How much energy is that hot water tap wasting by keeping some tank with water hot throughout the day (and maybe night) for just a few cups of tea/coffee?

Not a lot actually, and there's the space from not having a kettle any more; filling pans for pasta/rice/etc. too.

The cheapest ones are about 10x the cheapest kettles. Can't imagine wanting to go back to a kettle personally.
