Yes, but that would take some serious engineering. Not realistic to do on a finished, store-bought item.

When two 1W zener diodes are connected parallel will these increase wattage?
yes if you add two 20V/1W zener in parallel you will arrive 20V/2W
What is the wattage in the circuit?
wattage is voltage and amperage multiplied. example V/A=W or 120v x 20a=2400 watts
Three bulbs of different watts are connected in series - which bulb will burn brightly - the higher wattage bulb or the lower?
lower wattage bulb
How many watts can be powered by a 9 volt generator?
There is no way to answer without knowing the wattage rating of the 9 volt generator. A generator's wattage rating depends on the size of the wire in it, the wattage of the rectifiers if it is a DC generator, and the horse power of the engine or motor that is available to turn the generator.
When resistors are connected in series then what happens to the watt?
Resistors are rated in wattage so the lowest wattage rating will be the wattage of the series circuit. It will be able to handle that power any more and the lowest wattage resistor could be damaged and fail.Another AnswerWhen two or more resistors are connected in series, the resistor with the lowest resistance will operate at the highest power. If the power developed by a resistor exceeds its rated power, then the resistor may burn out.
How can you make your heat pump hotter?
Increasing the watts, but the hire the watts the more u pay for ur electric bill. so 120vac will have to be 208vac to increase the wattage.
What is 1000 watt in degree celsius?
Celsius is a measure of temperature, while watts is a measure of power. You cannot convert between them.watts can produce heat that measure temperature, you can compute the increase of termperature per minute, the higher the wattage, the greater increase of temperature per minute will be.
What is temperature of heating element how to measure it if we know applied voltage or current. Is the temperature said to be even?
When talking of heating elements in the electrical trade the unit of watts is used. The higher the wattage value of the device the higher its temperature output. Heating cables are measured in watts per foot as a way of measuring their heat output. The equation to find wattage of a device is to multiply the voltage of the device times the amperage of the device as stated on the device's nameplate or tag. In most cases the temperature is linear throughout the length of the heating element. The actual temperature can be tested by using a laser spot temperature test instrument.
How can you increase the wattage of your computer?
The wattage rating tells you how much electricity its consuming, most electrical appliances give this information.
Will 60 watt bulb put out same wattage at 50 and 60 hz?
Most equate wattage with the amount of light a bulb will put out. But, the wattage is the result of the resistance of the element and the voltage and is the amount of heat. the frequency is unrelated.
What is an element that is the gas in the light bulbs?
Argon or dry nitrogen are common fill gasses in high wattage bulbs. But low wattage bulbs are just vacuum with no fill.
What is the best wattage for a hair blow dryer?
A 1200 watt blow dryer is the highest legal wattage that you should go. At this wattage you will still be able to plug into a 120 volt 15 amp receptacle without blowing the breaker. Any blow dryers with wattage's below 1200 watts should be purchased depending on what the temperature of the air you need to dry your hair. Keep in mind the lower the wattage the lower the air temperature and the longer it will take for your hair to dry.
How many watts of electric heaters set on low?
The wattage of electric base board heaters does not change because the thermostat is set on low. The wattage is a fixed value on the heater because of its internal resistance element. The thermostat set on low shuts off at a lower temperature than a thermostat that is set on high. It is the time interval that governs the amount of heat that the heater produces when the thermostat calls for heat. Once the room heats up to the temperature that the thermostat is set at, the heater shuts off. The thermostat is just a temperature switch.
What is the average wattage of a window ac?
average wattage of a window ac is 1KWh but it may vary due to the brand..LG gives about 1.1KWh and kelvinator the coolest one about 0.9KWh..ambient temperature is also a factor for the wattage fluctuation..for more details contact mohan electronics,ghaziabad
Is it possible to increase wattage in a resistor?
No, it is not possible to increase wattage in a resistor.The resistor is designed with a specific wattage (power) rating, which is a function of its temperature coefficient and thermal transfer characteristics. Altering that would be more complex and costly than simply getting a resistor with a larger power rating.As a quick solution, use four identical resistors, two in series, and those two sets in parallel. The equivalent resistance would be the same, but the power rating, assuming you maintain adequate separation, would be four times greater. Parasitic inductance and capacitance would be slightly different but, that should not matter, depending on the application.
How can you find temperature equivalents for watts if your toaster oven only lists watts 300 600 650 700 and 1300?
Use a portable oven thermometer and put the sensing unit in the oven. Take a reading at the different wattage and either make a mental note or write it down what the temperature is at the specific wattage.
How bright is a 3000k led?
It depends on the wattage and how much light the LED emits. 3000K refers to the color temperature of the light and has no relationship to brightness.
