I would like to mount a step down converter on my lathe to run a machine mounted lamp. The main reason is to clean up the number of cords around the machine and not have to run another 120 volt circuit (I really do not want to open the wall up and have to re-sheet it).
I think I can pull from the main power lead for the lathe by splitting in a junction box. circuit for 240 to lathe is 30 amp circuit. Machine mounted lamp is wired 120 and uses a 100watt incandescant bulb.
Can anyone offer some advice on this?
