    I find it super interesting to see the variation of people in the outdoor community. I see homeless nomads really making do with low voltage rice cookers using them for just about everything and living out of cars with low capacity jackerys then at the other end the 4wd community with all the bells and whistles, gigantic battery setups, inverters and the whole shebang costing an absolute mint in comparison. We share a Subaru outback in our family and made do with two kick ass handy packs that we can charge up on either solar, 240v at home or 12v cig socket and two trangia gas stoves. It was just prohibitively expensive and to be honest silly to put in oversized lithium packs as an aux system. I built a slide out table below the bed mounts in the car to do everything from, but love the option of using a low wattage rice cooker to still be able to cook inside the car if need be if raining etc. The window vents i installed allow for airflow but protect from rain and direct wind. I'm sure this video hit the community mark you're targeting, but I just about fell off my seat at the price tag on those airfryer/oven combos. $500! yikes! Even our fmily Trangia cost just a bit over $100.

Invertors are very inefficient and you are likely drawing 1.3 or even 1.4 times the AC load. Put the tongs on the DC feed and youll see what i mean. cheers Steve

    Difference between the Air Fryer and the Oven though is more than 10x the power draw, so it should be much faster. Air Fryer Will likely be 1500W+ (yours is 2400W) and the oven is probably 130W so yeah. I just ran my KickAss 12V oven for 100 mins and it used 18.84Ah or 0.14kWh. 159.2W (peak) and 12.06A (peak). Based on that, Oven would use 0.28kWh in 200 min (less because it will cycle on/off whereas in my test just now it took that full 100 min at full power to get to 181°C). Air Fryer will use more power but be much faster. And some things are better in an oven and vice versa. If cooking while driving - oven. If cooking at camp - air fryer.

I got my inspiration from one of your vids then went for it. 0 gauge pure copper cable is also the way to go ! Hydrolic pressed and soldered fittings. Termination is key. The renogy inverter is a bit flimsy, but so far holding up, in sure it will rattle to death at some point.

    Iv been playing with the idea of a air fryer in my troopy but I can't get past the ease of pre cook before a trip. currently I just pre cook and vac bag all my food before camping and chuck in the freezer. Chuck the bag in boiling water for 10min and it's re heated and comes out just as good as when it was fresh cooked. Nothing like eating slow cooked smoked brisket or ribs out in the middle of no where after a quick 10min re heat.. plus using a gas cooker saves much power, bugger having a induction cooker for just water. I like to save my battery power for the fridge/freezer,portable aircon and tv/computer But cool setup you have don't get me wrong

I did a bit of research found out that Aldi, Coles, Spotlight all sold a similar product 12-15 months back with either digital display or a manual knobs & no display. I found a near new Mistral 18L Air Fryer/oven at Cash Converters online for $80 delivered so I've gone down that path. other brands are Stirling (Aldi) & Thomson (Coles), the Aldi version had a digital display but not up top like the Ninja. All versions flipped like the Ninja too.

Not had one of the jaycars, but I nearly ended up with a 2000W when I got the kings. the only thing was I could pick up the kings on the spot when I made the knee jerk decision to grab one. Beyond that, I haven't used on I'm afraid. Enjoy the holidays mate.

Thank you for reminding me though, as I hadn't looked in a while. I also need to pull the kaon rack out to make the fitment and I must admit my motivation to pull it out just hasn't been there of late. All that said, Ive still been using the smaller unit in the pajero on occasion and have been using the ninja out on the verandah at home just to put it through it's paces to ensure it deserves its spot in the 4wd. so far as has gone well on all counts. the lithium and inverter is all holding its weight and both air fryers are working without issue.

The last one we had (off brand, much larger) was a great unit, yet horrid to clean. The splattering grease eventually killed off sections of the elements, since no screen or way to avoid that with hot air circulating. Hope to come up w/a way to guard against a repeat, & a smaller unit will surely make for smaller mess- at the very least. Thanks so much for sharing the details as you do~ truly helpful.

I often use foil or baking paper to help with clean up. I am still somewhat cautious with it for heavy off road use as far as the elements themselves go. but only time will tell that one.

If you plan using your 12v set up for other appliances especially after dinner you will find in the morning that it will be around 50 to 60% full. That's ok U can draw lithium down to 20%, but it effects the batteries life cycle. Something to think about. If it's a non sunny day following, hard to charge back up.

