3.7kW for the main element.
Also, why would it be less efficient? Due to the distance?
- Tuna-Fish 3y agoNote that the 3.7kW element can only provide all that to a single vessel if it covers the entire area of the element. The resistive element submerged in the water dumps very nearly 100% of energy into the water. The stove heating the kettle has many more sources of loss, but mostly that it first heats a piece of metal, which is not fully submerged in water.
- the_mitsuhiko 3y agoIn theory, in practice the induction heating on a regular pan is faster than my kettle by almost three times. YMMV on type of kettle and induction hob used. But it generally means that if you live in the US and you have an induction hob, there is absolutely no reason to buy a kettle.
- rightbyte 3y agoYou might want to decalcify your kettle. Edit: Wait. Are you using a frying pan to heat tee water to make it faster?
