Our battery completely changes that equation. Whether it's hooked up to a 120V or 240V connection, our battery charges gradually while you're not using it. Then, when you're ready to cook, it can quickly release the power it's stored up to achieve astoundingly high performance. We're talking 72,000 BTU/h. Compare that to 18,000 for the best gas stoves.

Well I guess that extra peak is cool if you are into stir frys then. But I've never thought our cooking top wasn't powerful enough. I guess sometimes when I've cooked something sous vide and needed a quick sear at as hot as possible, but then I've just used our barbequeue.

Also the battery makes it so deep. I would have to sacrifice a whole drawer for it. And I don't have enough storage space as it is.
