Steam irons heat faster too, you know, just in case you need to iron your fancy shirt in a hurry before you leave, not that that would ever happen to me or anything…
Btw do you have a big solar array or what is the inverter for?
Yea, big steamer vs iron fan here. This will be for a van. A while back we aquired a mini van and through the magic of DIY it now has no back seats, a couch+bed, fold up kitchen and running water. We are very outdoorsy and like cheap travel, so we are doing some planning for potential next/future stage of life in something that could replace structural living 😉
No more than a pot on induction. Or for that matter, no more than with propane, or friction, or pressure, or with a mini-sun. Takes the same amount of energy regardless hah.

I’ll be choosing an inverter soon. In the US, but considering a 240v just for the kettle.

You’ll need a massive battery and inverter to boil a kettle, that’s a lot of energy.

Speaking of which, this is a pretty cool tool: https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/water-heating
So for 1 liter in my case, a 2K watt inverter woth 80% efficiency across the system would take under 4 minutes to boil.
