[HAM] Hammond/leslie operating voltage

Hey gents,

Is there any danger in operating a Hammond and Leslie (solid state in
this case) at a slightly hot or cold mains voltages?

On some days there's a big drop in the mains voltage in my studio (can
get down to ~105VAC or so). At that point I can either use it as is or
bump it up to ~128VAC (transformer based AVR). Is there any effect at
operating at either of these extremes (could higher/lower tube biases
change the sound?)

Thanks in advance,

Andy
