Under California Vehicle Code 22651(o) a vehicle on city streets with an expire registration more than 6months and 1day can be impounded. I suggest you always get a Temp. Reg from the DMV this way PD or any enforcement agency would have to wait another six months from the date of your temp. reg. number.
From a technical standpoint, both toaster ovens and conventional electric ovens are equally efficient in converting energy to heat. But they don't draw the same amount of energy from the socket. A typical electric oven runs on 2,500 to 5,000 watts (depending on the model, age and mode it's in) and set to 350Â° uses an average 2 kilowatt hours (kWh) of energy for 60 minutes of cooking time. A 1,200-watt toaster oven set to 450Â° for 50 minutes uses only 0.9 kWh, according to BC Hydro.
It's true that microwaves use a fraction of the energy of a toaster oven and even less than a slow cooker (just 0.36 kWh for a whole 15 minutes on high). It's also true they take way less time getting the job done. But I wouldn't recommend it for cooking anything of delicate nutritional value.
