    help please - smeg 16kw oven

    thanks for that - but...what if i do use all the induction rings and ovens at once? i quite often use all 6 burners on my gas stove and the oven. the worst that can happen with gas is - well, they all dont work as hot as they should. with electrics, it could start a fire. that worries me...

(we have an...

    the water temp is probably 15 degrees, temp of panel cant be much more than 40 - cant see it being a problem, but you are right, it might cause probs. i was only joking about spraying the inverter by the way (no-one bit! damn!)
