I use my Itaki cooker for lunch... similar and I love it! The water in the bottom determines the cook time. It shuts off automatically when the water is gone.
I've got one too. They're the best
I love mine!
Because the featured cooker is no longer sold, your advice about itaki helped tremendously ❤🎉
Thank you for this clear explanation! I have encountered less efficient units which are very slow to heat up and could cause food hygiene concerns, but this one looks good. Cheaper units tend to produce direct heat rather than using this bain marie approach and they suggest their purpose is re-heating food rather than cooking it. If you were making a drink requiring hot water to go with your food, you could perhaps use near boiling water initially in the unit to speed up the cooking. Suddenly, I'm quite hungry ...
Really cool. Low wattage cooking rocks! A great addition to the solar ovens!
Thanks!
Solar ovens?! 👀
Solar ovens? So you only eat on days that are sunny. Have you ever camped in the mountains?
@johnelder4273 plenty of mountainous places are very sunny. Vegan, Tuscon, Death Valley etc😂
Thank you so much! I was just looking for some way to produce a hot meal, or warm leftovers without using propane, shore power, wood fire or the solar oven for those times without sun, or a fire, like overnight boondocks in parking lots, a rainstorm or snowstorm. Recently we were in the ice storm in Texas, and no sun, power, or ways to set up a fire in the Kelly kettle, barbeque or a campfire. This fits the niche nicely, not too much drain on the solar battery, and can use the small solar generator instead of the beast. Also great to see the versatility of meals possible, but I am sold on the idea of heating up water and leftovers while getting ready to drive. Would love to see more recipes for this gadget!
Liked and subbed 👍💙
Yes, perfect for leftovers as well. I guess that's the original intended use 🙂
As others have stated, this is a great idea for power outages. I have a wood stove for heat and can cook on that, but I don't really want to use it to cook during the summer. Something like this will be a great alternative with my solar generator.
A hurricane is heading toward my father's house in Florida and we have been talking about power generators and cooking. He is over 80 and once people get older, safety is the most important. Plus, even though I have a Bluetti, if the power is out for a week (which we have had a few times) elecric blankets in the Winter, refrigerator or cooler to keep ice to use as ice packs in the Summer are necessary. This looks beautiful for a low-watt cooker. Safe and clean and will leave me watt hours for survival.
Having our own teardrop, we're always looking for ways to cook quick meals without having tons of stuff we have no room for. Thanks for the video
I'm so glad that you are doing this.
I live where there might be power outages, and our rental agreement says that we are not to store propane or butane.
For some reason, I am uncomfortable using propane or butane even when camping ---
I love your ideas for many reasons!
Look up go sun solar cookers.
Look up 12 volt 100 watt mini rice cookers or the Dash Mini Griddle that`s 350 watts AC.
Vintage Coleman stoves are almost indestructible and yet repairable. They use white gas camp fuel, and the pumping mechanism lets you build pressure manually. They seem to be the thing to use for those with the most camping experience.
Nice clear informative video, thanks. For the cookie and chocolate cake you could try a greaseproof paper top tied with string - this is how my Mum used to make steamed puddings.
This is useful for emergency back up power. Soo many in Texas lost power for days and this isn't a one time event. There are many who every year have to prepare for hurricanes etc. The sun never ceases to rise again so easy to recharge! This is awesome for heating up a can of soup in an emergency, water for oatmeal, heck even heating up formula for a baby's bottle (OBVIOUSLY watching the time to not overheat)!!
A cheaper 200 to 300 watt rice cooker with 4 cups (cooked) capacity may be a lot better. There are even 12 volt DC cookers that can be adapted to be wired directly to solar panels.
Looks like that works in the same manner as a bottle/food warmer I took apart (150W). It uses a PTC heating element on a metal plate to heat the water in the small space below in the center. In addition to the PTC resistance limit, it has a thermal cutoff and a thermal fuse for safety. The technology has potential for other heating purposes
I like using electric over gas. I've been using a dezin hot pot pan. It has 2 settings. 150w and 600w. Just the 150w enough works great.
this seems like a pretty useful additional to a "hurricane" or other "power loss"/"emergency preparedness" kit.
There are quite a few youtubes now with using the Dash appliances when you're out camping or living in your car. You should check those out because you might have some recipes that the others aren't using. Nice video, thank you.
Excellent video! I am using a 300watt /12vDC trucker lunch box and a 300 w rice cooker that is great for omletes
Thank you for sharing! I like this for all the reasons you listed, plus also it is very quiet when in use. Some of the gas stoves sound like jet engines - so annoying.
Thank-you! I've been trying to find ways to cook with my generator. Great idea!
Thank you. Nice alternative to Instant Pot which draws a lot of power.
The roadpro 12v oven draws less, usually no more than 100 watts at a time, but takes longer. Will use about 160 watts when filled up.
