Help with hoist motor electrical

Good day,

I have 2 Stage Maker SR01 1/4 ton Motors, no controller or pickle yet, had some questions about power.


The label on the hoist reads 208V and then 115v 60hz 3 phase.
I would like to know if I can use this motor off of a normal outlet supplying 115v if I made my turnarounds for the L16 from a 20amp outlet If I bought a pickle?

If I have to use a distro from company switch, what kind of cheap controller can I get that will take the cam locks and spit out power from L14 twist lock?
 
Short version, NO.

Long version.
They are three phase hoist with 115v 60hz between hot and ground. so you can't run them off a wall outlet.
My recommendations for power distribution are Motion Labs, Applied Electronics, and Skojenberg Controls. None will be "cheap". But they will be the right thing and safe. You can do just a PD with no control and use pickles for each hoist to save some on budget, but the concession is easy of use and maintaining coordinated hoist movement.
