It only works on iron or stainless steel dishes. It will not cook onto the surface of the stove. Nothing but the pans will cook. Magnets make the heat. They are wonderful for candy making and cooking in general. With the touch of a button, you can go from simmer to boil.

How much electricity is consumed in induction cooker?

If you go by calculation as well for per minute usage of the power then CALCULATION i as followsIf 2000W induction cooker runs for 1hour Then it consumes 2unit of electricityIf per unit cost of power is @Rs6Then In 1hour total consumption would be Rs12 (2unit for 2000W induction * 6), and for 1minute the cost is 12/60 = Rs0.20/minute or 20paise/minuteNow as I assured you that the cooking time of induction is very less in minute. Example - If 1Liter of milk boils in 4minutes so the cost of boiling 1liter of milk is 4*0.20 = Rs0.80
