The logic of all of this just eludes me. The Melitta is overpriced at $10. But it appears that an alternative is a 110v coffee pot with a $1000 lithium power supply.
I don't understand..Yes.the first test was done with a $1000 Jackery power station with a built in 1000 watt pure sine wave inverter but the second test was done with a group 24 agm battery(brand new thids year $200) I already had in the TC and a very old inefficient $39 Coleman inverter..
Yes,there are other ways to make coffee..I have three percolators and a pour over just like yours only porcelain. The wife prefers coffee from a coffee maker and if the truth was told,I do too..The coffee maker was $17 from Walmart yesterday,so that price is not bad in my opinion..
We all have choices including how we like our coffee..I just showed how most can use a coffee maker with an inverter..I used that old inefficient Coleman for the test because that was all I had over 500 watts..I am looking hard for a 1000 watt pure sine wave but have not decided yet on which one to get.
