Do microwaves Lose their omphf over time? I've had some old ones seem perfectly fine.

Just had to look this up. Apparently they do. The the magnetron (the electrical element that converts electrical energy into microwave energy) will not maintain the same power levels over time.

Sounds desirable tbh. Other than boiling water, a lower energy cook is typically better for microwaving.