    Interesting, I own a Taste The Difference Air Roaster Pro air fryer oven. It has a rotisserie etc. awesome for camping as it consumes at 1550 watts when it’s on. And it also cycles on off when it reaches temp which makes it further efficient. I’ve had no problems mounting in my Pajero, but I’m about to upgrade to a upright fridge in my Pajero which means I loose that space where my air roaster pro is mounted. This air fryer oven you have might work for me. However I will greatly miss the rotisserie capability if my air roaster Pro. Plenty room in it to bake a whole cake. However the 1800 watt draw of the one you got is a deal breaker.

    Excellent video , food for thought to those that have larger lithium set ups. You should take a look at EFFICIENTSELF’s review on the 3000 watt renogy inverter. He has found that it doesn’t support induction loads very well. I think the Kings offerings deliver the ratings stated, 1500 and 3000. The other thing you need to be aware of is you should not expect to support a 3000 watt load on a single 10 amp 240 volt power point. Need to share the load over the 2 power points supplied.

    Hey Fred. Thanks mate. That's exactly why I share. Just to give others ideas. I love that aspect of KZread. I've done some initial testing and can confirm the unit successfully runs on both the king's and the renogy 3000w units. I'm seeing approximately 215A draw. With full sun on my solar it comes down to under 200A. I'm looking to improve the solar soon which should be good for roughly another 20-30amps under good conditions of course. I've heard others suggest their units, whilst listed as 3000w were only capable of 1500 per side. That would keep it under that 10A rating per side. The good news is at the 215A even without solar I'm under the 10. Not by much but it's under. The cells themselves have a max discharge of 272A. Id like to stay well away from all of those limits as much as I can. I'm yet to try the induction cooker, but I definitely will as soon as I get the chance. Happy new year Fred.

    I know this is an old comment but I just saw this video. Why do you say you shouldn’t expect to run it off a single 240v power point? If someone was using it in their house they would just have it on single point.

    @@mj_aussie_coaster_travels8310 the formula for power is volts x amps. So a house circuit rated at 10 amps can only take a total load of 240 volts x 10 amps =2400 watts. In a house you have several 10 amp power circuits that can support a 2400 watt load.. A caravan that is connected to a 15 amp rated supply can only support a total load of 240 volts x 15 amps = 3600 amps. Hope this explains my original comment.

    All very good, but...... these Air Fryers are made and designed for domestic use, not for getting "rocked about" on some 4WD track. The Travel Buddy, Road Chef, and others like these, are designed to be simple & robust, to take the riggers of off road travel. I don't think that they would survive off road too long. I will be sticking with my reliable Travel Buddy.

    We'll see. I've seen plenty of 12v ovens fail. You're right though but it's only a fan and some heating elements. I'll put it through it's paces and find out. If it dies, I'll report back. But let's also be honest, how often do these 4wds of ours do those tracks that would need it to be more robust? Time will tell.

    That's a lot power to run and overtime. I guess if you have 300 ah to use that's fine. No good for my 200ah/2000watt inverter. Time I boiled the jug for a cuppa I probably would have used 20 % and be concerned, especially on an overcast day knowing that my two fridges, night lights, electronics, shower and possible breakfast and lunch to go. No tv tonight. Cheers

    That it is, but typically when I'm camping the only thing my battery power will be used for is cooking and at most the 2 fridges which will be full of cold stuff and at night. I usually just have a headlamp for light and dont use much else. so even if I used 50% for cooking I'd still have enough for everything else with no charge for a couple of days. What's pulling power on the shower you have ? just the pump ? Have you joined the induction cooker crew yet :) ?

    I also own a Taste The Difference 2 L air fryer I picked up at JB HiFi for $50.00. I’m out camping now and using that air fryer to save on battery. I’m cooking a frozen sausage Roll. Used to take me apx 2 hours to cook in my travel buddy using apx 20 amps. My little air fryer I picked up for $50 takes 20 minutes to cook the same sausage roll from frozen and cooks it a lot better. Consuming the same amps as my Travel Buddy. I know which one I prefer to cook with now. Like I said before. I don’t use my travel buddy anymore.

When this happens I just swing by a supermarket on the way and I'm ready to go without having to load up the vehicle with everything I need. Plus I'm hopeless at forgetting things behind. this stops that, as its always there. That and this isnt my daily driver, so it's set up for its purpse
