Not exactly.... A guy who is into solar was telling me a water heater element designed for a 220 volt water heater could be used at 24 volts with solar pannels. He’s logic was the similar/same as the original poster. I had my doubts, but he tells me it works for him. Can’t argue with a believer. But then again over the years I’ve leaned the laws of Physice always seem to make an exception for some of his applications. Thank you for reaffirming my trust in science.
