Finally someone who can do the math correctly. Thank You. I have made these same mathematically calculations in some of my past posts. Go back and look at some of the silly math that people have come up with to justify how WDRP is doing it. One even said the magnetrons will produce 3000 volts so you need to use 3000 volts in the equation, not 120 volts.

Actually I agree that at this point it doesn't look like they will be substantially more efficient than an electric tankless, if at all. But if efficiency is similar and there are some small advatages here and there, such as slightly lower price, maybe faster heating, a green image leading to some state rebates, lower maintenance or maybe just good marketing it could still be worth being into it. If it only ever reaches 0.20 and only on a spike I'd still call it all worth it. And maybe there's something we're missing, they must have looked into the general math before starting to put the entire company together.
