The same results can be expected from 110 or 220 units. Some even use the same motor that is jumpered to run on either voltage. 220 is not an overkill, but as Deb said, it will draw 1/2 the current, thus will not get the loss of voltage in the cable(voltage drop). Current is what causes voltage drop. Gator, if you are not within the 100ft, I can let you know what size cable you will need to run.
