Not if the stove (and its battery) last for several decades. Even with the higher cost of this stove as compared with other induction stoves, it's likely a cheaper choice for 10% to 20% of US households looking to get off gas.
Show me a battery that lasts decades..
A lot of the EV batteries are likely to last 20+ years.
What do you mean with "last" exactly?
I mean retain about 70% of their original capacity. Most of them seem to be holding up to that.
Blatantly untrue
Appliances that run on higher voltages are more efficient. You may lose out on energy costs
It's a stove, which is usually a very small chunk of household energy consumption in the US. Heating and cooling tend to be the bulk of it, and where people concentrate on efficiency.
