We bought one of these microwaves, it is a 550w and we haven't managed to trip the site electrics yet!
It does come in handy to cook veg etc in and saves using gas when we've already paid for EHU. Would be good for warming wheat bags up too, to make your bed toasty warm during the winter!! Or even a pair of these!!Why not have a look at my latest wildlife photos, habitat projects and general natural world related shenanigans? https://facebook.com/Watsonswildlife

I have never actually used it for cooking - anyone who's seen my first cooking attempts in the Romahome will already know that my culinary skills are somewhat limited to say the least!
It has a very rugged build and is very versatile, runs off 12v leisure battery or 230v mains at home/on EHU. I also reviewed it on Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-revi...owViewpoints=1 (please give me a 'helpful' vote beneath the review!)
Those on eBay are a very good price. They were over £200 when launched.
I spoke with the designer who said he wanted to launch a follow-up product and was working out how to make a rotating turntable, which would probably involve some sort of winding mechanism, but I don't think it's been developed further yet.

If you bought a 550watt microwave from a caravan shop you'd probably have to pay £70. No wonder alot of them are going bust people are fed up of being ripped off just because they are camping.

12v wavebox microwave
Hi, I purchased on of these and I was very dissatisfied with it.
I found that when running from the 240v mains it was very slow compared to the usual 700w oven. Another thing is you can only use small
Plates and dishes. In mains mode it took 4 mins to boil a mug of water. On 12
Volts it took at least 15 mins to heat up a takeaway curry. Finally had enough of it , it was heavy and all in all was not worth the space etc in the van and sold it on eBay for approx £65.00. Looked good on paper that's about it!
