    Thanks for the info, I didn’t know how exactly this works, but I was aware that this factor is different for each device.

    Thinking about it I guess that explains why small electric motor powered devices exist often while small combustion powered devices are rare? The only items I can come up with are forestry/gardening devices, tools for cooking and I guess lanterns. With the latter only using the heat/light and not actually moving anything.
