Don't forget the "more" iron in a pan the more efficient it will be a cast iron skillet will heat up better than a multilayer pan with a steel bottom.

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.

Recently used a single induction cooktop in our van for a trip and it has been great. Took about 10% of the Delta Pro for a meal. The cooking time was quick. I won't miss propane one.

Now my wife wants to cook more thing at once, so this would do. Thanks OP!

The issue you typically run into with these countertop induction burners: generally they heat relatively small areas. so the center 6" circle of your pan is really hot, but then you have to wait for that heat to slowly distribute outward. The full induction cooktops advertise auto-sizing burner diameters, but I've never gotten to try one.

keep in mind with these dual units that you are not getting full power on both burners, but split total power between both.

Damn 10% is still a lot though for a single meal in a camper van no? I guess if you're only out for a few days it's not bad. Not sure how much juice other stuff chew up. Just starting to do some diy camper van research Smilie. Think this is overkill?

The meal was for 4 people. Not too much cooking but reheating food and boiling water. I may have included the rice cooker in that 10% though.

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

Quite a few years ago NewEgg had a fantastic deal on the following Tramotina induction set, minus the pan. I've used this thing constantly and love it to death! Beat it to death.

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.

precisely. Most cheap induction cooktops only have a 5-6" heating element. You'll be fine if you have a pan with an aluminum/copper/graphite core where heat can spread evenly across the pan. If you have something like a 10" carbon steel pan or cast iron skillet, the heat is only going to be around the center.
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.

There is a new induction set from them. I don't see the specs on the size of the element or the wattage....

Can anyone confirm this has an 8-inch coil and heating area? One review says it still has a small 6-inch heating area.

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

... .
Can you provide a source for this? I have not heard that cast iron (because it has "more" iron) is more efficient than a multilayer pan with a "magnetic steel" bottom. The multiply pan will heat up faster than a heavy cast iron pan, and multilayet pans generally have better and more even heat distribution because of the layer of aluminum or copper sandwiched between the bottom steel and top steel.

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.
