Tested ! Kings 1500w inverter, Can it run an induction cooker? We find out! #adventurekings

Hi everyone and welcome to the channel

In this week's video I decided to see if my 1500 watt Kings inverter could run mu induction cooker. So never having tried or done this before I set out to give it a go.

I know induction cooking is not new but with such a small inverter I wanted to see if it could be done, even if it was just to get you out of trouble in the wind.

Come with me to see how I go.

I hope you enjoy this clip.

Good test mate, Love the river location it would be great spot to camp and wet a line. Cheers

Surely that shirt would have given you some extra power ⚡️

Nice one muddy
I run a 2000w inverter and induction in the Y62
It’s great on windy days
Thanks for sharing mate 👍

Reviews I did on the 3000 W inverter all gave glowing reports, however it was simply too big to fit where I wanted it. So I fitted the 1500 W inverter. Yet to really put it to the test. Easter weekend in Barrington Tops will be the system test.

Cheers from South Australia. We take out our fry pan and cook bacon and eggs when out trekking. We have the kings 2500 invertor, runs fine and we have been around a few places now..

Ive seen some people run some heavy stuff of the inverter without any problems. Just putting it out there, how heavy are your power wires to the inverter from the battery. You would think you could run on 1200 at least. Depending on what wire you have I looked up and a 0 gauge wire of 200 amp at 12v takes 1800 watt of power. Now that might have nothing to do it for all I know. Interesting outcome with a tasty result. Nice to see my sticker on the back of your car.

Battery constant discharge rate not big enough ?

I just cooked a steak with my 1500w kings inverter on a Dune induction cook top. It threw the E5 code (low voltage) even cooking at 300. The victron shunt was showing a draw of 1700w at 1200. Was at 1545w up and down to 200 odd watts. Cooking in a cast iron pan, yes it cooked the steak but obviously there is an issue. Will have to get a 2000w inverter.

Are you running lithium or agm batteries.. As AGM dont do inverters very well at all ...Because of the huge voltage drop.. Just a thought .. Australian 4×4 Adventures gives the kings 1500 and 3000 watts a real hammering and cant falt them .. And he is renowned for slamming kings gear ..

I have the same inverter, with a shunt to show me how much power it is pulling from the battery. i have a cheap Kmart $50 microwave, that's advertised at 700W, but while cooking it pulls 1360W, i think you will find the 800 setting on your cooker is most likely pulling 1600W, and yes the microwave works great, pulling a max of 109A from the battery, well within my 240A max.

I'm thinking for induction cooking, you need a 3000watt inverter to fully use that 200 watt power of the cooker .just a heads up KickAss have a ''Quickfire Portable 600W Electric BBQ'', it's a flat hotplate 240v, comes apart foe easy washing, for those of us that don;t have big inverters. Cheers Steve👍👍👍

[ARCHIES__LC]

Looks like I’m going to have bacon and eggs for breakfast now 👍👍

[petersmith]

hi steve i have a 1500w inverter with the same induction cooker and 200amp lithium battery and it runs on 1200W ok the inverter is power hungry have a great time

[edswdcamping]

Well, Stev, I think I'll stick to my gas that induction cooking. It's not for me. Thanks for video

[paulhardie]

Mate ya had it cooked at 12mins in 👍 take out fluffin around and not having ya ingredients at the ready I’d say that was a resounding successful attempt to cook Breakfast, , slow and steady gets ya non-burnt Bacon 🥓 and Eggs 🍳. Thanks for the real life testing done under horrendous weather conditions and the determination to get it done ✅ lol 🤪🤪

[Emmet]

Run your car while cooking to see if it is indeed the inverter size or just a low power issue

[chuckcarter]

Hey Hollywood what’s more important……can it run a HF linear ? 73 Chuck

Just brought a Kings single burner gas stove much cheaper and no need for expensive battery inverters . I Think people are buying a lot of gadgets ya just dont need