Good for heating up meals while driving. Tried to cook w it - not enough wattage - but a small 300 watt rice cooker alao from Canadian Tire works well for omletes and rice with veg and lentils
@@karenlewkowitz5858 Well I've cooked with it hundreds of times from raw to fully done. It will fully cook cubed potatoes (my usual test). It fully cooks meats as well, and I've tested this with a thermometer for safety. I've also kinda-baked bread but it has that thickness same as using a slow-cooker. These are not re-heated foods. But a lot depends on how full it is, and what form the food is in. It needs to be filled up without a lot of air in it, and foods with a higher moisture content do better.
I have a 12 volt food warmer. It gets food too hot to eat right away.
I usually wrap food in foil and warm it up for lunch.
I haven't tried cooking asnything in it with a little water in the bottom and a pot
Thanks for creating & sharing this, Darbin Orvar 🕊 I like how the cooking pans were stainless steel!
We use our induction cooktop with a Bluetti eb70 all the time, more versatile and faster heat. The duxtop induction cooktop does cook with adjustable power settings but we can plug in to our inverter in we need more power which is rare. In 8 minutes we can be eating a crispy grilled cheese sandwich.
Darbin, enjoyed this video a lot. I was looking at unit on Amazon but unsure if this was going to work for me while camping. You explained a lot and I thank you 🙏
Assuming you don't want to mess with a propane stove and you want to use your Solar kit with a solar gen or inverter this little appliances is simple and uses very little wattage. 300watts is low compare to a toaster 700watts etc. I think I will buy the little cooker.
This looks interesting. I am in love with my 100w mini rice cooker (Tayama) and my 600w electric burner (Kitosun).
Great reminder to buy a bigger inverter where possible, as even a VERY small rice cooker will draw 500W when cooking. It's easy to forget short-duration devices on a power budget!
Thanks. Found a similar one 80w. I can't wait to use it!
Low wattage cooking... such a cool idea 👍. Thanks for sharing this idea.
This is fabulous (and I didn't know lentils and rice have the same cooking time) I'm afraid of propane but really want to boondock. I love steamed oatmeal - had it on the Ferry recently and am hooked.
This sounds like a good solution then!
Thanks for posting the review. I'll be placing an order for one, after I'm done with my post.
What a wonderful little cooker , worth the money 💰.
great review! I worry about the plastic and the steam combo for toxicity, otherwise I would go for it. Great find though.
I have a small 12V rice maker that you can do all kinds of meals and soups in it. I also own a 12V kettle 2 200 watts waffle and griddle maker. a perfect cooker that uses 250 watts, AC but cooks in no time (I bake bread/dessert in it too). I also sometimes cook while driving to save my battery juice for more demanding devices like my 12V fridge and fans. My 100a lipo battery and 1000 PSW inverter, 12/24V socket, with 150 solar panels attached to it have no problems cooking my one/two-person meals. This device might be useful too if it cooks a bit faster. The other lunch warmers take too long to warm and cook something light. I do not see myself cooking meat in one of those.
Would you mind sharing what the brand name is of the low-wattage cooker and other 200 W appliances you use? Thank you! 😊
I am pleasantly surprised by this video. I subscribed to your channel for your perspective on tech/woodworking/shop topics and you give us this? Well, I liked it, all this because of your smooth, non condescending approach to a topic that is a curious one to me: solar energy and energy efficient appliances? Who knew I would say this about my interests but thanks.
Thanks so much, I appreciate it!
This video changed my life! Thanks for sharing 🎉❤😊
I’ve got a dc version of the heated lunch box You can plug directly into your car lighter socket, or you can link up to solar panels without going through an inverter …. More efficient
Crock pots use 80-320 watts depending on size. They are 1.5-8 quart. These are ideal for low wattage cooking. ✌🏻
Interesting video. Certainly seems plausible but I would think that the instant pot mini would do all that and offer some extras too. I think lower power consumption overall too (higher power but for a much shorter time).
There are tons of small power stations that will put out over 800 watts and pull in solar or car charging quickly now.
Greetings from Sunny Singapore. Really appreciate your video presentation
In all likelihood, the vast amount of energy is used in warming the water up. If you put in water that is already been heated you will probably save half your energy. It would be interesting to test this.
That is bonkers. Super cool addition to camping.
You Should look up the travel crock pot .Thanks for this video hun. it was cool to see.
Interesting idea. I’ve always used a fuel stove. Never thought about electric cookers. I’ll have to try this. Especially at campsites with electric power. Have a good day!
This are great for travel, cooking in hotel room is perfect
This is excellent Darbin! As well it's practically impossible to find any electric cookware to that uses any low electrically on the road. Try some hard cooked eggs, I hear they are easier to peel. btw your accent is very endearing. Safe Travels!
