How much does an hour of air fryer chow from batteries?

To be honest not enough to be noticeable, probably 5-10% depending on how long we need to run it for, but the batteries still comfortably last till morning without taking from the grid even if we need to use it, so no eskom usage because of it

I wasn't being hyperbolic.
They are undeniably using it.

I mean:
"reinforcing oversight"
"aligning service providers with stricter performance standards"

Come oooon!!!
Ballsy motherf**ers.

Well, when you don't have any intelligence of your own you need to use some of that artificial stuff.

If you read it, they said as long as unplanned doesn't go over 13000mw they'll not shed.
Well that's what happened it went over 13000mw

why bother honestly, they will shed the f**** load whenever they feel like,
no logic or sense or planning to it, they got us by the proverbial balls, either they want money or something upset them or worse,
so they squeeze and we will all shout Eskom aikhona!!!

pointless looking at the graphs dearest Lupus, I might as well be reading tea leaves or horoscopes that might be more accurate.
actually strike that, to not be disappointed in tea leaves, its ALWAYS LIES, even if they say Load shedding is not going to happen,

back the Truck of Salt up to the loading dock, as its about to get proven wrong.

Or the infrastructure is broken, much like everything else in the country, stop putting weird conspiratorial spins on it. The power stations are old and need to be fixed or replaced.
They aren't doing that, therefore we have outages. Nothing else

conspiracy spin? or uncomfortable fact nobody wants to mention?
as why does it seem like they load shed during certain events and not during others?

I know I must sound crazy, but the load shedding on and off and yes and no, is really bad, and just happens to coincide with other events, sure the perfectly reasonable explanation is the infrastructure is old, but I believe there is more to that,

ADR/Carte blanche revealed all, and what was revealed isnt a SOE in good health, full of bureaucracy, petty decisions out of spite,
factions fighting for power gain, and corruption, loads and loads of corruption at the highest levels.

most of it inst explained away with a graph or a press release.
