Question moved from Microwave Ovens category!
It all depends how cold you are .Start with low, turn it up if still cold.
When you turn them on from cold you can hear about 5 minutes of snap, crackle, pop until the oil comes up to temperature. After that this unit throws out a good amount of heat on the 900 watt and 1500 watt settings.
Most food cooking directions are based upon a 1100 watt microwave oven output.. Since you didnt specify, I am guessing you have a 700 watt oven You can roughly adapt cooking directions by multiplying times 1.6. So if directions say 6 1/2 minutes at 1100w, cook for 10 minutes 24 seconds, or 10.4.minutes [roughly] Here is a list of other oven powers 600. 1.8 times 700 1.6 times 800 1.4 times 900 1.2 times 1000 1.1 times
Of course, this is only a rough scale, microwave cooking times always vary from machine to machine. Always pay close attention when cooking.
Replacement trays cost around $30.00. The cheapest I found was on Ebay for $28.00. By the time you pay for shipping you can almost buy a new appliance. Also take care that you find one for your model, you can't always tell by looking if it is going to fit.
Try your local Goodwill or other thrift store for a used one.
Generally NO. But...it Depends on amp rating of timer, wattage of water heater, and line voltage. Look at label on side of heater for watts. Electric water heater will work on any voltage.
1) Start with 120 Volt outlet:: Volts x amps = watts Watts divided by volts = amps Let's say outlet is 120Volts. Lets say water heater is rated 4500 watts. 4500 divided by 120 = 37 amps There is NO plug-in timer rated for 37 amps.
Let's say water heater is rated 900 watts. 900 divided by 120 volts = 7.5 amps
A 20 Amp breaker will support 2400 Watts with a 120 Volt line.
120 Volts times 20 Amps (Amperes) = 2400 Watts.
Answer? 24 100Watt light bulbs.
HOWEVER, you should always allow 1 cushion of 100 Watts. That would be 23 100Watt light bulbs.
(Wait until you add electric motors to the equation. Things start getting a little more complicated)
(I always use 20 amp breakers for lighting. 15 amp breakers for lighting is phased out.
Secondly a 20 amp breaker requires using 12-2 or 12-3 wiring. (12/2, 12/3) SO does the receptacles.
Therefore 12 gauge wiring is used throughout the house, until you come to the heavier loads )
[ 12/2 = 2 insulated conductors, and one bare copper ground wire. 12/3 = 3 insulated conductors, and one bare copper ground wire.
Remember, with 12/2 the Black wire is ALWAYS the Hot wire. White is Common (Neutral). Bare copper is Ground wire.
12/3 has 3 conducting wires. One Black, one Red, and one White for the Common. (Neutral) Bare copper is Ground. Used for 3-way switches ]

Well your electric company charges by kilowatt hours. For example, if you run a 100 watt light bulb for 10 hours, that is equal to one kilowatt hour or electricity. So you run your 2000 watt hair dryer for 1 hour that's 2 kilowatt hours (but who ever runs one for one hour?). Now my electric company charges about 11 cents/kilowatt hour, so actually that hair dryer is not using much power at all, so I wouldn't worry. If you want to go down to a lower wattage that would allow you a little leeway with how long the appliance is used but not enough to matter. You can also use the dryer on low or medium to save some money if you would like. The things that use massive amount of power, because they are high wattage and running constantly are microwaves (although they are not always running), air conditioners, dehumidifiers, electric heaters, and even your computer uses more power that your hair dryer will. You should also check out this add I read one time about the things in your house that use energy (actually related to a hair dryer) Hope all this helped! <http://www.motherearthnews.com/Energy-Matters/Hair-Dryer-Electricity-Use.aspx>