I like this idea thanks. You can also try it with a mini rice cooker rated less than 200W
I steam breads all the time because it is often my preference to baking. Muffins work better than biscuits. Mug cakes and other mug recipes work well. There are mug meals you might want to investigate. At this time the appliance you demonstrate is not available from Amazon. I hope that changes.
Thank you. That is just what I need for thhe camper.
This was a great review and very timely for me. I am preparing to put my boat in the water and I was looking for a low wattage cooking option for me other than my camping stove. I have plenty of power on the boat so that should not be a problem again thank you.
Thanks!
Years ago when my ex and I had a boat I would use a slow cooker. I would plug in the dock overnight with a meal in it. In the morning would just set it the sink while we went out. Stayed warm for hours.
Great idea…I’ve been looking for fuel-based alternative to either warm up leftovers or at least cook eggs…being a Keto-ist and One-Meal-A-Day, would be nice to have more than cold (meat) leftovers - nice break from salads and sardines 😍
Currently, I pour small amount of boiling water into a large-mouth thermos bottle, put leftover meat in a plastic baggie and submerse it in the hot water; works pretty well for several hours.
Sadly, your Starvier link to Amazon shows not currently available if I chose a similar item, would you still earn a commission because of the link?
Thank you... so very helpful, clear and thorough... loved seeing all your different dishes!!! Thank you. Subscribing.
Sold out on Amazon right now.
Steamed Cake recipes -- there are two vegetarian India foods that are high in protein which are types of steamed cakes. Idli, Kaman, available in premade powder packets.
Great idea! I am ditching my rice cooker for this!
A great nitch item
Great Job
Low Watt
Great Performance
Thanks 👍
I bought a smaller one last year for work. I've been using it twice a day, 5 days a week.
Great for bad weather. If you are. Camping mor just if you want to save on electricity bills. I have one which plugs into my car lighter socket and has no water. So you can cook while driving and food ready when you arrive at your destination
Pretty interesting indeed, Linn! Fantastic idea! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you for sharing this with us
This is awesome and great for a beginner like me!! Tysm ❤️
Thanks.. I have been looking for one if this
So sad, because this style is my favorite yet! Amazon says out of stock and not sure when it is coming back. 😢
Game changer!Thank you❤
If it was better insulated, the cooking process could continue using almost no energy after the first heating up. That is what "cooking boxes" do. Even at home, I sometimes put a pot with boiling food into my bed, cover it well, and let it cook for 30 min or so.
Nice! I didn't even know these devices existed!
On baking biscuits, cookies, and cakes, I wonder if putting plastic wrap over the top. That would seal it and keep the steam from reaching the items being baked. Of course, with the veggies, more steam is good.
Your biscuits look more like dumplings, which are also great for breakfast too. 👍🏻
I was skeptical about this video because of the title. A campfire will always be the best way to cook while camping but this is an awesome back up system for bad weather camping. It’s also a great ideas in case of power outages at hone.
I agree, get for a backup system.
ooh thank you.
Thank you for the video
Solar is best when it’s not cloudy. If you go with Solar it might be a good idea to periodically add more panels to your gear so that you can maximize how much power you can collect on cloudy days
Thank you so much I’m getting this
Good for heating MRE style foods if you don't have a chem pack with them.
very good idea!
Perfect! Thank you for sharing 👍
This is a nice option but I would suggest the best way to cook for efficiency is using a low wattage induction cooker with a pressure cooker vessel. All the large institutions know that pressure cooking is the most efficient way to go. Coupled with a small induction module in the 300 to 500 watt range would be perfect.
Great review, thank you 🙂
Great idea for cooking safely in a car. How about Dim Sum steamed dumplings?
Amazing !! Thanks for the info
For that price I can use that in the shop to melt down my beeswax for my cutting board finishes.
That's might not be a good idea. You probably don't want to mix steam into the wax ending up with some water wax emulsion.
The cooker is cool but you ARE AMAZING! I was not expecting this to be such a great in depth review all I can say is WOW you defiantly have a new subscriber.
Great video.
This would be good for biscuits and white gravy. Biscuit on one side and gravy on the other.
Waiting for you to build that ultimate chuck box now :-)
Best review I’ve seen.
I suggest you use a plug in dimmer to reduce power when boiling to simmer. Sips power then.
good idea
Holy moly, the baby is growing up fast.
This is really cool
Thanks!
Thanks so much! 🙏
Great video and power saver
Great experiment. Using the power of the cosmos to cook food! Keep up the spirit. :~D
Its 300 watts, but there is also the function of time is it better to cook 300 watts for an hour or 500 for half hour?
Looks like it’d make great custard or crème boulle

Nate from Element Van Life uses a 3 quart Instant Pot in his van with a battery pack. ua-cam.com/video/U_W2bvn8M94/v-deo.html
I love her accent.
When I go to your link star River doesn't have one like you're using with two stainless steel pots. It's shows two or three containers I don't know which to buy!
I know it’s 2 years since you made this video, but could you update the links to these items please?
well done
