You need thicker wires for the same power. Which is why Americans live in constant fear of power extension cords, and people in EU just daisy-chain them with abandon.
- extraduder_ire 2y agoIf you're in a country that uses type-G plugs, almost* all of those extension cords have fuses that break well below the current that will cause a problem. * Currently using a cable spool which will have problems before blowing the fuse if it's wound up and I draw too much current. It has a thermal cutoff, but I still unspool some extra wire on the floor.
