Induction cook top

Is it possible to run an induction cook top (2 burner) on battery power with dual batteries??

    So you can probably use it for frying eggs, etc. Four batteries would be better.
    Also, why not run the genset when cooking?

    No generator installed....

    It is possible, absolutely! Is it practical, now that is the real question.

    A portable, counter top induction cook appliance will draw 1800 watts at 120 volts. How big is your inverter and battery bank?

    I was just looking at a new rv and thats what was there......so dry camping is out....
