Another vote for gas from me. I too do the flask full of boiling water thing. It’s the cheapest and most reliable way I’ve found plus as somebody else said you can warm some food up with it if you get caught out somewhere foodless [emoji4]How you going to manage that if you aint got any ■■
Yeah, good point!
Two pages on a kettle and your a experience driver by the way that’s your words the mind bogies and your also short of money to do it right and at the same time you tell every sole who asks not to deprived themselves if starting out of having what they need
The mind boggles at some people
Gas stove kettle, and fill a 0.5 litre flask with a push button top with just boiling water first thing, pre-heat the flask first with half a cup of boiling water swilled around then tip it out and then fill it with the rest of freshly boiled water after.
If I was low or out of flask water during my run I’d sometimes call into an MSA or TS and ask them to fill it up for me, never had a refusal, otherwise I’d just pull over and in 5 mins I’d have boiled more to fill it and my thermal mug with a fresh brew while I was at it.
I had an electric kettle once and that too melted the plug and blew the fuse, binned it then for the above method.

again, probably caused by the wires not being tightened up in the plug. They are not put together that well when made and should be checked before and after the first few uses of the kettle. My first one also burnt the plug so i binned it. Bought a new one and took the plug apart, tightened the screws that hold the wires and it has lasted two years so far with periodical re tightening.

…Ok thanks for your contribution, but you should do what I do…If I see a thread that I know will not interest me …I don’t read it 
…and certainly don’t contribute to it.
However as you have contributed I will address your comment.
Where did I say I was short of money to do it right exactly?
On the contrary I’m trying to do it right by buying the best available kettle (ie not depriving myself) both in quality and either12 or 24 v performance, and wiring it up as safe as possible, and asking advice on here to that effect, which incidentally I thought was the idea of a forum, …but hey maybe I’ve got that bit wrong eh?
The mind boggles at some people.
There is only one way to get what you want and that’s doing it the right way and spending money it don’t take a brain specialist to know that. what do you think is better 12 or 24 now how hard can that be
Spend the money and do it right

Are you a bit dim or what?
I’ll attempt to explain (again )
I have had many kettles in the past in 24v, I merely asked if there was any advantage or disadvantage maybe buying a 12v for a change.
Being that they are usually round about the same price, how am I trying to save money exactly…(and even if I was what tf does it matter to you anyway? )
Also I intend to ‘‘do it right’’ by getting the right wiring method that is safest, but I thought I’d already explained that one.
Tell you what mate for someone who aint interested, and is complaining about the number of pages on this thread, you keep reading it and contributing to it.
There is no need to explain it to me its yourself you need to explain it to
As i said there is only one way to do it right but that means you have to spend money and on your post you said it was too costly so your looking for a cheap way of doing it
It’s 2 pages long because someone is a bit slow in getting it let’s see if we can make it 3 pages
And by the way you are cheap. i didn’t know you could still buy a kettle that don’t click off it’s self you must have searched very hard for that to save yourself a fiver in the difference and then spent all day watching the kettle so it won’t burn out
Any person with a bit of cop on knows if you fit the right wiring you can use 12 or 24 and with you making tea while you are driving who is watching the road while your watching your cheap kettle boiling
If you go on buy and sell i am sure you will pick one up cheap for your self
Just trying to get to 3 pages so someone might get what
they need to know, needs a lot of help and if anyone knows where a cheap kettle can be bought let him know he likes the ones that doesn’t switch off on its own because you save money on buying it
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 
Are you for ■■■■ real mate or what?
Jeeeeeez H.
Anyway…update.
Bought one off a car boot sale for 1.50, getting a guy I met in a pub who says he can wire it in for me for a couple of quid and a pint of Guiness…result. 
What can go wrong eh?
So no more posts please …just to ■■■■ matey off.
(although I’m 100% certain he won’ t be able to resist coming back on again. )…3. 2. 1.
Glad to see you didn’t dissapoint with expectations as long as you’re happy that’s all that matters no matter how you cut corners so the two psges was a waste of time for you to grasp it
It’s nice to know people relishing there afortabilaty even if they give the impression they want to help people and deprived themselves there is not a lot of cheep people out there that would do that but you have been in the company of one today
Keep it up bud you don’t meet many people who live as low as yourself

After reading 2 pages of opinions the kettle should have boiled by now

Nope. But the wagon’s on fire…
I got the 2000w/4000w pure sine inverter use it for Microwave once finished I have a 240v caravan kettle 900w and it boils kettle fine. The inverter is about £150 microwave £30 asda kettle £10 I know it is bit to lay out but once you have the gear you can move from wagon to wagon and you will save fortune on buying scoff.

I’ve already got a 24 volt microwave bud, it’s been in about 6 or so different motors in about last 12 yrs or so.
Thinks to himself…‘‘God I hope this is the first post on page 3, just to ■■■■ that nightline bloke off’’
Edit: Dammit! It aint.
