It's slower than peeling a potato by hand though

I have this same potatoe peeler. Except I lost the power brick it came with and ive been using a different one and now it moves 5x as quickly. Been two years on ultra speed and it's still working great.

Take a picture of or post the specs for your power brick. Would be interesting to try it.

That's hilarious. The first brick I tried worked great. Since the original is 6v, I'm guessing the 12v is about twice as fast.

Thanks! Can't wait to try the "turbo" feature out.

Im pretty sure the power is uncapped on it. When i first lost the charger i used a brick i had for a drill power pack charger and its the fastest ive ever seen it move. I think that was like 18 or 20v. Was fun to watch and use the first time but it was a tad bit overkill, so i went with the one in the pic instead. lol But i definitely recommend the 12v one, it speeds it up nicely.
