Hi All

i think that whoever wrote

'If a coil uses 1000 Watts and runs for 10 minutes total. You have used as
much as a 100 Watt light bulb in one hour, and that is it.'

should perhaps check their aritmetic...

1000*(1/6) = .166 kilowatt-hours

         100*1 =.100     kilowatt-hours

    ironically you violate the law of the conservation of energy in a post
that is on a topic that is likely to result in laws being made to conserve
energy!
