Salton induction cooktop
Works great at home but when we use it outside on the TT it kicks out the breaker. Anyone else have this problem ?
Forum Discussion
- How many amps does the unit draw? Are you plugging it into a 15 or 20 amp circuit at home? What is the rating of the circuit on the RV you are plugging it into? And,is there anything else on that circuit?
- I don't have an "induction", but my Presto Flat Griddles blow the breakers in the camper sometimes. To work around that, I run a separate line from the power source directly to the griddle. I never plug into the TT with the griddle or electric skillet. Inside the camper, I have a place I can feed an external extension cord (construction style ... 100 feet), from the power pole to inside my TT, and then plug in the griddle that way.
Depending upon what is running through the circuit you are plugging into, it's quite obvious your "induction" is pulling to much power. Try a separate line (extension cord from the campground power pole) and you'll never have that problem again. DutchmenSport wrote:

Great idea. Why didn't my wife think of that LOLLOFAT36 wrote:

What else is plugged in? and which breaker is it kicking
I use a BIG BOSS induction here on the kitchen circuit 15 amps, NO problems but I'm not making coffee, I've not got anything else drawing more than 10 watts (Total) on that line which includes the bathrooms the Kitchen, the patio and the outlet over the dining room table.- Exactly
Might have to put the fridge on l.p. And also the water heater
The outside patio outlet is usually on circuit with the kitchen - Think about it , breakers blow when ya try to draw more amps than they were designed for !
