I like using my slow cooker, but it takes way too long to cook stuff.
Some foods take 6 - 8 hours. Can you imagine such a thing?
I wonder if I should hook it up to a 240 circuit. That should cut the
cooking time in half.
You need to put child caps on the other outlets on the circut. Electricity
follows the path of least resistance.
I have a light fixture with two parallel sockets. One with a 40W bulb in
it, and the other with a 60W bulb in it. The 60W bulb has a lower
resistance so the 40W bulb will never light.
You said it, least resistance.
Lights also have a really high resistance change as they glow.
I don't think I tried this, but they would tend to want to equalize.
Who's going to try it ?
