  • I’m pretty sure both of those devices are intended to be the sole device on a circuit. It’s the only way you can get enough power for them.

    The instructions should note this, but who reads those? Haha

    I run into this in my kitchen (which was built before code required microwave on its own circuit).

    I can run either the espresso machine (1100w) or the toaster oven (300w) and microwave (1000w) simultaneously. If I forget and run all 3 it will blow the breaker.

    Fortunately my morning routine is coffee first, then use the toaster oven, then microwave. I only found out they were all on the same circuit by changing my routine.

    Neat the kill-a-watt caught this for you.




  • Is there a Chines phone that is as small as a Pixel 5 (or smaller?), with decent hardware/ram?

    I don’t even need a great processor, just good enough. I don’t play games (other than things like Solitaire or Backgammon), but I multi-task like mad, so ram is more important than anything.

    I’ve been looking at one of the Unihertz Jelly phones. I’m a bit concerned about the mediatek, but they’re well priced so it’ s not a bad gamble.
