Low Power Microwave Ovens

For at least 2 years we have been modifying microwave ovens in our workshop to reduce the power output. The reason for this is that the surge as a microwave oven starts quite often gets very close to the 13 amps maximum allowed by the circuit. Whilst this fine at home if you use the same microwave oven in a caravan or motorhome when connected the campsites electric hookup it will almost without fail blow the hookup trip. A few electric hookups are rated at 16 Amps, most are 10 Amps and in mainland Europe a lot of hookups are still rated at 6 Amps. To overcome this we are able to replace a couple of components inside the microwave which will reduce the output power doen to 500 watts. This in turn reduce the current drawn to 5 amps, well within the rating for even European hookups.



The drop in power is hardly noticeable and makes these small, easy to operate ovens the perfect accessory for your caravan or motorhome.



We sell these in our online shop at www.kitchenwareonline.com . The actual pages are at http://www.kitchenwareonline.com/acatalog/Low_power_microwave_ovens.html



The price quoted online (£59) includes free delivery to mainland UK and VAT.



In the new year we will be advertising these ovens in two of the leading caravan magazines and expect them to be very popular. The price is much better than those available in 'specialist' caravan accessory shops and our ovens include a 2 year return to base warranty.
