You can tell how well a pan will work with a refrigerator or any other "weak" magnet the better the stick the better it will work. If you want to do a neat trick with other than cast iron you can usually put a thin towel between the pan and the cooktop to keep things clean. I have used a full size induction cooktop for over 10 years.

I'm also a starter in a camper van, but I feel better using induction than propane. I don't plan to use a lot of electricity in the van though, so this may work

Find a pan that works with it. But the pot does so much that I didn't realize I needed. The pot is amazing.
Hope it goes on sale in the near future. I would buy a few of these. Great for campers.
The dual tops never worked for me. You don't get full power on both sides at the same time. Never really found a reason for very low power to heat something. Always needed it faster. Just slopped whatever I was cooking into a covered storage bowl to retain heat and then cooked the next thing.
The description for this item says it has 8" heating coils underneath so I wonder if that will leave an 8" circle instead. If so that will probably be enough for what I would need in a portable induction cooktop.

I have a Duxtop and it's too uneven for anything else than boiling liquids.

Cast iron is generally considered a poor conductor of heat. It is used because even though it is a poor conductor, its mass helps hold a lot of heat content and eventually the heat spreads throughout the whole bottom. Cast iron pans will be more likely to get hot just directly under the induction coil area and will not be as good at spreading the heat to the rest of the bottom as well as a multilayer pan.
EDIT: Also, be very careful not to start heating your cast iron at a high temperature on an induction stove as the thermal shock can cause the brittle cast iron to crack because it will expand unevenly very quickly.
