I often shock my servants with less than 75 watts and they cook with urgency. but in fairness is it the low watttage that does that, or is it the threat of higher wattage?

Probably depends on what you're trying to cook.

Ten things successful people do differently...

















just kidding :D

Not sure about cooking in a 75-watt range, but I do know you can operate a phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range.

Yeah, what did you have in mind to cook, and what would you be cooking it in?

Would you have 75W total, or is that just your maximum line wattage? If you could have multiple 75W outputs, that would help a bunch.

A single 75W source could only output up to 256BTU/hr. That's not much. Your average open flame stove burner can output around 30,000BTU. So that should show you how little energy you have to work with.

You can then convert that BTU rating to the area you're cooking in. You want 75-100 BTU per square inch, to cook most food. So you could successfully heat an area the size of a few square inches with with a single 75W source.

Fair enough. What do you expect? This planet has two suns and no women. I've got some..............anxiety.

There is always a hotdog with a Bic Lighter.

YOU can't cook with 75 watts, but Chuck Norris can.

Sunlight and a magnifying glass should do the trick.
