Just watched a video on how to control a treadmill motor with an SCR triac based speed controller and a bridge rectifier.

Will the 220v ones for the US market work OK?

Should I add an inductor to the treadmill motor lead? He suggested it in the vid. I'm just not sure on a source or Henry rating.

Here's the vid. Took quite a bit of reading to understand TRIAC's.... Just remember TRIAC controller means it gives you AC voltage out, it doesn't convert it to DC.
