So I was playing with some one else's Shell IHD:
And noticed that often the usage is in the hundreds of Watts. There's a related story about where all that is going, but that's not for now.
So far so good. But when you put the kettle on a figure such as 253 W might change to 2.42 kW. Glancing at that it doesn't look any bigger, but in fact is 10 times bigger and there's a tiny new decimal point and a k in front of the W units. I thought maybe the LCD only has 3 digits. No, look at the first picture again, it has 5. So why on earth don't they show the larger combustion as a four digit number such as 2421 W? That would catch the eye much better!
Anyway, I couldn't take a picture of it with the kettle on as it's having one of its regular, I can't cope, moments (for the last hour!) 🙄
