Chapter 368: What a Coincidence in the Heart
A set of water heaters for the "Haier anti-electric wall" costs 2899 yuan, which is really expensive, so it is naturally impossible for Huangshi to install a set of each shrinking room, and even other electrical equipment He did not install it, only installed two that are commonly used, one is a 40-watt saving lamp hanging on the roof, a 20-watt table lamp on the table, and a kettle for boiling water and electricity that is also placed on the table.
Although the "kerosene lamp" is very bright, several times brighter than the oil lamp they originally used, it can reflect the dim room as if it were daylight, but compared with the "electric lamp" hanging above their heads, it is like the difference between a local chicken and a phoenix.
First of all, the "electric lamp" does not have the special "kerosene smell" taste like the "kerosene lamp" after it is lit, although for the permanent residents, it can be "a long time in the room of Zhilan, without smelling its fragrance, and a long time into the abalone without smelling its smell". But it can be a burden for some people with a sensitive sense of smell.
Secondly, after using the "electric lamp", you will feel that the brightness of the "kerosene lamp" is still a little dim, especially the light of the "kerosene lamp" is yellow, although it is brighter than the original "oil lamp", but it is still lit by adding fuel oil to the lamp, and the glass cover is also used outside the lamp head, but every jump of the flame will make the lamp flicker.
In addition, the maintenance of "kerosene lamps" is also very troublesome, every day when lighting and blowing lamps, people have to take them off from the roof, and when taking off the lampshade, they have to be careful not to let it burn, and they have to refuel once a few days, and at the same time, the "kerosene lamp" hanging on the roof also smokes the ceiling to a burnt yellow.
After using the "electric light", these troubles are gone, and on the night I moved into the mobile room, the "electric light" in many rooms was on and off for a while. They were all curious about the "switch panel" on the wall, with a simple button on this magical white panel.
This TCL Legrand switch is an 86 type K4. 0 single-open single-control switch panel, there is also a fluorescent strip on the edge of the one-on-single-control piano key switch in the center of the panel, so that when the user gets up in the middle of the night, he can also look at the fluorescent strip to accurately find the position of the electric light.
Because in addition to the "saving lamp" above the head, there is also a "table lamp" and an "electric kettle" in the room, so on the wall above the table placed at the window position, Ding San and Hu Zhentian installed a socket panel on it.
This is a socket panel with a five-prong power socket and a separate switch. Above is a two-prong socket for inserting a lamp. Below is a three-prong socket for plugging in an "electric kettle". Then there is an independent light on the far right, and this independent switch can also be used to manipulate the "saving light" on the head of the room.
As for the "electric kettle" is also Huangshi after comparing it with "hot fast", he bought it, in terms of price, "hot fast" only about 10 yuan, and the cheapest "electric kettle" has to be at least about 50 yuan, but after considering the safety of "hot fast", he completely abandoned it.
Because "hot fast" is the same as the principle of electric kettle, although boiled water can also be drunk, but to ensure that the container used to hold water, generally that is, "hot water kettle", and "hot fast" clean, there can be no rust on it, and when boiling water, it should also be noted that the water in the container must not be "hot fast", not dry boiled "hot fast", otherwise "hot fast" will be easy to burn.
After the water is boiled, you can't take the "hot fast" out of the water immediately, first unplug it, and wait for the water to cool down a little before you can take out the "hot fast", otherwise, because the temperature of the "hot fast" is still very high, and the "hot fast" is easy to burn out.
At the same time, if the water is boiling, you must immediately unplug the electric plug, otherwise it will cause the aging of the water and the formation of harmful substances because the water has been boiled for too long. At the same time, the surface of the "fast heating" metal has a layer of gold-plated coating, which will be oxidized when it is taken out and placed in the air after boiling water and heated, and will fall off over time, showing a black rusty metal, which is very harmful to the human body.
So in comparison, the "electric kettle" is much stronger, because it uses steam intelligent induction temperature control, which can automatically cut off the power after the water boils and prevent dry boiling and power failure, and it also has the characteristics of fast heating speed and good thermal insulation effect, plus the price is not expensive, Huangshi chose it.
The reason why it can automatically power off is because the water vapor generated when the water is boiling can deform the bimetal sheet of the steam temperature sensing element, and this deformation pushes the power switch to power off through the lever principle. Moreover, this power failure is not self-resetting, so the kettle will not automatically reheat after the power is off, so as to avoid dry boiling......
