Watch On Bitcoin pricing is rather volatile. In Q3 last year, it nudged over $125,000 , but 1BTC is currently valued at around $91,000. Superheat H1 owners should benefit from a higher Bitcoin valuation, but no one really knows which direction, nor how high or low BTC could go in 2026. CNBC recently measured investor and analyst predictions and estimated that Bitcoin valuations of between $75,000 and $225,000 would be seen this year.
Owning a Superheat H1 might be yet another reason for not being able to tune out from watching information feeds and stressing about trends, charts, and valuations. Can I heat water with a heatsink on my forehead?

The electricity involved creates electrolysis betwixt and among the materials and components within the tank, in particular the tank body itself, and if you don't keep the sacrificial anode rod fresh, it will eat itself from the inside-out. Probably 90% of EHWHs die in this fashion, leaks inevitably develop and the only repair is replacement of the entire unit. Fun HWH fact: There was, circa mid-20th-century, a company that manufactured water heaters entirely out of copper, which don't suffer the same fate as steel-tank units. They were guaranteed for something like 50+ years. Company went out of business by the mid-late 60s. They ran out of customers that needed new water heaters because their product was too good.
