    Hi Amanda
    Great u got 1!
    U shouldn't have to vent those, in fact u can put frozen dinners in box and all in tact.😊
    That will lower the time it takes as well.
    I'd be surprised if they aren't ready 20 mins or so.
    Some of them come with Pyrex dish with lid, seals in the heat.
    I've put my dogs can food in there. Fits 3 small cans perfect.
    I believe you'll love this especially with those meals.
    U can just shake them to stir at anytime, so no venting needed to stir.
    And yes they also have 12 volt ones and 12v adapters to be versatile.
    Have fun! Peace my friend, Dianna from Denver Co

    One of the great parts of the Hot Logic is that you can't burn or overcook a meal since it only gets to 165'. I have had one for over 6 years and love it.

    Only $16!?! Great deal! I bought one earlier in the year for $39. I've reheated flat frozen dinners and soup in there. The final temp for me is ready to eat hot without burning the tongue.

    My son uses one for his lunch at work. It’s 12v so he can use it on his tractor. We found it heats food faster in a glass dish! Also for things like wrapped food (subs, tacos etc) put a layer of tin foil down and don’t use a container.

    Found one of these at the goodwill so I UA-camd it. 😂 I have severe food allergies and I believe this will help with traveling. I sure hate it takes 45 minutes to heat up, but it safer for sure.

    I have the SabotHeat. Similar to the HotLogic with a hot plate in an insulated case, but the Sabot Heat has adjustable heat levels and a timer and is 12v. It gets a little hotter than the Hot Logic. When I was van camping in northern Michigan last fall, I made chili at home and vacuum packed individual portions with my FoodSaver. Then I just tossed one in the SabotHeat to warm up. Best part was I just cut the FoodSaver bag open and added my toppings and ate right out of the bag. Only dirtied a spoon.

    I’m a flight attendant and this is SUCH a lifesaver. Love mine! I use it all the time. Even if my hotel room has a microwave I will often use this for my food (if I have a longer layover) because the quality and flavor is so much better

    My daughter is a traveling speech therapist and she heats hers in the microwave before leaving home, adding it to the hot logic plugged into the car until lunch to keep it warm. She always said a good two hours from cold or frozen.

    I got mine on Amazon prime and didn’t get it for no 16.00. More like 25.00. Those TV dinners from Home chef look really good! Thanks for testing this out because I wondered the same this with using a solar generator to heat them up. Thanks for sharing your findings with us!

    Thanks for the heads-up about the plug. I need an electric lunch box with a cigarette lighter adapter as I'll be using it in my car at work. I'll probably get the Koolatron.

    Yes, I think they make them with 12 Volt and can plug into a cigarette lighter, or power station.

    Would it not be easier (or faster) to use a small plugin induction burner and a frying pan to heat it up?

    • @bryanbryant9962
      @bryanbryant9962 17 днів тому

      Nothing wrong with induction burner, but HotLogic has two advantages I can think of: much lower wattage (50) vs. 600-1500 watts for induction burner, and warming capability: HotLogic keeps your meal warm for hours if desired without drying out the food.

  • @Teri728
    @Teri728 Рік тому

    I was wondering if they would cook things like raw rice or chicken and it appears they don't.

    • @AdventuringWithAmanda
      @AdventuringWithAmanda  Рік тому +5

      It will cook raw chicken. Takes a few hours.

    • @massagesbynakia
      @massagesbynakia Рік тому +2

      It will cook raw chicken takes about two hours. You can cook minute rice in them. Add your minute rice, chicken bullion cubes. When your chicken is done. Your rice will be also.
