Predict which current will be greater, the current passing through an electric razor or electric iron.?

Verified Answer :

Heat takes much more energy than spinning a motor for tiny blades. The iron is also larger. The iron has a great resistance which is used to make heat. 

Voltage (120) = resistance X current 

With a greater resistance and the same voltage, the razor can draw more.

The iron uses more current.  The razor only has to run a little motor
inside, but the iron has to make enough heat to heat water inside
and keep the bottom plate hot.
