Downside to Phase Perfect?
Seriously considering one of their 30hp units. Running a 20hp CNC lathe, and 2 5hp CNC mills (typically one at a time). Currently running the mills on a 10hp rotary from american rotary. Not having issues, but need a convertor for the lathe, and thinking go bigger than I need, but "cleaner" power to prevent any damage to the mills as well.
Really only downside Im coming up with is price. Which is quickly negated if I never have an issue with the machines! ANyone got any reaosn that this logic is silly, and I should just go with the right size rotary for the lathe?

Re: Downside to Phase Perfect?
Not sure I follow:
Change the spindle motors out to VFD? or just run the 3 phase motor on single phase, like a static converter?
If either of those, thinking cost, and headache, and doesnt get the lathe running
