G'day James,

Check out our features video which runs through the operation of the cooktop for more info, the wattage increments are 200W.

G'day Nick,

Unfortunately not - there's nothing in the manual, and we've had a bit of a google, and a play around before, & not been able to find any function to disable it.

G'day Pri,

The "burner" size is 20cm, but interestingly I had a induction technician at my place recently who advised the smaller the conductive base of your cookware, the better the efficiency and cooking on your stove.
The whole pan should heat relatively evenly even if the burner or conduction area is smaller, the issue is mainly to do with the temperature settings being too high.  Induction is better used at lower temps, for longer periods.
I don't know if that helps at all, but thought it was worth passing on!

G'day Laura,

I have just clarified with Westinghouse and as long as your induction-compatible Pots & Pans are between 12cm - 26cm they will work.  

G'day Steve,

Westinghouse recommends using the Induction Cooktop on a stable, heat-resistant surface and to avoid using the cooktop on metal surfaces. If you want to use it on a stainless steel bench, a silicone/heat-resistant mat would be a great idea for under the cooker. 

G'day Sandy,

Being an induction cooker, you'll need to use induction compatible cookwear.  It doesn't have to be camping specific cookwear, just along as its induction compatible.
The stove top itself doesn't emit heat specifically, as it works off magnetism, but it's recommended not to use this on a metal table.
You can use a 2000W inverter but you may not be able to run the unit at its max temperature setting depending on the brand of your inverter and its efficiency.

G'day Fiona,

I'm not 100% clear on what you're asking sorry.
Could you please give me a bit more info about what you mean?

Ah - thanks guys.

If you use a smaller inverter, it will just trip anytime the cooktop draws more than what the inverter can handle.
There's no ability to set the stove to a maximum wattage, but when the stove is in use you can select the heat level based on temperature or watts.
If you remain under the capacity of your inverter you shouldn't have any issues, but be mindful the efficiency will be low, and you likely won't be able to fry or boil anything.  As your cooking time will be increased, you'll likely end up using more amps overall.

Hope that helps!

G'day Peter,

Thats an excellent question - I've just checked in with Westinghouse, and they've confirmed the minimum for the cooktop to function is 12.5cm.
Hope your percolator is bigger than that - fingers crossed!
