Do I need to buy an additional cooker, or can this pot be cooked with electricity?

Yes, it will work on a (single) electric burner, be aware the metal is very thin, the knob breaks easily during shipping (buy from Amazon you can return) this model TG-28C will work on induction burner, while model TG-28 will not. I like mine a lot, because nothing beats table top hot pot on a cold day/night with a friend or two. Some yummy for your tummy. Hope this helps. Best Regards

I believe you can use electricity. I use mine on a small gas burner on my island for a hot pot. I absolutely love it!

Yes, it can. I bought this pot several months ago. It turns out to be a good one at this price. Good use for hot pot!

If the power module were to fail, like being broken or if it got wet, or if you wanted to save the moving parts for some reason; you could run the stove without the power module attached and the stove will still work. The fire won't be anywhere near as hot, but it's possible. There is no reason to save the battery though unless you're worried about constant wear

Hi Hoang, Yes, this cooker is also produced in 220V, though you will have to purchase it outside of the U.S. Due to the voltage differences, this model is not available or imported into the U.S.

it does not need electricity, it is gas. if it has an optional fan it will need 110v. fan is not necessary for normal operation.

Would that I could, but believe it or not, I have never used mine...NOT much of a cooker! Sorry.

You need a slow cooker with MANUAL controls. I must tell you I returned my unit and instead I purchased the Anova unit, because it has a water circulator and can be used with any pot.

Have you contacted Sanyo and asked them? They must sell replacement pots for the cooker.

No, you need a stove-top pressure cooker for canning, electric ones don't reach a high enough pressure.

When the cooker is plugged into the outlet, the cooker is in the warm/heat mnode. There is one button that is depressed to change from warm to cook. i haven't had a power outrage while cooking, so i can't answer the question and my cooker is in storage so i can't do a test. my guess would be that it would go to the warm position, so that you would have to press the button again,.

Sorry, I do not know. I used it only with a normal electric cooking plate. I cannot image anymore to prepare meal without Pressure Cooker.The description mentions the possibility to use induction stoves ("Suitable for all stovetops, including induction; 10-year limited warranty; dishwasher-safe except for pressure lid".

Either one works fine for me! I have an electric stove now, and it's not a problem.

I think the food would burn before the pot would crack. Yes you can cook 2 cups of something but keep an eye on it because there's no timer.

Nope; sorry! I wouldn't recommend it. Just do that separately and then put it in the cooker.

I have never used an electric pressure cooker. Having said that, I use a gas stove and growing up my family used an old style pressure cooker (with a weight on the top instead of a release valve) that is still going strong - Gotta be 50 years old!! So, I would stick with the one I bought (non-electric). In my review I mention a separate lid (glass) for keeping things warm - and I would get that in addition to the press. cooker because it really helps. I use this about twice a week - no complaints AT ALL. I put the bottom half in the dishwasher. I DO NOT put the lid or gasket in the dishwasher.

Theoretically, the only way I can think of to do it would be to put it in a dehydrator overnight. I suspect that for small "home cook" batches, the power cost and labor would be greater than the cost of buying them new.

The beauty of this is that it is 0 watts. No plug- ins. Cook with the inside pot on your stove until the content boils, and put the entire pot in, close the lid and walk away. When I do the beef stew I repeat this process twice and it's done. Think a thermos jar but in a larger scale.

It is made to use with a propane tank, although I believe they make an electric version. It is a very good cooker.
