Hi all, I got to this page from [[hot plate]], never hearing of a blech before. While reading through this page I started wondering if "Sabbath mode" that I've seen on some modern stoves was created to be a modern equivilent to a Blech. [[Sabbath mode]] does link back to Blech as a see also so maybe someone with more knowledge of the subject might write up a couple of sentences about Sabbath mode and link back to that page. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Wolfhound668|Wolfhound668]] ([[User talk:Wolfhound668|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Wolfhound668|contribs]]) 13:19, 9 June 2010 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:Hi, A blech has nothing to do with [[Sabbath mode]]. The latter refers to a switch that makes an electrical device operable on [[Shabbat]]; a blech is a metal piece that covers a lit stovetop in accordance with rules set out in the [[Talmud]]. A blech has a much longer history than Sabbath mode, and this article really needs to be expanded with more sources than a to-do list to help people understand it.

Sabbath Mode

Hi all, I got to this page from hot plate, never hearing of a blech before. While reading through this page I started wondering if "Sabbath mode" that I've seen on some modern stoves was created to be a modern equivilent to a Blech. Sabbath mode does link back to Blech as a see also so maybe someone with more knowledge of the subject might write up a couple of sentences about Sabbath mode and link back to that page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wolfhound668 (talkcontribs) 13:19, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, A blech has nothing to do with Sabbath mode. The latter refers to a switch that makes an electrical device operable on Shabbat; a blech is a metal piece that covers a lit stovetop in accordance with rules set out in the Talmud. A blech has a much longer history than Sabbath mode, and this article really needs to be expanded with more sources than a to-do list to help people understand it.
