12 Volt Oven

Gday,
So are you going to tell us what it is and where you get them or something?????

need more info, where to get one and link or photo would be nice.

I got one of these ones from Dick Smith - called a 12 volt portable stove

They do work nicely but we found we had to rotate things like the four pies and they turn out soggy but when it is chilly.. soggy don't matter.

We got ours from DSE for $25 a few years ago, after hearing about them here in ExOz. They take a while (allow and hour for two frozen pies), but we wouldn't like to travel without ours when in cooler climates. Good for heating last night's leftovers for a hot lunch too.

Jim after reading about your pies at morning tea on the TC Forum and then Mrs Al talking about how great they are we bought one. Dick Smith's job for under $30, 2 yrs ago. Best little gadget this side of the vermin fence. Absolutely beeping brilliant. Hot pies reheated left overs you name it. Heats a pie in less than 20 minutes and too hot to hold or eat.

We take the pies out of the fridge at the first pee break before smoke to defrost a bit and then plug it in.

BTW when the unit is empty it will hold about 3 cans of what ever. If storage is a problem for you. Ours sits behind the drivers seat on a shelf and is easily accessible.

Picture of the stove and other stuff.

I've got one and reckon that it's great. Mine is a Jackaroo brand from K-Mart. I've seen somewhere on the net where someone bought two and cannibalised them to make one that has a heating element in both the bottom and the lid. Seems like overkill as they work fine with the single heating element.

Sorry Jimbo to Hijack your thread,Looks a great unit....

But has anyone tried the 12Volt Kettles (Lion brand for instance),Been meaning to ask for ages but did not want to start a new thread for it !


Cheers

...steamed dimmies ????????????

Hi Jim

You remind me that I did a post here number 39429 on how to make these work better a couple of years ago.

Mines still going strong.

Hot jam donuts :)

"........ a couple of red hot pies for lunch." I heard about one guy near you who goes to red hot pie for after dinner. A couple for lunch seems extreme. ;-))

Good on you Jim,

i don't take mine on every trip but I think I do take it on most trips. A great little unit and when you have a bunch of sprogs, you can make bulk toasties on the go, without having to stop, pop the bonnet and grab the foil wrapped pack off the donk. Although I do make sure I stop to boil the billy rather than use the thermos.....that sounds like doing it my way....oh well....got to keep the driver/cook happy!
