How can my fancy new dishwashers “ECO” mode last 5 hours? How is that good for the environment?

ECO is the low power drying mode for dishwashers. Takes longer, but instead of heating a 500 watt element for an hour, they lo-volt it so it only warms to about 25 watts. Just enough to put a *little* heat in the cabinet to aid the drying process.
