Have any of you had success running an induction cooktop off of an inverter? If so, please post the make and model of the inverter and the make and model of the induction cooktop.
This technology is ideally suited for our GMCs as it heats more quickly than other stove technologies (boil water in a couple of minutes) so it draws relatively little from the battery bank powered by a sine wave inverter of appropriate size and it won't heat up the interior like propane and resistance heat cooking will.
Our Prevost came with a Gagganau two burner 220vac quartz cooktop that will only work if plugged into 50 amp shore power or if the generator is running. We purchased a single burner 120 vac induction cooktop with which we are very impressed, but it will not run off of the Heart modified square wave inverters (two of them) stock to this coach. Everything else runs just fine.
Replacing both inverters with pure sine wave units would cost $5000 so I am considering just adding another inverter, a pure sine wave one, dedicated for this purpose but want to be sure which combination will work properly.
