Tried to cook on battery power

I tried cooking on the egg cooker, which draws about 300 watts. This was back at the old place, more than a year ago. Maybe two. By the way, there was success in cooking a meatball, if memory serves.

This was a step up, but it doesn't work well. Electricity does get to the hot plate, but it draws about 1200 watts ( if memory serves ). Quite the voltage drop at the inverter, and it started to whine loudly.

There was also a smoke rising from the wires. Uh, oh! I had to do a quick shutdown.

Hopefully, no damage done. But that may be wishful thinking. I will inspect it a bit later. There's a lot of food waiting to be cooked.
