Got a stack of broken toasters. Think they could be the basis for a retro‑futuristic building block?

Broken toasters are a goldmine for glitch‑style architecture, you know? Imagine each one a little burnt‑bread tower, wires flickering like neon graffiti. Retro‑futuristic and totally off‑beat—exactly what the mainstream will never dream of. Let’s stack them, wire them, and watch the whole thing pulse like an old arcade on a city skyline.

Sure, but you’ll need a list of specs before you start. Wires, current, heat tolerance, what not to plug into the toaster’s own outlet. And be careful with that vacuum‑sealed packaging; it’s a pain to open and it’ll just trap the smell of burnt toast. Let’s get to the point: how much current will each toaster draw? Then we can design a circuit that won’t fry the whole building.

Typical kitchen toasters run about 1.2 kW to 1.5 kW on a 120‑V circuit, so that’s roughly 10 to 12.5 amps. If you’re in a 240‑V zone it drops to about 5 to 6.5 amps. Don’t forget the heat—those ceramic plates can get red hot fast. A simple 10‑amp fuse per unit and a thermal cut‑off will keep the whole building from turning into a pizza oven.
