This question is for all of the great cooks out there. Can U run the A/C unit while cooking in the Convection mode? I have read that in the convection mode that the microwave will produce 25%less heat than in the microwave mode because it circulates air to help in the cooking mode. Anyone have any experience in cooking in the convection mode while running the A/C?
Thanks for your help! ------------- Marshal 2011 R-177 Longview, Tx |

While I measured all of the AC appliances in the 'pod to see their energy useage, I did not measure the microwave in convection mode. I'll have to do that. I do know the A/C uses 1000 watts and the microwave uses 1700, so you are ok using both together when on a 30 amp outlet. Just don't use the water heater electric element at the same time.
