I have 3 of the portable one burner Induction systems. They heat faster, somewhat like a microwave. However, the 3 I have heat very unevenly. I have measured over 300 degrees difference from the hottest spot in the skillet/pan and the coolest. And the hot spot is not always in the center. The temp numbers settings are wildly off, and vary from time to time. On my most accurate one on the 210 degree setting I get from 190 - 320 in a Copper Chef skillet. My best guess: Chinese electronics. I keep an IR thermometer nearby to check temps. A cast iron utensil helps smooth out the variation, but it still exists.
I have a Copper Chef model, a NuWave model, and a Tramontina. The latter is the most accurate; the NuWave the worst - actually it's unusable.
Haven't used one of the cooktop replacement models. Hopefully they are more accurate.
