E27 100w incandescent bulbs were common in the US until the switch to LED. Looks like you can even still buy them, but at this price I'm guessing they're new old stock that's been hoarded to resell later: https://www.walmart.com/ip/GE-100-Watt-Basic-Light-Bulb-4-Pack-GE-41034-1710-lumen-A19/150144812
Buuut the European grid runs at 230V, while the American grid runs at 120V (240V enters the home with a +120V and a -120V rail, and most circuits are attached across one of those and a neutral, except for high power appliance circuits).
So our 100W bulbs are the equivalent of 50W European bulbs.
I'm glad everything's labeled in lumens now.
Oh right, true, forgot about that.
Yeah ours is 230v and high power connections like stoves can utilise up to 480v I believe.
My sauna uses 400v for example.
Lumens are simpler when it comes to lighting, yeah. No more "equivalent to X watts" bullshit from marketing people if the general public understood lumens.
I want to get a sauna, but I'm pretty sure my apartment is too small. I should get a cabin by the fjord so I can go from the sauna to the fjord.
Here they come built-in to pretty much every apartment. Most apartment buildings built after like 1995 have them.
Even small student studios might have one.
I live in one of the worst areas in my city, in what is basically the cheapest available rental apartments. And I have a sauna.
And if your apartment doesn't have one, the building certainly will and you can reserve it for yourself.
And all houses definitely have saunas.
We have more saunas than cars in Finland.
Sauna to cold fjord water would be great, highly recommend. (Though we don't have fjords, we do have cold water.)
Alas my apartment building is from the 70s. Also Norway isn't as enlightened as Finland. I would also like a steady supply of that hard round rye bread with the caraway seeds, but I don't have a car and I'm not taking the bus to kilpisjärvi for bread.
