Opinions on induction heater wanted

[tabrewsco]

I'm looking to put something in a room in my basement that will enable me to boil 3-5 gallons. Does anyone know how well, if at all, something like this would work? Thanks.

No technical data at all so no way to tell. If it isn't 240 V the answer is probably it won't work though. I do 3 gallon all grain on stove top and getting 4+ gallons of water to boil on my GE electric is about at the range of what I can do comfortably.

Cheaper on Amazon but even the manufacturer's site doesn't give any help on wattage and you REALLY need to know that. http://www.circulon.com/cs/Satellite/Infinite+Circulon+Induction+Burner+with+Bonus+4+Quart+Saucepan/mProduct/1162475169828/circulon/1165434611163/mProduct/CookwareDetailEcomm.htm

Did find one source that said it is 1500W. Pretty much what you would expect for a consumer grade hot plate. I wouldn't even try 3 gallons on it to be honest.
