The amperage (current) spec is likely independent of the voltage.  It
generally has to do with the current carrying capacity of the SCR or
contacts that pass the current to the load.  I suspect a working limit
would be 150W.

Looking up the current specifications knowledge database is left for
an interesting segue from the usual path.

Pensionerd.
