How much battery power does an air fryer use

Can I ask how you got 306Ah from your 280Ah battery?
We fitted the same 280ah battery a few months ago, the BMS reports 299ah when charged. I guess either the battery is over specified relative to the sales/marketing info or the BMS is still sorting itself out or not quite accurate - take your pick…
 
Had an upgrade by Offgrid Power Solutions last year:
Swapped 80Ah lead acid for 280Ah Lithium
Upped solar from 100w to 275w
Had 1200w inverter fitted
Had B2B fitted

Now checking out some of our ‘gadgets’ to see what they use, so for anyone that wants to know:

900w air fryer
200 degrees for 10 minutes
Used 10Ah of battery 👍

i.e. Battery fully charged was reading 306Ah and after the above test it was reading 286Ah.
So as a rough guide, the air fryer uses 1Ah per minute at 200 degrees.

Hope this is helpful.
We have a 900 w fryer , 150 ah battery ,170 w solar , use it mainly at lunchtime ,battery recharged by solar in couple of hours , leaving sufficient for telly in evening ,bugger all this maths haha!

That's good, all the time there is sunshine. When there isn't, the battery will not charge sufficiently and you will enter 'battery anxiety' a common ailment for motorhomers...... 😀
 
It arrived earlier, still to unbox.

We have lots of Ninja devices in the house that we use constantly, although they are higher power hence the lower power smaller unit for the MH.

This looks good for use in the MH being lower wattage and will make life simpler and able to run off the leisure batteries, and soon to have lithium.

At the price point and interest free over 3 months it's a no brainer. The interest free is helpful if like us are mortgage free as it maintains a credit rating.

It’s definitely a good buy. We’re on a learning curve here - don’t know a Ninja from a Turtle😉. Be interested to know what you think of it. Maybe worth a punt at £50 tho. 👍

Which one have you got Lenny?
 
Our airfryer draws just shy of 85A when its on it heating cycle and about 5ish in between. We have a Roamer 230AH Lifepo4 battery.
Having only 100w of solar we doubled up on the dcdc chargers (2 x Victron Orion XS) as we tend to move on every 2-3 days.

This one in the Motorhome

Looks exactly like the Asda one I have ,just different badge 😅. I bet they all come from the same factory in china,glad I got mine before the price goes up 🙈.

Cheers Cris 🍻

Price is low at the Moment I paid £35 for mine.

Bought this in Spain: Mellerware Crunchy 1000w 3.5l
It has worked very well so far, low wattage but will take longer to heat up I'd imagine than a higher-wattage air fryer. Ideal for me as my inverter is 1500w. Not sure if you can get them in the UK if anyone was interested.

All this is very informative. We have not tested our 12/2000/80 Victron inverter/charger yet. Got 210ah from 2 x lithiums and 185 solar up top and B to B.
Just bought a quest 1500w multi function cooker (£22) to go with the Quest 800w toaster and 800w kettle SO will be VERY interested to see how things go 🤞.
Might have a dry run before we go. 🥴

Just to follow up on this.

We had Lithium fitted yesterday, a Fogstar300Ah. By OffGrid Power Solutions nigelivy RogerIvy c/w relevant bits that make it work. As I said to the boys I'm not a sparky so don't try to bs me with thinking they are clever working with something you can't see or black magic as electrickery is otherwise known as. Great banter and a great pair of knowledgeable guys, highly recommend them and their black magic ways.

After a horrendous journey home after going via Costco to get a Red Cross parcel assembled for daughters return to Uni later today. Then filling the Gaslow bottles at a served AutoGas station at Longmore Farm https://www.portablegas.co.uk/ (why fart arse about when you just pull up and pay whilst the bottles are filled). Then a road closure on the A33 and diversion that took 90 minutes. Tried out the Cosori air fryer on the driveway to do crispy bacon to go in dinner rolls. 6 minutes at 170, job done. In time I will get up to speed with the FogstarApp and bore everyone to death with the power consumption (I have a life outside Apps), but it works, is quick, but more importantly delicious.

The Fogstar app isn’t great. They keep saying there’s a new one coming but they’ve been saying that for well over a year. The big problem with the app is it shows you every Bluetooth device within a 1 mile radius (I exaggerate) including phones, TV remotes, headphones, etc., so it’s a pain to find your battery in the list. Try other apps such as Overkill Solar which only shows batteries and remembers your battery.
 
You must all have big kitchens in your motorhomes. I can’t image where an air fryer would fit in our kitchen or where we’d store it on the move.

Have any of you watched this?

There’s usually LPG available at Bellinger Service Station at Grove, just outside Wantage. But you do have to fart arse about yourself.

We don't take an air fryer but have a thermal cooker and when not in use it lives in an old picnic cool bag in the garage which protects it, in use it is also put in the bag so it has a bit more insulation to keep the contents hot longer, not sure if it needs it but we don't then need to store the bag separately.

The Cosori is quite small 👍

I store our Cosori under the dinette table. I modified the table to remove the unneeded swing out extension and to put a new leg nearer to the wall to give more leg room under the bit of the table we use. The leg prevents any movement though I don't think it would slide around anyway.

Our air fryer lives in the space above the fridge, where the oven would be if we had one, together with the coffee machine. I put a couple of foam blocks to keep them from moving around.
 
We run a 900watt airfryer ex asda £19.99.
It runs great and draws approx 85 to 90 amps whilst heating up .once up to temp and just the fan runs it's down to 3 amps but I wouldn't say that was a 50% cycle.
As the controls are clockwork it runs on my non sine wave inverter. As does the kettle and 800w microwave.
We have recently added a small swan slow cooker which runs below 300watts..
We have 500aah lithium and 580watts solar plus a portable panel 180 watts when we ate pitched up for a few days.
