[@SittingDemon-c6l]

Energy measured in volts? Blasphemy! Blasphemy! Blasphemy!

[@dimitar4y]

i mean..... if the amperage/capacity/watthour is "fixed", we're just basically charging up a capacitor, and in that case, volts is correct-

[@jirichladek7713]

​​​​​@@dimitar4yNot really, the stored energy would be proportional to the voltage... (Actually not even that, energy in a capacitor is W=½CV² but whatever...) voltage isn't power or energy. It is kinda like saying how full a bucket is by the depth of the water. You don't have 5 inches of volume (water), just like you don't have 120V of energy. Its just wrong.

[@iloshwdgac9213]

Are you saying that potential energy per unit charge is not a valid unit of energy. Just square it.

[@monad_tcp]

i could be at least electronvolt

[@dimitar4y]

@@monad_tcp maybe volts is valid because you're a gerbil generating static :')

[@GyattGPT]

The twist at the end explains why it doesn't matter what unit they chose. Voltage not making sense ends up making sense.

120 volts (potential difference) is enough ENERGY to POWER an electric stove. Aaaaaah.!The pain! Decide for one of those three ffs 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@aiocafea]

yeah it hurt my brain, but my headcannon is that the programming is random anyway

[@randomwaffler]

what’s even more infuriating is that they run on 230V in most countries like the UK where RCE and I live, and in countries where they use 120V, it’s double phase so it’s 240V effectively anyway!

[@Katsu_ragi]

​@@randomwafflerthat's what I thought at first, but it depends on the stove. Here, we use 120V, and there are some stoves that are made with that in mind. Anyways, they're talking about voltage, which is not energy and it definitely doesn't power anything.

[@Kallum]

Hey at least it's potential energy ;)

[@Erhannis]

Cease your CURRENT RESISTANCE, your pedantry only AMPlifies your unhappiness

[@jamesthibodeaux8277]

As an electrical engineer games and data sheets that refer to "volts" as power are so cringy haha. I can't tell you how many times I've had to comb through data sheets looking at power requirements (volts, phases, amps, etc.) and all they list under power is voltage and I'm just sitting there like "I have learned nothing about ensuring this piece of equipment will be properly designed around".... lol

[@pranavghantasala6808]

Maybe it's a boost converter and Matt's just standing in for the switch driver

[@Archonoflogic]

To be fair, that's probably intentional from the company

[@John73John]

Out of curiosity, how far apart would the high-tensions lines need to be to safely carry a billion volts without the air breaking down?

[@mandrakejake]

I'm a mechanical design engineer. I often open electronics datasheets, scroll past 99 pages of nonsense to find a fag packet sketch of its physical dimensions which is usually missing a few key dims... (bloody electrical engineers lol)

[@jirichladek7713]

As a rule of thumb 10-30kv is needed to jump 1cm. So 1 billion volts could jump around 1km. Lightning can actually have houndrets of millions of volts, so that 1km/1GV roughly checks out.​@@John73John

Proof that Electricity and Water engineers should not mingle.

[@ayoCC]

I wish they could just make electrons per second a measurement. But I mean you could sort of see volts like the water pressure, and amperes are the actual water in liters per second. A 10 watt device at 5 volt needs 2ampere per hour right, so how about a water wheel device needs 10 energy, which are 5 pressure, using 2 water in total. Or it could be 1 pressure, but then you need 10 water If only I could translate this into joule, psi and liters lmao

[@indomitablesloth2437]

I remember that when I played the game, the pressure gauge puzzle was the easiest for me and the nuclear one was the hardest, so I thought it was amusing that you had the opposite reaction!

Just to be pedantic, power generation is measured in kilowatts, megawatts, and gigawatts, not volts. I only point it out as it is so simple to look up that it should be correct. Anyway great video and interesting game. 😊

[@jamesshelton308]

True. In the case of this game, wouldn’t watt-hours be even more accurate?

[@mtbrocket]

@@jamesshelton308 You could, but I think Watts is more appropriate as you’re measuring the amount of power generated, not the rate of generation because that is how the click game is showing the quantity. Since it is a game, they can use kilo-kittens for units as I do. 😃
