    Sure, that's the BTU right there. You would think that if you had 100 equal elements heating 100 equally sized amounts of water (in a vacuum), that it'd go faster than one element heating one 100 times as large. I imagine you'd need some kind of separation between the elements, or they'd end up hearing one another and affecting their individual efficiencies. I'm sure Lemmy can design a more efficient kettle though, let's get on it.
