How Many Solar Watt-Hours To Cook? (Live Demonstration) 12v portable

- Live experiment or demonstration video showing how many watt hours it takes to cook. This research is a good way to understand how solar electrical power translates to work (effort, in this case cooking or baking a piece of bread). I used one of my earliest 12 volt mini ovens for the test. Their is currently a newer version of the oven in development which will have improved efficiency.
This type of oven is very cheap but can cook meat, vegetables and bread easily. Even a larger piece of bread can be cooked in this oven if you're careful but it's a bit challenging to fit in the space.
We can see in this cooking test how many watt hours (Wh) and amp hours (Ah) were consumed from the battery. The RedODO 50 Amp hour battery has about 600 watt-hours of storage.
I'm working on several new ovens that are more efficient and use less power. From this test you can get an idea of how much power it actually might take to cook with small, cheap, lightweight and portable 12 volt appliances. I believe that small 12 volt cooking appliances should be an intregal part of any preparedness and survival plan.
There is a discount code in the description if you would like to buy a RedODO battery. Note I don't accept sales commissions for product reviews. Thanks for watching and hope to see you next time!

I believe this is the only scientific video on youtube of this kind. There's no other video like it. This shows every person even remotely interested, the exact power required for everyday tasks. Well done! Tremendous help to people who really need it the most. Looking forward to more measurements.
@subhobroto Thank you very much sir :) Watt-hours are like cooking "fuel" and we can compare efficiency of different methods and devices. More measurements on the way !
I have no real use (except knowledge) of most of your videos, but the amount of information, the scientific approach and the passion you share is what keeps me watching. Great work !
@screenshot-nj7fw Hello and thanks a lot for the kind feedback :) it is amazing to know these videos are being watched and appreciated by folks. I put a TON of work into this!
Excellent informative demonstration and so enlightening for people like me who are clueless as to what is achievable in a scenario where solar is required to conduct daily activiities requiring electricity. Much appreciated!
@Victoria-gq8gt Hi and thank you for the kind feedback - I am glad this video was useful to you. I too wanted to see the "real world" numbers required for cooking food with solar. Hope to do more tests like this in the future :)
I like that little oven 👍 Yesterday I used one of those Nuwave Induction Cook-top to cook eggs and hash browns, worked great using solar. It was during daylight hours so it didn't put a dent in my batteries. Next time I'll meter it.
@cliffandrews They are addicting to use, and I'm not even a chef :) I just burn stuff mostly. That food sounds good... it would be interesting to know the watt count for an induction cooktop. I recently bought a very small induction cooktop, maybe I'll slap a meter on it and see what it takes
Been living off grid for a bit now, the 12v adaptions and DC to DC conversions is how I manage... Your awesome buddy, keep it up!
Yeppy yummy cooking videos off gridd love it Sir so does my 9year old Son🍲🍲🍲🍲🍜🍜
@steveadal4735 Excellent sir :) glad you guys are enjoying the cooking. Bigger 12v oven "under construction" hope to finish that soon :D 👍
Very cool! It would be very interesting to see how the oven would handle cooking something from frozen, like one of those stuffed chicken breasts. Since they're essentially a block of ice when you first put them in, it would be interesting to see if the oven could maintain the temperature. Powder coating would also be a pretty cool experiment, I guess I'm going to have to build one of my own once I get setup! :) Excellent video, and thank you for sharing it with us
@colin8532 Welcome sir :) all good ideas and need to try this... also I bet I could run the oven on low to thaw the food and save power
@@solarpoweredge this is a great suggestion!
@subhobroto I'll try it ASAP when a piece of frozen chicken is available :D
If you read this, can you explain this to me... Power stations are rated in watt hours, and LiFePO4 Lithium Batteries in amp hours. Power stations in the 500-600 watt hour class, seem to be equal to 5 amp hours. From what I can tell with calculators, a 100 amp hour LiFePO4 Battery (around $300) is equal to 12,000 watt hours, or a power station costing around $8,000.
Would not it be best to buy a 100AH battery and an inverter? Or am I understanding the AH/WH ratings wrong?
@Knife_Collector Hi, I'll try to explain it. Watt-hours is amps at a certain voltage over time. Think of it like fuel in the tank.
Amp-hours only tells us the capacity of the battery but not how long it will run. By multiplying the voltage X amp hours, the watt-hour capacity is estimated as well as runtime.
A 100ah LiFePo4 battery is 100ah X 12.8v = 1280 watt-hours estimated.
Every power conversion wastes some of the power. An inverter wastes quite a lot power. Therefore, it's most efficient to put the direct current straight into an oven, without any conversion. That's why I build a lot of DC appliances - plus no reliance on an inverter, which can burn out. Simpler tech that does the same work = lower cost, more robust, more efficient, better for grid-down scenarios. Hope this helps!
@@solarpoweredge It does, thank you.

How can I get one of those oven
@errolcain4071 It's a diy 12v conversion, here's the build guide czcams.com/video/z0dKupye594/video.html
