One thing I learned years ago was that by converting my coffeepot from a glass carafe to a thermos, I saved on average of 1-2 KW per day. I would leave the pot on for a few hours per day @1KW/hour. Now It just takes the 10 minutes to brew the pot and the thermos keeps it hot most of the day.
10 minutes to brew the pot? Is this using an electric stove top w disce shaped elements or the coil type? It surely isn't gas top as that boils quickly? Genuinely interested to know
While power and energy are often used interchangeably, the narrator's definition of energy is technically wrong. Energy is "the capacity or ability to do work". Energy is what is available, like water in a barrel. It is just sitting there waiting to be used. Power is the rate of Energy over time, P=E/t, like water flowing froma barrel. If we have 1000 Joules (1 KW) of energy used in 1 second then we have 1000 W/s rate. If we use 1000 Joules (1 KW) over 100 s, then we have 10W/s rate. Power companies charge by the KW/ hr rate. If a 1000 sq ft house uses 30 KW per day then 30,000/ 24 = 1250 W/ hr average. I hope this clears up any basic misconception or confusion.
You forgot to include how much energy an EV consume per charge when being recharged overnight. It is the most energy intensive electrical device for most households that own EVs.
Washing machines that used to take 40 minutes to wash clothes CLEAN now take 1 hour and 30+ minutes and they are NOT CLEAN because there isn't enough water in them. Totally garbage appliances.
This video is here to solve the problems of two or more families connected to a single electric Meter. One of the families consumed greater than the other. Any listeners to this video will take the cheats out of compoud consumption. A solution to keep at hand, thank you.
It's easy and convenient to curb phantom loads (anything with a bright light or display on when not operating) by plugging them into a switchable power strip.
Be careful about eco bullshit. Lower power vacuum cleaners have smaller suction heads. This means its going to take 3 times longer to vacuum a room than a fully rated vacuum cleaner. Best tips I can give. Have enough clothes to last a month. Wash everything on the same day in a couple of washes. Same with bedclothes. Have enough plates and cutlery to last 2 weeks. Wash everything in one wash and rinse. Use cold water to wash the car. Only put an applience on when you need it. On standby appliances still draw substantial energy. Cook enough food in one day to last a couple of weeks and freeze it. Taking cooked food from the freezer, leave it to thaw naturally before re-heating. Taking a bath. Wash you and the kids in the same water. If you do need warm water to wash the car save a bucket from the bath. If you live in a colder climate and dont sweat take a shower or bath every other day. If you meed to air a room by opening the windows make sure the heating is off and the door to that room is closed.
Who cares how much Watt a device uses? You don’t pay for Watts. You pay for kWh. A toaster in the red category? How long is that toaster used? 5 or 10 minutes? Per day? You need to look at kWh usage per year per device. That is what you will need to pay for (unless you generate your own energy)

I do not enjoy AI taking far too long to get to the point. Who knew that AI could be both inaccurate and verbose about it.

Thanks! Very informative !

And they break in less than 5 years. And fill the land fills.
Might be good info, cant tell as the AI narrator is just not a good touch. Would rather have a human with an accent.

The information is described very clearly. Easy to understand.
Thanks 👍
You left out the most used electrical appliance in a home, the electric range cooker.
You mean an OVEN ?
You mean an oven?
I gave up after a minute
Phantom loads are the biggest costs in the electric bill.
Boogymen, ghosts, phantoms..here we go again, lol 😅 jk
Standing charge rates are....
Bought a Kill-a-Watt years ago. I know the power useage of every electric using item on my property.
P.S.: This AI is awful.
informative
