I wonder if it will help my hot water jug?

Only if you are boiling oxygen free water.

The write-up suggests the power will get to your gear FASTER though that cable... So that's got to be good right? ;)

Does that mean it will boil the water in my kettle faster? Cus that could really work out for me and make it worth every cent.

You could achieve the same thing by using a shorter cable. :-bd

So many holes to pick I don't know where to start. =))

I was mildly intrigued, so I googled and found a review.

I always wonder how the "New improved Super Cable" gets around the fact that it's plugging into the crappy old socket on the wall with aging wiring going through a worn out circuit breaker, RCD safety switch and a trembler fuse on the Supply pole then there's the twisted aluminium cable in the supply grid and the corroded connectors into the overstressed transformer on the corner etc etc.

But that last 3 feet from the wall socket to the IEC plug is really good and achieves 68% of light speed.....

My Andrews 2" hollow core Coax on the transmitter is faster than that, bit fiddly to terminate though.
May look a bit odd bringing it back down to an RCA socket for the audio interconnects, but it is good for 50,000 watts continuous at 1MHz into 50 ohms :D
