You would think very fast, since their gravity is so strong. However, the closer to a black hole something gets, the more warped is the spacetime. Time appears very slow near a black hole, so the question is does it take a really long time to suck summat up?

Do black holes suck in electricity?

Black holes don't in fact 'suck in' anything; I know you are using the word as a figure of speech. The gravity of a black hole is so strong that if an electric current, or something conducting an electric current, goes below the event horizon, the electricity will not escape. There is some evidence suggesting that black holes do decay over vast time periods. Currently, even the absorption of the background radiation is more than enough to compensate for any decay that is happening in most large black holes.


What can you say about black holes?

Black holes were stars that were so massive that they collapsed on itself. The gravity in black holes is infinite and more you get closer to it, more time gets slower. Black holes suck all matter that is too close. Even light can't escape Black holes.
