Gas cookstops or Electric cookstops?

I’m planning to purchase gas cooktops and was wondering how much Btu should Gas cooktops have? And which of the two cookstops (Gas cookstops and Electric cookstops) works best at home?

You want to buy a hob/range for your home. Yes?

And want to know if gas or electric is better. Yes?

I personally like gas tops. But where we are now, it's difficult to cook with the doors open as the damn flame isn't consistent.

What's BTU? I know i have 4 tops: Small pan, Smaller pan, Big Pot, Biggest Pot.

I haven't mastered electric tops as I am of the old kind, cooking according to the size of the flame!

British Thermal Unit. A non-SI unit for energy.

1 BTU = 1055 joules.

Of course a lot of that will depend on the gas supply as well and not necessarily the height of the flame. Check out the BTU (heat) from a Bunsen burner.
