3 amp Variacs, and I also have two of those crap VenTech units just like the one you are asking about. The Variacs allow for much slower fan speeds; but most important is the fact that your cheap kluge outputs a square wave which wastes energy, stresses the motor, and actually causes a significant amount of noise to emanate from the fan itself -- the result of short pulses of square wave forms beating on the motor.

Yes. One colour could be set to pulse. Speeds go from slow to what reviewers have called seizure mode.

no, there is no controllable variable speed. however you can lightly squeeze the trigger switch to gain uncontrollable variable speed

It is full variable speed in each of the two speed levels. The switch on top of the unit just allows you to pick a slower or faster range of speeds.

For my installation I also ordered the Polaris Iq900-Rs Aqualink Upgrade Kit too so I could have full variable speed programming control. I replaced a 10 year old Aqualink and Jandy Stealth 2.0HP pump so I could cut my electricity bill. In my case, dropping the pump speed from the fixed 3750rpm to the variable speed 1750rpm (~one half) dropped the pump power from 2.1kW to 200W. I ended up bumping up the speed setting to get the chlorine generator to work efficiently. Changing the Aqualink controller gave me a lot of flexibility in the power vs flow programming that I wouldn't have had -- I recommend that you change out the controller too. The controller switch took about 2-3 hours. The pump swap took considerably longer because the old Jandy Stealth Pump connections were not the same as the new ones. I had to order a new valve and connectors. All that being said, a friend of mine (different controller and different pump) used some kind of relay system that gave him primitive 3-speed control. IMHO, spending the extra ~$600 to get variable speed and wifi control was worth it. In my case running the pool filter system was 1/3rd of my electricity bill -- changing to flexible variable speed programming saves a ton of money each month that offsets the cost of the controller upgrade.

That's what I'm using it for. I have SVT. it has color peak rate settings you can adjust via the app.

Yes, the speed is variable based on the amount that you squeeze the trigger. It can be used as a screw driver you just need to put in a screw head (it comes with one). The best thing to do is use the torque adjustment when using it as a screwdriver so you don't over tighten and/or strip your screws.

I have another monitor that came with interchangeable cuffs. The cuffs from it work on iHealth so I believe you can do that. This is the future and a very good system. I wish my Group Health on-line message system would handle email from the system. it sends in out in text and cvc format that can be graphed. I have afib that needs motoring. It is intermittent and the drugs I use bring my pulse down to 40-50. I tolerate it but have cramps in my legs at times.

The slow is really more for the person testing the cable. When using the Slow Automatic mode (S position) to perform the test, the user has more time to watch the light sequence and ensure that the same LEDs illuminate on the Master and Remote simultaneously. Other than allowing an extra moment to view the results, there is no advantage to the S mode. Hope this helps

Since I don't know what you want to use it for, I can't really answer the question properly. I will tell you that I was having an issue with my satellite receiver not getting enough air movement in the cabinet I have it in. One of the techs told it was probably a bit too warm in there. I set this up in the cabinet and it seems to have resolved the issue. I liked the variable speed to it because I could run it faster in the summer and move more air, and dial it down in the winter a bit. Only downside is that it's a bit noisy at the higher speed, but I'm not aware of a more efficient way to move air in a small area. Hope that helps. Ray
