Standard is for US buildings to be supplied with 240v center-tapped (single-family), 208Y120 3-phase (light commercial/multifamily), or 480Y277 3-phase (large commercial, light industrial).
120V is never supplied on its own.

Most 240V appliances work fine down to around 200V since they’ll often be used with nominal 208Y120 power after voltage drop.
Are you sure you have 240/120V split phase service and not 2 legs of 208Y120?
If so, I’d contact an electrician or the utility company - sounds like the problem is upstream

The whole thing is a lie. My conventionally attractive hetero wife wanted a hybrid Toyota minivan over a Tahoe. It hauls ass, AC traction motors provide instant torque from a stop and the engine fires up while spinning - zero lag. 100% smooth acceleration. Priuses surely work exactly the same way.
Conservatives need to be reminded that these are the kind of lies that manipulated them into giving total control of the US government to pedophile “elites”.

Same crowd as last time is already trying to discourage and divide the left. Like it’s their job or something.

isn’t quokk.au the all anti-US instance?

They’re likely right.
Midterms are going to hit the Republicans hard, they barely have a majority as it stands.
A++++++++++++++!
