Yes, this is because of the recent Technology Connections video
https://youtube.com/watch?v=INZybkX8tLI
Somehow it's like Technology Connections is spying on me and delivering bespoke content. I had already considered how a 240v electric kettle would work in the USA (and I probably spend way too much time thinking about our electricity supplies) but that video firmly answers the feasibility question, with a resounding yes.
One day I'll commit to having that NEMA 6-20 receptacle. It could also be useful if I get a portable iinduction wok or something like that.
I have watched so many videos on things I never thought I'd could care about such as heat pumps, dishwashers, freeze drying etc all because of this guy. His videos are great!
