Also, I know it's an American channel so it has to use things like "gallons", but please when talking about energy, use Joules, not "kilowatt hours".

Does Europe use joules to measure electricity usage in your home? ๐Ÿค”

Here in Australia we measure the flow of electricity in Kangaroo Hops per Hour.
