As we are off to France for a couple of days, I just thought about getting
one there. (DIY bit - I would have to change the plug!)

Again, this is a similar model (FLF244) but it seems to be in noir only.
And here at last is the question! Why is this is rated at 2200 watts?

If you look a bit further there are 2.5kW ones

Do
French electrics not support 3 KW appliances?

Circuits are 16A from what I've seen so no reason why not.

How do they handle high load
appliances such as heaters, cookers, etc.?

32A and 45A circuits.



(No - thankfully we are not and were not going to be flying!)

Lucky you. I was nearly stranded on the way back today. Lot of
nonsense - I think that they should sack the lot. Not that anybody
goes on the airlines for the catering anyway.......
