    I just modified my forge burner to use it.

    Hot enough to weld steel is more than hot enough to make a good stir fry.

    Annoying when it rains though

      So the truth is, it’s not even a gas range you care about. It’s a completely different specialty appliance. Which kind of goes back to my point that electric ranges are flat better than gas ranges – you, a self-avowed gas-lover, still needed to design a custom appliance to cook the way you wanted to because your gas range couldn’t do it.

      And that’s the short of it. Electric ranges are hugely easier to clean, have better temperature stability, heat pans hotter and do it faster, and don’t heat the room or fuck with air quality. And that’s not even getting into the unequivocal superiority of electric ovens over gas ones.

      Still, you should try an induction wok hob if you get the chance. Sounds a lot safer than your solution.

        I don’t have a gas stove friend, I rent.

        I had no option but to rig one up. lol

        I still disagree with you about gas stoves, I much prefer them and their instant response.

        I might just not have had a good electric range yet.

        I do have an induction hot plate though and it is infinitely better than my 220v stove, other than needing special pans.

        At the end of the day, what I care about most is not telling people what they have to do though.

        Edit: there to their
