They probably would work great, except these two electric motion bases are
completed, and where already halfway built when I was brought onto the
project. At which point I opened my big mouth and asked "but how do they
handle the questionable power in Brazil?"

And he who asks, gets to figure it out.

If this first project works out, it's supposedly going to be repeated in
nine more locations. We'll be applying the lessons learned here....
