The only thing I can come up with because I am no professional is that you have
a single phase 220 volt power source to the home and that is two 110 volt circuits.
The one circuit of the two is has small voltage different than the other.
It might mean the solid state voltage threshold of your appliance doesn't accept or work as designed because the voltage of circuit #1 isn't within the tolerance.

Without knowing your internal house wiring 110 volt circuit distribution between the two 110
volt circuits that make up your load center, I would begin plugging it in in different rooms and maybe the other 110 volt circuit will accept the gizmo you are having trouble with.
