Off Grid Induction Cooking!

I live full time off grid with just a small solar power system so I use low power appliances for cooking.

I have an air fryer, electric skillet, toaster oven and sandwich makers that will all run off my 1000 watt inverter or power station and recently I was turned on to this great induction cooktop that also runs off low power and cooks at least twice as fast as a conventional electric or gas stove top.

It has preset temp settings or you can set it at the exact temp you want and it has a timer so no more uncooked or over cooked foods and safer if you forget and leave it on it will shut off. Also safer for seniors and kids because the cooktop never gets hot and it won't catch things on fire.

OK, I am very impressed with it and will save me using propane to cook and can be used off a small solar system or power station for camping or a power blackout to fix a meal for your families.

We like ours. We use it if there is a power outage as the solar does not run the stove. That one must be a little better than ours. Our low setting is actually the 1200 watt setting but it switches on and off so you would need the full 1200 watts of inverter power. Between the hotplate and the instant pot we can coast through a power outage.

That is why I held off because the older models used too much power for my small system. These Nuwave models use a lot less power so good for a power station or small inverter. Cooks really fast!

Thanks! after seeing your post, i swiftly order one for my little solar setup. It work wonderfully. Good addition to my cooking setup since i want to use less propane and woodstove isn't always the best option. It bring me more versability depending of the outside climate.
