Why did Henry W Seeley invent the electric iron?
To make money by making ironing more efficient.
Are power showers energy efficient?
Power showers are more energy efficient in most cases. In a power shower, only a pump is used to pump hot water from a boiler to the shower head as opposed to an electric shower, which has to heat up the water first before being used. Electric showers therefore are not as energy efficient as power showers.
What will happen if the heating element is near the top of an electric kettle?

Why were light bulbs invented?
They were invented to help people see things in the dark.Another answer:Light bulbs were part of the continuing improvement of lighting systems. At first people had to rely on the sun. When they build buildings the only light came in through the windows and doors. Fires in the buildings then gave some light. Smaller brighter fires like candles or torches improved this. Kerosene lights were even better, Then came electric lights - no smoke or smell and they weren't a fire hazard! Fluorescent bulbs gave more light for the same power. Now LED lights are even more efficient.
Is wind energy efficient?
yes, but not as efficient as other sources that polute more
How efficient is a British gas boiler?

Which type of oven is more energy efficient...gas or electric?
Gas ovens are generally more efficient with energy consumption.
Which is the cheaper and more efficient gas central heating or electric heating?
Hi, Electric heating it self is more efficient, however the way the electric is produced is not.typically for every 1kW of power you put into to an electric heater you get 1kW out, but it to produce the electric it takes 3kW of coal ect, to produce 1kW of electric. A gas boiler can be 98% efficient so overall better.So unless you have way of producing electric yourself or have an efficient supplier, go for gas.Hope this helps.gas.
