Never heard electrical uplink before but to those wondering Italy, India, and Japan all have requirements around 3kw. I was slightly surprised by this, but in the end if your running this in a tiny space with that low of power your already probably not buying used H100s.

That's actually less bad than I assumed. High-end gaming GPUs are already almost at 600W with peak usage above that. I assumed it was much worse than that; that seems absolutely feasible for running at home.

Hell no. 1.5kw is half a socket capacity. A heat pump or many kitchen appliances are using much more. Our car charger uses more as well.

That's why they said "depending on country"

In North America we are on 120V, making a standard 15A outlet only 1500W max, and something like 1200W sustained. To use higher wattage appliances, we have to upgrade our outlets to 20A (2000/1600W) or up our voltage to 240V, but that carries a different set of plugs and outlets as well.

Usually the home service is 200+ amps these days which is 24 KW total across all circuits, though you're right that most individual circuits are only 10-15 amp.

It's 1800W for short periods and 1500W sustained.

In the US they have a 120V system so it might actually saturate a normal socket over there. My PC room has a 16A fuse and 230V though, so should be plenty :)

A typical hair dryer uses about 1500W. I guess GPUs are mechanically not much different from a hair dryer.

Install it in your bathroom, use it like a restroom hand dryer.
