This was great! And I now learned that our German kettle runs with 2.2 kW for some reason.

Now you just need an European arc welder which plugs into a Schuko socket that works at 3.6 kW :)

After clicking on the video I was briefly confused because this isn’t a Colin Furze video. Well done!

Love it but have you seen "10 Second Kettle" on the Photonicinduction channel?

As a brit, I had a seriously good laugh at that. Most entertaining 👍

Battery technology has gotten so much better and cheaper that I wonder if it's not starting to be feasible to have appliances like this with a builtin small battery that will be able to boil water much faster when needed, then slowly recharge when it's done.

Could have higher-power IH heaters and ovens as well, perhaps.

I feel like the big first step towards getting water to boil faster is to just boil what you need at the time. If one is making just one cup of tea, then boiling 500 mL would be enough and it would be done sooner than 1 L.

My 2200W kettle is marked in litres, none of that 'breakfast cup' nonsense.

@Technology Connections Thank you, it was very informative, if only just because of the new imperial unit I’ll be able to rage against!

for future reference, Bombay Electronics in Chicago has 220v appliances for sale in the US.

I do not yet understand how Alec gets 6 kW. Can someperson explain?
Using a USA 120 V kettle on a 240 V socket doubles the Watt. So 1,5 kW to 3 kW. Where do the other 3 kW come from?

@txt.file
W = V × I
I = V / R

so

W = V × V / R

R is the resistance of the heating element, wich is constant.
Double V, quadruple W

W = 2×V × 2×V / R

oh, I claim insurance companies are going to love it.

On an entirely unrelated note, what is the maximum power output of your car’s battery?
