The average cost per kWh in the US is .12 USD. Only about 20% of our power is from nuclear, almost as much comes from renewable sources now. 75% of France's power is nuclear and their price is 50% more than ours. Indian and China have cheap electricity, places like OZ, Germany, and Denmark have very expensive electricity. Those are the places that should move more quickly to electrical sanders in industry and they are.
Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.
Deep thought for the day:
Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.
