[Clayart] 208V single-phase

[James Miner]

I had this question many years ago in the same circumstances, and I was
told by the kiln company (Paragon? Been so long I am unsure) that the 208
elements would work just fine until they burned out somewhat prematurely,
at which time you would buy 220 elements.  I'd want to confirm that with
someone who actually knows, but that was my understanding.
