Awesome video. But you could have cooked the hot dogs on first boil. Put hotdgs in with the cold water, when watet boils wait 2 minutes everthing in that pot is 80 plus degrees. Ready to eat. Hope this helps aswell.
You keep getting amps and amp-hours mixed up. Amp-hours is capacity and amps is power flow. Also, I put the hotdogs in the water before heating. Saves 50% time & energy!🌭😁
Another great video. I found that same, luckily I have 250ah of lithium. It work well to quickly heat up some food or leftovers but wouldn't really cook a meal from scratch.
I’m picking up an Australian accent Australia use 220 or as you say it 240 in the US we use 110 for most home appliances I prefer to use my induction cooktop more than normal electric or gas. Induction utensils, pots and pans. All you need is a magnet, if a magnet sticks to the bottom of it, it will work on your induction.. I don’t know about your water, boiling pig in 15 minutes, but with my induction cooktop, it will boil water faster than gas or anything else. Look at it this way normal cooking day. Heat source heats up the pan the pan heats the water.. induction makes the pan the heat source. Like air you had an electric stove, the element turns red hot instead of the element getting hot in a pan is getting hot.. the healing process will not start unless your pan is on it. If you take your pen off shortly, it will turn off.
Most US RVs that are on electric use Lippert induction cooktop 110 double burners. You cannot run both burners at full power at the same time, but (if you have two metal pots on the stove, touching each other, they both will be activated at that power level)
You have zero need to crank an induction cooktop up to 2000w, a 6in induction sits around 1500, and that makes a huge difference in how much power you're using. You also literally used twice the power by bringing water to a boil and then putting in your dogs, you should have tossed them in first and let the water get hot to bring the dogs to temp and then only a few minutes to boil.
Actually looking a doing video showing the pros and cons of different styles of cooking. Induction does have its place but depends on the equipment and how you use it. Thanks for commenting.
Hi Geoff if your battery can sustain the current draw a 120ah is very borderline. It can do it but will depend on how you charge the battery back up. If your staying put at camp for a few days it won’t be enough. Even with 200aH battery you have a little bit more buffer but will require you to charge it back up everyday. With 400aH it definitely will be much better. It really depends on how you will be charging the batteries backup.
@@ewkaus thanks for the reply mate. I'm thinking the induction cooktop makes it more hassle and harder. I really only mainly need it for a coffee machine and a milk frother and at a pinch maybe a kettle to make a hot Milo for the kids.
270AH (135x2) lithium, EuroChef 2000w, 1litre cold water boiled in 4min, 5% battery used, max draw 150 A. Recharged by 400w solar in 70min (full sun, ACT winter). Bottom line, induction is ver convenient but not sustainable for heavy use without a lot of lithium. 48v system with a house style lithium battery is best but very expensive.
i was looking for a video of what a lithium battery does when on an induction cook top, not in one, i want to know what all lithium batteries would do is the sun goes crazy and induces a current on earth.

Haha, that is my style of cooking too.
That answered a lot of questions. Thanks mate!
No problem. Glad it helped 👍🏽

And use about a gallon and half less water?

Cheers Houn. Yeah that is what we think as well. Pre-Cook your meals and heat it up.

Pan fry the hot dogs...6 minutes done and much less battery
Yeah, can't beat gas for cooking or just for one burner a little wood fire jet stove to save the gas

Is it possible to use an induction cooktop with a say 120AH lithium battery? I'm being told it isn't feasible and that I'd need at least 400ah setup

Anything induction I would say 600-800ah battery bank is great. Otherwise its kills a battery
Lot of power there. That would be awesome. I guess will depend on how you travel or if you stay out.
Mate, you used so much water for your hotdogs.

Jesus…30m? How much water are you using to boil 3 little hot dogs? 2 gallons?
