I've gotten frustrated and just simply tulan using suction cap mounts for cars. They've ruined my dashboard and windscreen multiple times by simply melting under SG's relentless sun.

So finally I gotten one that kiaps on the Rear View mirror! $6.40 nia!

I have used RAM mounts for years. Park in the sun also no problem.

Hopefully this works... in such rainy weather. Time to try and waterproof the shoe and maybe bag. $1.99 worth a shot

I read a local article review of multiple frozen nugget brands. The author declared the winner was dodo nuggets. Found them at ntuc Xtra. 

I bought one pack. I have to say it's a bit better Than freezepak. 

I just use regular oven though.

Induction cooker for round bottom wok from China. Very powerful. I started a fire with the oil. Luckily I managed to switch off and put the cover on to quench the fire. 😁

What’s the current like? 10A at least

It's came with a Chinese standard 3-pin plug which I had to convert to UK. It's rated at 3500W, but I think less than 10A, I didn't measure. Maybe the rating is due to some conversion of power.

But this is the first time I cook. that the oil smoke so much and it catches fire. So later I only use half power. 😁

3500w seems high. Around 14 to 15amps. U might overload if using 13amp socket. Try using 20amp.

Interesting. Unfortunately my slack years are behind me, otherwise I don't mind buying one.

I'm trying to find some info on heating power vs electrical power. They are not the same.

Also, induction cooker is said to be 80% efficient, that means it consumed a lot less current than a standard electrical heating stove or a water storage heater.

So a 3500W induction cooker is not consuming 3500W of electrical power. It would be much lesser.

When I turned on full power for this cooker, it smoked and burnt the oil, started a small fire. But the 13A fuse did not blow, neither was the plug and socket plastic overheated. So I'm still checking the current consumed.

It started with "I just want to cook a couple of eggs"  

I got tired of boiled eggs all the time, stir fried eggs would be nice.

The flat frying pan used too much oil, the stainless steel one sticks to the eggs. Its low sidewall allows food to spill out too easily. Cleaning up is messy and time consuming.

Wok, a 5000 yr old technology came to the rescue. 😁

With modern tech like induction cooker, all you find here are those with flat top locally, why ?

I saw one in Amazon, Nuwave, with concave top. Surely, the Chinese must have it, wok is their technology after all. So I found them in Shoppe. Hopefully, it'll last.

If you are nerd enough can put in a power meter at the socket. Usually the watt indicated is maximum power like ramping up the heat. But I will be careful with them.

Usually if u want induction cooker just make sure the electrician tie the power to 20amp sso at the db. Like those for ur oven.

Buy happycall.  Problem solved.

No need oil somemore.

Ever consider getting those plug in power meter to check the current and wattage consumed? To have peace of mind.
