i thought about this based on some comments that were made in another thread referencing losing power, during a cook.
so i thought i'd bring up something that i noticed during the break in period of the 575. with the house doing it's normal thing of around .2-.3 kW draw i fired up the 575. i watched the power bump up to a whopping .8kW. i was surprised it was so low, i expected a much harder draw.
right now i have the dish washer running and we're pulling 1.5kW, the washer/dryer barely pull that much with both running for example.
so anyway, i was surprised that the grill pulled so little power in comparison to other appliances we use every day and don't even think about power draw. my dyson heater fan thingy? it's draws twice as much power as the house furnace pulls, so we weren't saving any money running those things.
