I just got a GE 550 dishwasher and ran it on the one hour cycle and only pulled 415 Wh and used about 5 gal of water. (connected to hot...

Storing heat in stone mass and releasing it over time, like the masonry soapstone fireplace in my living-room: Over 2000kg of stone...

Water 1.163Wh/Kg/K * 65°C(dt) = 76Wh/Kg Brick 0.278Wh/Kg/K * 550°C(dt)= 153Wh/Kg

Just disconnect the heater. I run a dishwasher and only have a car battery for the house. I have a GE Profile dishwasher and it only...

I was surprised to find my dishwasher used only 100WH per use without the heater connected.

Mine is connected to the hot water line. In winter, my hot water is generated with the wood boiler, so electricity use by the dishwasher...

Why just not implement a regulator for 48V? No way the winding insulation gets anywhere near breakdown. The diodes might. See if you can...

No, not running a generator to power resistive heating loads. Heat pump maybe. the btu loss running a generator instead of burning the...

I saw the GE HP unit and have been eying it for a few months. It checks a lot of boxes except reliability (only been out for a year or...

Im just about over this stuff. However a dryer pulls around 7 amps to run a fractional Hp motor. You just need a heat source This guy...

BE REAL CAREFUL what you buy. Modern machines are very cheaply built and they designs have been made with a consideration towards low...

I like the concept and the reviews are generally really quite good. I'm anxious about the reliability - they've shoved a whole lot of...

Thank you. This makes perfect sense to me. Excellent point that I didn't think of. What I really need to do is put a stainless coil in...

The hot water heater will keep the same temp, just takes 4 times longer to do the job. My tank is 80 gallon and takes about 5 hours to...

I run my 50gal electric water heater on 120v just fine. Its a new rheem from HD. P=V^2/R where r is the fixed value of the heating...
