So, after reading heaps, I figure I need about 4,500 watts at 240V to make my kettle boil in a reasonable time.
Any sparkies out there got a suggestion of how I can suck this power out of the house into one heating element without expensive rewiring?
For example, is there usually a higher rated circuit that I could tap into, like the hot water?
Help me before I kill myself trying to find out.
My only other thought is to put two holes and two 2,200 Watt elements into the kettle, and plug each into a different house circuit - but two seems like a bit of a PITA.
Cheers.
