What is wasted energy in a toaster?

There is a lot of confusion on all matters relating to heat. The efficiency of a device is usually the fraction of consumed energy which goes into the function of the device. For an engine, this is straight-forward. For a light bulb or a toaster, not so. For light emitting devices, in the wintertime when you are heating your house anyway, the answer is 100%. None of the energy is wasted; it just replaces some use of your electric heater. But what if you have a gas heater? Then the efficiency is relative. In the summertime, this is a much more important question. For a light bulb, you would look at light output (in Lumens) per energy input (in Watts). For a toaster, the answer is *completely* relative, rather than a fraction. The pertinent question is: How much energy does *this* toaster require to toast a piece of bread, compared to another toaster. I have not found much experimentation which answers that, even to compare toasters to toaster ovens. Toaster ovens may turn off during heating, so it's not simply a matter of maximum wattage. In general, the closer the heating element is to the surface of the bread, the higher the 'efficiency' of the toaster. On thin bread, bagel toasters are thus somewhat less efficient than smaller toasters are. Cheap toaster ovens are sometimes accused of making bread 'soggy', which is a result of the bread being heated by the air rather than directly by radiation from the heating elements.
