Before turning your AC down to 18°C, try setting it around 24°C and see how the room feels. A lower setting won’t necessarily cool the room much faster, but it can increase electricity use.

Walk into any electronics store today and you’ll find air fryers and OTGs sitting side by side, both promising the same thing: crispy, oven-style food without turning on a full-sized oven. For most Indian households, the choice used to be simple – an OTG for baking birthday cakes and reheating, nothing more. But with air […]
