microwave replacement
My microwave finally died & I can't find anything to replace it size wise. It is a Sharp R-312. I did see on here that a Panasonic SSN667 fits perfectly but I can't find one. Any other ideas? Thanks

The nice thing about these inverter microwaves is that when you turn the power level down, they actually lower the wattage of the magnetron tube, instead of pulsing it off and on at full power when you select a lower cooking level.
Exactly what I need when we’re using my little Yamaha 1000 generator. When we’re on shore power, I can let’er rip at full power. When the Yamaha is running I can set it on “5” and it will stay under the 900 watts the generator capable of.
That's a good point - Theoretically, you could probably run your inverter microwave on less than 500 watts of AC power, if you dialed it all the way down to "1".
I "went small" with my conventional microwave for the same reason: It doesn't require a lot of AC power.
Even so, the cooking time doesn't seem to be appreciably longer than with a "full-size" microwave - although the maximum food capacity is considerably less.
