It is depressing as hell being stuck in a fossil fuel obsessed world when we have had other viable options for decades, but take heart when you see electric dirt bikes beginning to proliferate in war, if Electric Vehicles are winning on the cutting edge of the frontline for reasons that have nothing to do with environmentalism, the future is far closer than it seems…

Also god damn I really hate loud dirtbikes and ATVs in nature so looking forward to these undercutting fossil fuel powered dirtbikes everywhere…

    It depends on contracted power (maximum power the electricity provider will supply you as per your contract with them)

    Were I am (Portugal) the typical contracted power for an appartment building is 3.45kW, so just slightly above those 3000W you mentioned, though you can choose a higher one such as 6.9kW (note that your circuit breaker should be sized for it).

    The default and available values for retail customers probably vary from country to country, but given that even a cheap microwave oven uses 700W, an electric kettle about 1000W and an electric heater even more than that, I would say that anything below 1000W is unlikely (and judging by your oven power usage, it’s probably more than 3kW in at least most places).

      I checked and my electricity supply is currently capped at 5.5 kW, but it could be upgraded up to 10 kW if needed before I’d have to move to a business tariff.
