How many amps does your electric recliner chair use?

The amperage used by an electric recliner chair typically ranges from 1 to 3 amps, depending on the model and features. Most electric recliners operate on standard household voltage (120V in the U.S.), so you can estimate the wattage by multiplying the amps by the voltage. For example, a chair using 2 amps would consume about 240 watts. Always check the manufacturer's specifications for precise electrical requirements.

How much electricity was used for the electric chair?

None from the public electric grid. Everyone who had an electric chair powered it from electricity generated on the prison grounds.I once read a list of what prison officials did on the day a murderer was scheduled to die in the electric chair. About 90 minutes before the execution, they would start a big diesel generator located on the prison grounds. An hour before the execution, they'd switch the whole prison from the grid to this generator. This is probably so death penalty opponents couldn't use an act of terrorism--blowing up the substation that fed the prison, cutting the lines leading into it, whatever--to stop the execution.Morbidly funny: A couple years before they fried Ted Bundy, someone sent a prank letter to every newspaper in the state. It said the state of Florida had contracted with Tennessee Valley Authority to purchase more electricity for that night. It also asked all Floridians to turn off their televisions, air conditioners, dryers and other appliances starting three minutes before Bundy's scheduled execution; doing so would supposedly allow them to pump as many as five additional megawatts into the chair. (It turned out not to be necessary to ask people to do this--I think half the state of Florida showed up at the prison to cheer when they finally fried Ted, and most of them turned off their dryers before they went.)

Did California ever have the electric chair If so from when to when?

Yes, California did use the electric chair as a method of execution. It was introduced in 1890 and remained in use until 1972 when the California Supreme Court ruled the death penalty unconstitutional, leading to a moratorium on executions. Although the electric chair was officially abolished in 2006, lethal injection became the primary method of execution in the state.

Why Edison decided to develop an electric chair?

Thomas Edison did not invent the electric chair; he was against its use. However, he did work on developing direct current (DC) electricity to compete with alternating current (AC) systems, which were used in the first electric chairs. Edison saw the electric chair as a way to discredit AC technology, which was promoted by his rival, George Westinghouse.
