There’s a range in there where lower numbers can be longer times than higher ones. For instance, 111 is less time than 99, since it gets interpreted as 1:11, or 71.
It’s as entered on a microwave. Any one with digital time entry I’ve seen have 2 digits as seconds and then the most significant ones beyond 2 become minutes.
Look at this nerd setting the power level. Just cook it on full blast like everyone else. Just let whatever it is sit and the lava parts will warm up the frozen parts eventually.
See, that’s the thing. I still can’t tell if you’re talking about several buttons, or if you’re talking about buttons located in parking lots. You’re saving a miniscule amount of time at best.
Everyone else doesn’t just smash the +30 sec button until it gives you a time that’s close enough?
This is the way.
My complicated AF microwave has a dial. I just turn it to the right time.
Mine doesn’t have that button, but I exercise a similar strategy.
Need 1 minute? Too many buttons. 111 will be fine.
5 minutes? No. 444. Close enough.
10 minutes is 999 of course.
Etc.
8:88 is closer to 10 minutes than 9:99
66 is better for 1 minute
55 is a second closer than 66
Are those seconds? As in is 100 = one minute or 100 seconds? Because
111sec ~= 2min
444sec ~= 7 1/2 min
999sec ~= 16 1/2 min

Doesn’t work with “power level”, need to press “cook time” next :/

Normal person: guess I have to enter the correct cook time
Me: enter cook time as 5 and start and then you can still smash +30 sec
My pet peeve recently is that some microwaves don’t also automatically start when you push +30, forcing me to push an extra button…
I would do like “2:22” then START
That’s my thing. Why push lot buttons when one do trick?
