Thermodynamics won’t allow anything to have an efficiency of 100% because some energy will be converted to heat. What about electric irons and pretty much any other heating equipment that has a working principle revolving around losing energy to heat

Some heat is lost in the wires or other electronics.
You’re right that even wasted energy is almost always heat. But that heat isn’t necessarily used by the iron, it just escapes.
