The cooking power
The mw will work on msw, it just makes less power, than when it has psw power input, warming up a cup of water or coffee takes longer, but it's also easier on the batteries, because it draws less inverter power, less amps from the battery for a longer period
Makes sense... I will mostly be using the inverter to run a t.v. (The law requires me to shut down for 10 hours at a time..I don't sleep that long). Just thought I might like some popcorn or leftover meatloaf. Not going to be cooking meals...ok, maybe an egg or potato.
My old 12v t.v. broke, and the truck is wired for inverter. Figure its time to upgrade my lifestyle.
If that little egg thingy my wife uses in the micro takes 5 min instead of 3...so be it. Beats a 5 min walk across the lot to spend $5.00 on a soggy egg-muffin out if the convenient warmer.
