Our battery completely changes that equation. Whether it's hooked up to a 120V or 240V connection, our battery charges gradually while you're not using it. Then, when you're ready to cook, it can quickly release the power it's stored up to achieve astoundingly high performance. We're talking 72,000 BTU/h. Compare that to 18,000 for the best gas stoves.

I wish this existed without the battery. Here in Norway most of us use electric. Gas is exotic.

But this top looks so damn good! I've longed for knobs and raised zones since I got my first induction stove top.

Induction ranges don't exist there?

They do not need battery in it. This is just a gimmick to make you need to pay for battery service or replacement. I would never buy an appliance like this that's dependant on a battery. It's frankly disgusting and terrible as shit for the environment.
