@michiexile I've speculated that myself actually, but couldn't think of a good engineering explanation.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@antifuchs@michiexile Ah! Lowering element resistance to match power as voltage is lowered increases power loss in cable a *lot*.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@sigfpe@antifuchs@michiexile so should we all have electric kettles wired permanently into a 220V connection, like ovens?2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes

@antifuchs I sorta have that - a realtime hot water heater than runs off a 500lb propane tank. Not sure if I can turn it up to 100C though.
