Remember the yanks have pink fluffy girly 110v electricity. They've only just been told about kettles and they think a microwave is a cooking device

[–] Petter1@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago

Yea, but normally you can draw about 15 amps compared to the 10 amps typically allowed un EU. 110v x 15A = more then 1.5kW which should totally be enough to charge over night (maybe blug it in every night)

I just learned that you can steam broccoli in the microwave and it's such a time saver!
