This induction cooktop works on a 120V outlet and packs a battery inside.

Most induction requires a 240V outlet, but this new cooktop from Impulse Labs has a battery inside that stores up juice for when you want to cook.

This means it will still work when the power is out, but the company plans to make more appliances with batteries to eventually form a “fractionalized home battery backup system.”

The Impulse Cooktop costs $6,000 and should ship later this year.


The Impulse Cooktop has four 9-inch burners with a peak performance of 10 KW. Removable magnetic knobs and an LCD interface add control and an integrated 3 kWh LFP battery adds back-up power.