……
"Chief, is this a 'solar water heater'?" Niu Dali said that it was a coincidence, he got up early in the morning, and when he was washing at the sink, he was still wondering when the chief would be able to help them install a water heater called "Haier Anti-Electric Wall", but the first thing the chief did today was to conjure up a "water heater".
When he heard the word sun, he knew that the road was about the same as the "electric water heater" in the model house, but it was better than nothing, this day was a day after a day of cold, and it was okay to wash his face with cold water in the morning, but at night, if he used cold water to take a bath, he might not be able to persevere.
Although the chief issued an "electric kettle", it boiled out of boiling water, and it was easy and small, according to the manual, it was only 1. 8 liters, so it is a simple warm bath, which also has to be connected to most of the bucket of hot water, fortunately, this "electric kettle" is more powerful, and it is very fast to boil a pot of water, only 5 or 6 minutes.
But thinking of this method of boiling hot water for bathing, within a few days, they discovered a serious thing, that is, at 9 or 10 o'clock in the evening when they finished eating and walking, and were ready to boil hot water for a bath, at this time, the "electric light" on the roof began to dim, and it looked like the "oil" in the past, illuminating the shadows in the room. Sometimes it would trip suddenly, and the room would be pitch black, and they would be scared to shout.
This frightened them, and hurriedly ran to tell the leaders of the "Temporary Management Committee" that they didn't know what was going on with the road, and then Hong'er remembered that it seemed that the chief had said that it might be a problem that the "voltage" was too low.
As for why the "voltage" is too low, Hong'er also remembered, the chief said, because the power of the "electric kettle" is relatively large, if many people use it at the same time during the peak period of electricity consumption, then it will make the whole island this kind of electric light not lit, and even the air switch tripped.
This is Huangshi's experience, because when he was in college, the school stipulated that it was forbidden to use "special speed" and "electric kettle" in the dormitory, and the reason was that the power of these things was too great, and if there were many people using them, the voltage would go down quickly, and even trip frequently.
Huangshi is a good student, so he has always abided by the rules of the school, but Wu Guangzhu, who is in the same dormitory, is not like this, he secretly bought a "hot fast" to boil instant noodles, and the result is that the building trips at both ends of three days, at this time, when this situation is encountered, the brothers upstairs and downstairs in addition to scolding their mothers, is to follow the dormitory manager to check the past room by room, but the old pig classmate is very shrewd, every time he is not caught, this situation until he moved out of Lu to live.
"The chief knows about this." At that time, after Chen Youxin listened to Hong'er's explanation, he complained a little in his heart, since the chief understood the consequences of sending this kind of "electric kettle", why should he send it down, isn't this asking for trouble.
"Yes, the chief has confessed, but I forgot about it when I was busy." Hong'er replied with some embarrassment.
"So what now?" Several people from the Provisional Management Committee frowned.
"Otherwise, let's put away these 'electric kettles' first." Someone said so.
"That's not good, the chief sent it down, if we put them away, I'm afraid they won't even want to!"
"It doesn't matter if they want to or not, since the chief is temporarily in charge of the internal and external affairs of this island when we are the 'temporary management council', they naturally want to listen to us."
"I'm just afraid that when the chief comes back, he will blame us!" The person who said it didn't say anything in his heart, and he wanted to take back the things sent by the chief now, which is not the same as saying that the chief did something, which is equivalent to slapping the chief in the face, which is worth it.
After he finished speaking, everyone else obviously thought of this, so Guo Mingxin said, "Why don't we take them back, and we let them not use them first?" ”
"I'm just afraid that it won't work, before the chief leaves, he will send these 'electric kettles' down, that is, I am afraid that the weather will get colder and colder, which will make everyone get sick if they take a cold shower again, and there are so many of us, there is obviously no way to boil so much hot water in the kitchen."
"What then?" Hong'er's statement, everyone also thought of it, because in the past few days, they have also boiled water to drink and boil hot water for bathing, so it can be said that the chief is really caring for them, and even these things have been thought of for them.
"By the way, the chief said, let them do a survey, and then arrange a schedule for electricity consumption, as long as they miss this peak period, they don't need these 'voltage too low' problems."
