We had 9.5kw showers installed (one in en-suite, one in bathroom, can't use both at the same time; downside of electric showers!). We can still get a comfortably warm shower out of them at the moment, even without the dial turned up full (just nearly full).

Same as you - I like the fact they're not dependent on there being hot water in the tank. Due to low water pressure, it was that or normal showers with a pump but I was uncertain about noise from the pump.

With either 9 or 9.5kw and higher (I can't remember which is the cut-off) you need thicker cabling than for lower power showers. Sparky should use 10mm cable to install it.

Please tell me why you cant have 2 electric showers running at the same time in the same property? If you cant your installation is not to regs

Cable thickness is not determined by shower KW only, Distance of cable, routing whether it be through insulated floors and ceilings ect
