Noo 240V superiority! 120V electric kettles suck.
- But the outlets look funny.
  
  Maybe I need to self-crit my electronic chauvinism.
  
  The South African and Indian 240V outlets don't look too bad compared to the European monstrosities lol
I'll step up to 240V
- Our European comrades appreciate it.
I am once again reminding people that the US also has a 240V electric grid, it just comes in from the street split into two 120V mains.

Edit: Our plugs are fucking terrible though. Literal goddamn deathtraps.
ur making me want to play Workers & Resources Soviet Republic

i swear the crunchy power grid design with voltage step-down is the best part of that game
This reminds me of the latest styropyro video, where he builds the macrowave (a really powerful microwave) and he's like: "I bought this cute distribution transformer that will be perfect for the job"
- Did he really use one of these big bois?
  
  Yes lmao. It appears at around 5 min
Goodpost
