The issue with refilling 1 lb bottles is that they often leak when refilled. I guess the valve is weak and just good for one use?
Anyway unless I’m mistaken there are now 1lb bottle that are...

Re: Efficient cooking

I believe it’s a whole lot more difficult to dial down the power than it is to just cycle it on and off, I believe even most newer light dimmers actually cycle power now instead of reducing current....

So your amp counting?
I do also of course, and surprisingly to me it’s is accurate and stays so, but I assume that is because pretty much everyday I achieve 100% full SOC based on trailing amps...

Re: Efficient cooking

I don’t have anything against electric cooking, we have a toaster for instance, cause toasting with the oven is well, not easy or smart I don’t think, but I think I have noticed something, and that’s...

Dock, I think induction is more efficient than a regular hot plate.
It doesn’t make heat more efficiently, but maybe as it heats the cookware directly it transmits the heat more efficiently to the...

OK I’ll go one at a time.
First they are all Hard panels, Canadian Solar not underperforming flexible panels.
There is a Kilowatt of them, and I can easily see 50+ amps in the middle of the day,...

Re: Efficient cooking

See, we cook meat, at every meal or nearly so, and meat takes time to cook.
We also use the oven just about every day, She does to be truthful, I don’t think I have ever used it.
But Macaroni and...

Ken, your 450W of Solar based on what nearly everyone agrees to will make 1/3 rd of its rated power in 12V AH. That’s 150 AH at 12V.
Cut those numbers in half for 24V of course, but the power is the...

Re: Efficient cooking

That makes perfect sense, but still 400W x two plates for half an hour is a lot of power.
Plus you guys keep ignoring the oven, how do you bake bread? Bake a cake? Brownies? Even a meat loaf?
Do...

Re: Efficient cooking

OK, now it’s large cruising boats, I agree a large cruising boat can, heck a truly large one I guess usually has a Chef as part of the crew.

That I think is the issue, I think of typical cruising...

Re: Efficient cooking

You cook in five minutes and only use 1 burner?

Now I don’t cook, I’ll grill but whatever the Wife does in the galley takes...

2000W at 120 VAC is 16.7 amps AC or roughly 170 amps from a battery bank.
