How much power does the POPUP camp kettle use?

My dream is to take the Dmax and the Tommy Camper Slide-on canopy camper over every track in our beautiful country, Australia. Inspiration and ideas are what I hope to pass onto you. Thanks for watching. How much power does the POPUP camp kettle use?

Great information ! Knowing your power draw is so important !

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

Agree completely. Thanks for watching

[@Kearnesy]

Loved how you broke it down how much it draws

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

Thanks Keanesy. Glad you liked it

[@jordanappleton7211]

That’s a cool little kettle

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

It is thanks J

I have a similar kettle that uses 400watts and it is lighting fast boiling water. I also have a 12V kettle that it is only a bit slower, but very good for a 12V one. I run them from the pecron 600 with 1200 inverter. I charge the Pecron with my diy 2500 watts system from the solar. Otherwise, I would have to take it outside to charge directly from the panels. I love my kettles, especially when I go camping.

Good vid about the kettle.

Thanks Di

thank you for share video

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

Most welcome and thanks for the comment.

[@bevgroomes2151]

Good info

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

Thanks

[@GILLEYEFISH]

Going off your figures that kettle is only drawing 500w. Thats an impressive boil time for that power

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

Not really according to me. The figures were from the Enerdrive app. I must say that it surprised me as well.

[@annettegroomes9730]

Interesting

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

Thanks

[@bradhile5031]

However great kettle

Thanks for watching. Hit that like tab for me. Subscribe for more vids.

A 900-1100w kettle but only draws half that, that's a first. Companion's specs on the bottom must be out. Being picky but it's 2.4Ah (amp hours)

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

Agree

[@jonoday2077]

I’d guess he has two leisure batteries and his amps measurement is only from one of the batteries. So double the amps and you have the accurate figure.

[@bradhile5031]

Double checked the kettle was using 1064 watts while on

[@TONINmusic]

Hey, I have a 1500W inverter that beeps as this it heating up. Apparently this beeping means it's drawing too much wattage. It still boils but just want to know if I'm damaging my inverter or battery? I thought the 1500W inverter would be fine to run this kettle, thanks in advance.

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

My inverter is a 2000w and handles it easy. I’m not sure why yours is sounding an alarm. I’d message the distributor.

[@ryken7797]

inverter can have trouble drawing off your battery as well, i ran a saw with 1340w peak draw off my 1500w inverter which should be fine but it beeped and shut down, later i found my battery can only deliver 1220 or so

[@ryken7797]

if that is the scenario in your case then if you over draw the battery, you can cause the battery management system (if it has one) to kick in its safety mode and the battery will become unresponsive to protect itself and require trickle charge to revive from safe mode, if there is no bms with overcharge protection and that is what is occuring, it could be damaging the battery if an inverter beeps or shuts down i would always find out what the issue is so you dont damage your system or at least be very, very sure you can safely ignore the beeping

[@tonygersbach375]

What size inverter by wattage do you have? Thanks

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

2000.

[@tonygersbach375]

@@CanopyCampingAustralia cheers

[@bradhile5031]

Not real sure how you only used 40 amps I have same kettle on a 200amp lithium setup with 2000watt inverter and a renolgy shunt and monitor it showed 89 amps and 800 ml of water which is max for that kettle took 3mins 24secs

[@robbot9877]

That's around 5% of your battery's capacity about 10 amp hours. which seems fairly accurate to the specs.

[@reeferkenneth8657]

About the same as this guy 78 AMps kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWquZ3Wdfcljfa8

[@danielamos3288]

Dose this have a peak wattage?

[@CanopyCampingAustralia]

Not sure Daniel. Sorry. Works very well though.
