I mean the guy has a 24 foot power boat, probably with two group 27
batteries. Maybe 100 amps, probably less.

Better use the stove for coffee. My opinion, you are welcome to disagree.

I was a bit rough, wasn't I? Didn't mean to be. I don't agree with a
lot of people's opinions on power usage. I say, why use electricity for
something that's done better without it.

Neither one will allow you to
make coffee and microwave something at the same time

I'd bet the farm anyone who would even think this way is the guy who
always has battery problems.



Think this way? I don't understand what you mean.

I doubt that most people realize how much current a coffee maker draws when
it is making (versus keeping warm) coffee.

I use my inverter for making coffee all the time. I use it for the microwave
a lot too. Occasionally, especially when there are two cooks in the
kitchen, we accidentally attempt both at the same time. The inverter lets
us know it isn't happy and shuts down.

No problem with the batteries.
