Скачать или смотреть When you stay in a hotel, have you ever had this question

the capacity of the electric kettle at home is obviously above 1.5L, but the kettles in the hotel rooms are mostly small-capacity models of 0.8-1L?
First, a smaller capacity is more suitable for the practical needs of short-term stays. When staying in a hotel, we mostly use hot water for a cup of coffee, a bowl of noodles, or to boil a small amount for rinsing our mouths or washing our faces. In these situations, 0.8L of water is just enough for one or two people. There's no need to repeatedly reheat the water due to excess water, nor is there any time wasted waiting for it to boil. Imagine if the hotel had a large 2L kettle, and you just wanted to make a cup of tea, but had to wait for a full kettle of water to boil. This would not only waste time, but also lead to unnecessary energy consumption, and ultimately reduce the hotel experience.

Second, a smaller capacity helps hotels balance safety and cost. For one thing, smaller electric kettles typically draw less power (mostly between 1000-1200W), placing less load on the hotel room's electrical circuits.
