It must have been a very short amount of time. 2 HP is 1,500 watts, probably more light than all lightbulbs in my house combined.

The muon traverses a few hundred meters of detection volume very close to the speed of light, so in the order of one microsecond.

1500 watts is about what an electric kettle uses.

American kettles. Kettles in hard core countries push 2300 to 2400 watts ;-)

American stove startups can do it in 40 seconds with ??? watts by precharging a battery.

Slow-boiled water gives superior flavor!

Meh, Lidl sells 3200w kettles.
