The community has spoken, and they want 120 V. 🎉 👏👏
I’m advocating for a three phase solution.

Sometimes hexbear breaks, but this is a good bit
Now rectify it, I want DC
sry this is a marvel household
edit: never heard of the Rectifier before
I'll step up to 240V
Our European comrades appreciate it. 
Noo 240V superiority! 120V electric kettles suck.
But the outlets look funny.
Maybe I need to self-crit my electronic chauvinism.
The South African and Indian 240V outlets don't look too bad compared to the European monstrosities lol
That World of Engineering logo looks almost like communist iconography.
Just needs more red and a hammer somewhere.
so this has to be the first time me, britain, india, pakistan south africa agree on something but their formats are the only objectively correct ones
That only objectively incorrect though are those with only 2 holes, you really should have a ground wire how much money/time are saving not having one?(I have to belief that a slight increase in manufacturing costs etc is easily offset by the number of shocks and electrocutions you have to deal with )
That's Pakistan
I'm pretty sure that's Pakistan and it's likely because of colonisation rather than some mutual agreement.
The picture is wrong about the Australian/China plugs, one of them should be upside down
Controversial take from an American, I’m a big fan of the UK plugs. Looks like the Australian and Chinese ones work similarly, I’m not familiar with them though.
Any without a ground wire can get fucked, and the circular holes weird me out for some reason.
Also a note from my wife who studied in Japan, most outlets in newer construction now have a ground wire. Also some American devices work with their plugs, the only difference is that one side is larger in the US and in Japan they’re the same size.
the UK apparently is using the Malaysian/Hong Kong type of plugs which are annoying as shit. every time you go to HK (and Malaysia) you have to remember to bring the stupid converter because they insist on using stupid special sockets. the plugs are fucking huge and bulky and annoying.
I like the swiss and brazilian ones
This reminds me of the latest styropyro video, where he builds the macrowave (a really powerful microwave) and he's like: "I bought this cute distribution transformer that will be perfect for the job"
Did he really use one of these big bois?
Yes lmao. It appears at around 5 min
How much do they cost!?
No idea but I'm guessing that it wasn't a new transformer
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I am once again reminding people that the US also has a 240V electric grid, it just comes in from the street split into two 120V mains.
Edit: Our plugs are fucking terrible though. Literal goddamn deathtraps.
ur making me want to play Workers & Resources Soviet Republic
i swear the crunchy power grid design with voltage step-down is the best part of that game
