-Note that while you can turn //down// power on a higher-powered crock there is no way to turn //up// the power on a lower-powered crock.  +Also note HI/LOW on different size crocks tends to cook similarly as the wattage is designed by the engineers to match the size.  In the examples above HI power is rated ~50w/qt.  
  
  
 +==== temperature ====
 +
 +Crock-pot / Rival has said in Amazon responses that 
 +
 +>>  All of our current slow cookers do cook at higher temperature settings than our old ones. The Keep Warm setting is approximately 165 to 170 degrees F. Both the Low & High settings cook at 215 degrees F., but they cycle differently. Therefore, the High setting will still cook the food in a shorter period of time than the Low setting will.
 +
 +In 2015 they were stating 209F, which lines up with the statement above.
