thrift store experiment 2 of 4: toaster oven
mouse.mousetrap.net
I do not think that toaster ovens are very practical in vans. But I had a 20% off coupon which brought the Black and Decker down to $8.79. It was smaller than most and only 1,000w so I bought it.1 It seems to be the model in the inset image except the newer ones are rated 1,150w. {edit: it’s this discontinued model} there were 4 items bought under that coupon: the induction heater, this toaster over, and two other mystery objects to be revealed later. ↩

In the bread machine post I promised more foolish experiments. Here ya go, I run a toaster oven offgrid with solar so you don’t have to!

Bonus content: I derated the oven’s wattage using a harbor freight triac.
