It's crucial that ANY hot plate have the built in option of switching to the more scientific, more efficient and effective Fahrenheit system. Certainly it's very inconvenient that many countries(countries who have NOT sent a man to the moon) have not yet switched to the superior empirical measurements of Fahrenheit, ounces/pounds/short tons, inch/foot/mile units. Of course it's inevitable that these 'other' countries will see the error of their substandard metric system, but until then, the civilized world must wait patiently.... Lol

Top Video, thank you! My left ear is thanking you :)

Actually it was a german rocket scientist who got that man to the moon.
And he didn't even know what the f*ck a gallon was...

Gravitational units
slug (slug) 32.17404856 14593.90294 14.59390294 The slug, a unit associated with imperial and US customary systems, is a mass that accelerates by 1 ft/s2 when a force of one pound (lbf) is exerted on it.[35]
F = ma (Newton's second law)
1 lbf = 1 slug × 1 ft/s2 (as defined above)
1 lbf = 1 lb × g/gc (by definition of the pound force[citation needed])
g ≈ 32.17404856 ft/s2 gc ≈ 32.17404856 lbm.ft/lbf.s2
∴ 1 slug ≈ 32.17404856 pounds
Take that metric system.
