Maybe if the UK didn't have people using 4 times the power of a space
heater to operate a shower, the world would be an even better place.

The amount of power a shower uses depends on how much hot water it
has to supply and at what temperature. And a 10 kW one only provides
a dribble - anything less just wouldn't be acceptable.

Always hate it in cheap hotels when there's a 6 kw shower...

Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving / And
revolving at 900 miles an hour / That's orbiting at 19 miles a second,
so it's reckoned, / A sun that is the source of all our power. / The
sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see, / Are moving at a
million miles a day / In an outer spiral arm, at 40,000 miles an hour,
/ Of the galaxy we call the Milky Way.
