I'd like some real world comments, nothing scientific or theoretical, about using the Webasto X100 diesel cook top. Perhaps someone who's used it in more than one country.
I know about propane: fast, room heat + humidity.
Just used an induction cooktop with pot of water simulating cooking rice: boiled in 5min, simmered for 25 more min; no room heat; used 30A.
Next on x100: boiled in 20 min, simmered for 25 min; immense amounts of room heat, not much humidity!
(note: the slave burner was plenty hot to also cook on)
My summary: x100 would take 20 min to make water even for coffee and make a lot of room heat; cooking a meal for an hour would be more room heat. I'm trying to like the x100 if someone can elaborate on the happiness factor of the cooking part.
I know about the altitude, complexity, cost, etc. Bypassing these issues, I'd rather hear about how one likes/ copes with the cooking, being in the kitchen with the heat, etc.
