Testing My New 300W Travel Kettle To Make Coffee - Will It Be More Efficient?? | Low Wattage Cooking

- Join me as I test my new small travel 300W electric kettle to boil water for making coffee with my Aeropress. Will it be more efficient than my current 700W collapsible kettle, or will it end up actually using more power by taking longer?
So far I am super pleased with my purchase, and think this is an excellent addition to my low wattage electric appliances for heating and cooking. Make sure you watch till the end to see how much power it used, and how long it took to come to a boil.

😮 I’ve been looking for something like this forever. This will most definitely be a game changer 🙌🏾
I was really super impressed!! I may not use my collapsible kettle very much anymore and that was one of my favorite items!
You crack me up! "Don't judge me" as you lick off the milk frother!!! Too funny and I bet most of us would have done the same thing 🤣
Lol!! I can't help myself!
Great Item Heather!! Thanks for the review!
I was goggling at your clumsiness.....soooo me.
I posted video today and had to record part of it like 4 times because i kept knocking stuff down🤣
I used to try so hard to edit all my blooper moments out... till I realized I was one big blooper lol!! So now I just embrace it haha!
@@HeathersHikesAndAdVANtures im leaning to the same.... Especially since I'm not really good at recording yet. If I tried to edit out every mistake , Id be editing a 10 minute video for 3 days🤣
thats a great little camping option what a great idea
It is exceeding my expectations so far! So handy! I'm lucky my internal phone spies know me so well and always seem to know just what to recommend on Amazon ha!! 😆
Thanks!
Thank you so much!!
thats a neat gizmo as long as you have electric
Definitely if you have the power for it. I am pleased it's less than half the power consumption for me now when I just need to boil 1 cup at a time!
I like the SPARDAR heating bottle.
I've actually heard quite a few people mention that one now!! I may need to check it out!
Nice but I'm too impatient to wait that long😆
Lol, that's fair!!
New subscribers .... following definitely. Thanks.
Thank you so much! Welcome!
Heather's- Yeah, really professional ! see you on my side~🤓
300w kettle! I need that with my 300w bluetti! 😂 Do you hv a video on your fridge and the jackary?
Hi Heather.. thanks for the review. I love your video .. God bless you. Love from India 🇮🇳
Thank you!
@@HeathersHikesAndAdVANtures you're welcome sister
@@HeathersHikesAndAdVANtures God bless you
I have the silicon collapsible, and it takes 400-420 watts to boil in 5 or less minutes for a medium cup of coffee. I also boil eggs and blanch veggies quick in it fast. I see like 3 or 4 % from my Pecron LF600 with 1200 watts.Since every watt counts when limited electricity, I may buy this one just for my coffee and hot single drinks. Thanks
So true about every watt counting sometimes! I hope it works out for you - sounds like you already have a pretty nice setup!
Best video ever! 😂
Lol, thank you!! 😆
Interesting how it sounded like it was boiling way before it actually boiled. I was thinking what is she doing it already has come to a boil, lol. Great video. I use the tea kettle in my tight quarters in my car. Knowing me like it appears you are same way, I can be clumsy at times.😸
Omg yes, I feel much better knowing the lid screws on tight with that kettle so any bad spills will be mitigated!!
All them kettles sound like that they make that sound as soon as you turn switch on.
There is one with a 12v plug. I think it boils in 5 minutes.
Wow that is great! All the 12V options I initially looked at a while back took much longer than 5 min - definitely would be a great option to have!!
Awesome! Did you ever find out if you can pour from the little hole? (I sort of hope that could work cause I suck at pouring properly!) Thx SO much for the video! Just watched your other 'appliances' with power stations video! Such great content!
Thank you so much I appreciate that!! You can pour from the small center hole, but I found it didn't work as well as I thought it might, so I've still been unscrewing the lid to pour that way lol!
The question I had was, will it work with my Jackery 270. Guess not.
Darn, unfortunately not 😔
You are so funny!! Hot and strong... just like I like my men. 😂🤣
I've been trying to decide which kettle to buy! Perfect timing on this video, thank you!
I really, really like it so far - would definitely recommend! (The men or the kettle 🤣🤣🤣)
HEATHER the FEATHER, very informative, John will stick to 7-Eleven or backpack gas stove, nothing wrong with your hair 😀
Those are 2 very valid choices!!
Hi Heather, this looks pretty great. I was wondering do you think you could heat up soup in it. I'm trying to take as few devices as possible with the lowest wattage and this looks like it might be a winner. Especially cuz it's on almost half price right now on Amazon. Thanks for all you do and all that you share, sending prayers of gratitude for radiant well-being. 💜☮️
Thank you so much I appreciate it!! I have personally only used this for water, but i could see reheating teas or hot beverages as well! I'm not sure I'd trust it with soups and such for this particular one. I am going to be testing out a new "multipurpose" appliance that's supposed to do both cooking and boiling, but it uses slightly more power at around 500W. I'll update you on that once I test it out!
Thank you so very much. 💜☮️

And don't ever, ever be sorry. And don't ever worry about if your video is perfect or not. Life is not perfect, we're not perfect. Let it go, be well, be happy and be FREE! Love what you do and how you are. Stay true to U! 💜💞🌟🥰☮️
Im hot and strong... in the summer at least.
🤣
Curious how it’s held up now that it’s been a year since you’ve posted this. Pros and cons??
I still use it every trip, and knock on wood, no complaints!
Not a fan of your voice
