Seems like a good price ends tonight so I'd click and collect if you want it as it won't be this price tomorrow. Portable ovens seem to go for around $40 on eBay. Would be great for camping or an emergency kit!

Agree but it's still cheap. Too bad most camping sites prohibit open fires. With the latest goings on with the terrible bush fires I don't blame them :/
One of the great things about camping is cooking on a wood/gas/etc fire.
you can do that at home…
well this way your meal can be cooked by the time you get there…
if you are single, you can have a hot meal as soon as you get home from work…
im sure there would be some kind of safety warning that advises against cooking a pot of soup on your dashboard whilst driving.
Did someone say meals on wheels??
Maximum power is 120w. I've owned lightbulbs with more cooking potential.
Pass.
It is only $15 and i'm sure it is not intended for cooking a baked dinner for 6 people??
There are reviews on the DSE site from actual users fro those interested.For: Hot Dog - 5 minutes, Rice - 30 minutes, Grilled Cheese Sandwich - 7 to 10 minutes each side, canned food - 20 minutes, baby food - 3 to 5 minutes
I don't think you can get much more then 120w without hooking it up directly to your car battery…
So I take it your other light bulbs are encased in an airtight container designed to cook? Obviously I'm just having a go but I think 120w can do quite a lot when encased. Concentration of heat is the key here not watts
According to DSE review < 1 hour cooking for chilled. Decent amount of fuel goes in to 100 km, and one can imagine doing loops through the burbs. Although it would be ideal x city.
2 McChicken, 3 soft serve, $5, usually does me good.
You can enjoy the results of your culinary excellence while waiting for the RACQ/RACV/NRMA, etc to come and jump start your car again afterwards.
Leave the engine on.
Good idea, bake some spuds in foil on the engine, while you wait for your steaks to cook on this stoke!
this is truckers or for long road trips. it work real well i have one. i love it for long road trips
this is truckers
hmmm…
Why?
Why not?
Well, you would need an adapter for one, and that only outputs 65W.
It was more of a "Why" at the "LOL" part, though.
Why ?
For anybody interested (truckies, tractor drivers without a 12 volt option I suppose), there is a 24 volt version of this stove kicking around. Jaycar had it up until last year and a quick search shows it's still on their Kiwi site for $NZ23. My suggestion is to go on holiday and then use it as a piece of carry-on luggage on the way back. Enjoy curious expressions on the faces of customs officials . Possibly end up on 'Border Security'. Possibly end up in jail for importing junks of cooked Hobbit.

I guess it might be useful for someone who wanted to avoid being outdoors and cook inside a truck/tent.
