[QUOTE="imhotep, post: 27663059, member: 562115"] No way I am a genius... although there are a lot in here. :P The main differences are as listed in the video above. Infra-red cookers has been in existence for a long time. In fact, the first one was by Bill Best (Founder of Thermal Engineering Corporation) whp patented the first gas-powered infrared burner in the early 1960’s. These were used in factories and industries such as tire manufacturing plants and large ovens used to dry vehicle paint. Bill later came with a domestic version with some BBQ products. However, the real affordable ones came in after 2000, when the patent possibly expired. Infrared cooktops are made from quartz infrared heating lamps, usually surrounded by radiant coils to emit even radiant heat. Induction cooktops as you know works by induced eddy currents in the cookware. So your cookware should be made of magnetic material. Here's the scientific take based on real experimentation. "Experiments are conducted with both pot and pan in order to evaluate the heat-up time, self-cooling time, overshoot, cooking efficiency, and energy cost of each type of cooktop. Results show that the induction cooktop is considerably energy-efficient than the infrared one. In detail, the maximum cooking efficiency for the former is 98.8% (in the case of using a pan with 0.5 kg water) meanwhile that for the latter is only 63.81% (in the case of using a pot with 5 kg water). Moreover, the heat-up time of the infrared cooktop is significantly greater; for instance, its maximum heat-up time is 60% higher than that of the induction one. Additionally, the estimated annual costs for the induction cooktop is found to be 14.04% lower compared to the infrared one." HTH.. [/QUOTE]
