Honestly a faucets that puts ot water that close to boiling would More likely to burn me then any microwave.
Anything that boils water can have that dangerous over boil.
Something rated for so few wouldn’t be a good heater. At 1.5 kw that typical cut off for small devices in USA. You draw 12 amp. Plug it into a larger 240 vlot circuit and it draws amps but you still only get 1.5 kw of heating. Same time to boil water
I get hot water instantly for most of the year thanks to 110F outside temp.
the legality would depend on code and regardless of voltage we do have 60 htz not 50 htz. That would only matter if there was a clock in the device. You also need to make the wire in the wall can handle it. Fun fact a lot of cheap device with times use the electrical frequency to keep time. That could also lead to wearing down of some parts faster.
yeah most homes in the usa have a coffee maker, microwave but no need for a kettle
I would but I have a rather small one. I used to at my old house microwave the tea water.
actually that the why they are slower. most plug in devices in the usa are limited to 1.5 Kw. weather you used a 120v or 240v current it would just change how many amps it draws

Is it just observable behavior? If so then wouldn’t Kermit the frog be sentient?
Or does sentience require something more, maybe qualia or some othet subjective.

yes. a 1.5 kw heater at 120 and a 1.5 kw heater on 240v would draw different amps but they would heat water at the same rate.
