I like this one, but as it's 1Kw wouldn't that trip a 6amp hook up?

Seen a few that low in France..

One way to kill your batteries it will draw around 90 amps, OK if you have a bank of 4 or more batteries even then I wouldn't risk it.

1000w approx 4.4 amps @230v, I say approx as that is apparent power not true power.

This is the one we use, off the inverter. 1000watt and 1.2 litres. Only on for a few minutes doesn't drain the batteries, especially in this sun.

It is not the overall drain on the batteries but the high load that damages them.

Too late perhaps for @LesW, but we now have the small one from Lakeland and have used it on our most recent trip. One fill is enough for 2 cups of coffee. Perfect for our small PVC.

My recommendation..

Swiss Luxx Clear Cordless Caravan Kettle - 1 Litre

cordless , 1kw

When we run the 750w kettle off the inverter we do it when the solar panel is in sun.
The kettle pulls around 62A for a few minutes but the battery voltage never goes below 12v
I have 2 x 95A AGM batteries.
