Hi,

Do any of you use portable style electric cooker/hobs to heat your hlt/boiler? If so any recommendations?

Thanks,

Ive got a buffalo 3kw induction
Not used it yet but they seem the popular choice and about the max you will run on a 13amp socket

3rd vote for the Buffalo. A superb bit of kit, and I think the most efficient style of electric hob by far.
