     @cjd Gday

     They do a plug in mains one
     and DIY heating one

     Ill look up a power meter

     Its probably going to take 3-4 weeks to get here via the slow boat from Chinnnnnnnnnaaaaaaaa

     Solar Power will be my next thing Ill be looking into in 2023

     Along with Compressed Air for power tools and Ceiling fans

     Along with some Direct Solar powered devices such as extraction fans on the window

     Even if it chews 500-750w
     its worth it for poison free water

     I plan to make a direct solar extraction fan and vent system

     So I can stop using ((( GRID ))) roof fan
     and have a passive air system
     backed up by extracting the hot air outside

     Also Ill be making a portable panel with a 50-100 watt solar panel to recharge

     CB Radio
     Video Camera
     and Laptop

     Adding a windup clock and manual temp guage and maybe a simple low wattage AM/FM/SW radio

     SHTF Solar Comms Panel

     Direct solar distillation might be interesting, save the cost of going from sun to electricity and then back to heat.
     
     Looks like the one in the picture is 750 watts, so running 24/7 that should pull 18Kwh/day - Figure $1.80 to $3.60 per day depending on your local power price.
