Measuring the time and power consumption for Tiger's high-speed kettle to boil 1.5L (PCT-A150)
I purchased Tiger's electric kettle 'PCT-A150'.
'High-Speed Kettle' is the series name, and since it produces almost no steam, it feels efficient and boils quickly.
Beyond its speed, it offers excellent usability and safety features, as expected from a Tiger product, making it highly satisfying.
In particular, I find it very useful because it can boil 1.5L at once.
With Tiger's electric kettle PCT-A150, I actually measured the time and power consumption for boiling '1L' and '1.5L'.

'PCT-A150' and 'PCT-N150' seem to be different sales models, so their specifications are the same

| 1.5L | 8:06 | 170Wh | Approx. 5.95 yen | 17°C | 8°C |
Verification conducted at an altitude of approximately 100m (water boiling point 99.66°C)
Electricity cost calculated at 35 yen/1kWh
Also, since the verification was conducted in mid-winter, the room temperature was low, and the tap water was ice-cold.
Please feel free to compare it with your own electric kettle.

Verification Process
Here are the details of the verification when boiling 1L.
The altitude is probably around 100m. (Water boiling point 99.66°C)
The tap water temperature is approximately 8°C.
It's ice-cold because it's mid-winter.
Let's try boiling 1L.
The time until it clicked and boiled was 5 minutes and 49 seconds.
The power consumption was 0.12kWh. (Please allow me to state it as 120Wh here.)
The power during boiling fluctuated around 1250W.
The catalog specification is 1300W, so it's almost as per spec.
That concludes the information on the boiling time and power consumption of Tiger's electric kettle 'PCT-A150'.
