You should have used 200% duty cycle
Splice on a second plug, so you can use two outlets at the same time.
(/s, mostly... this can actually work, if you can find two outlets on opposite phases.)
But it wouldn't be 200%, it would be something like 170% power assuming 3 phases, right. Too lazy to do the math.
US has two phase power in residential households
Split phase, not two phase.
Two-Phase has two legs, 90 degrees apart. When one phase is at maximum amplitude the other phase will be at zero.
Split Phase is 180 degrees apart. When one leg is at maximum positive amplitude, the other will be at maximum negative amplitude. When either is crossing zero, the other is also crossing zero, in the opposite direction.
