 The Instant Pot Duo mini 3qt appears to hold greatest market share among the small "pots".  It pulls 700w while actively heating.((or less, some report <600w on simple MSW inverters))  It is reported to run correctly off both 1000w inverters, both MSW and PSW.((PSW might be better for efficiency and longevity -- secessus)) The Instant Pot Duo mini 3qt appears to hold greatest market share among the small "pots".  It pulls 700w while actively heating.((or less, some report <600w on simple MSW inverters))  It is reported to run correctly off both 1000w inverters, both MSW and PSW.((PSW might be better for efficiency and longevity -- secessus))

   * sufficiently-large inverter, probably ≥1000w for the 700w mini.  Pure Sine Wave preffered to protect the electronics, but it appears to run ok off MSW. Solar generators with capacities ≥1000Wh typically have internal PSW inverters capable of running 1000w but do check the specs.    * sufficiently-large inverter, probably ≥1000w for the 700w mini.  Pure Sine Wave preffered to protect the electronics, but it appears to run ok off MSW.
