Hi,
I've just cleaned up this page; I hope it's now somewhat decent. I'm sure it still needs some work, but as I'm still a relative newbie, I'm not so sure what else to add. I also think that several of the stubs that this page links to could also be deleted, but I'm not about to do that just yet. Sentinel75 07:01, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

The page states "drawbacks include the fact [...] if an induction cook-top is installed in a home and the owners wish to move, a choice must be made to either take the whole induction cooking set with them, or leave it all behind." How is that different from any other cooktop? Alephone.

[edit] Definition of Induction Heating

Definition as it is on the page is not accurate. Beside of metals other materials may be heated (graphite, molten solts, oxides, carbides etc. as well as ionized gases - plasma). I can provide more accurate definition that covers all cases of induction heating. Please advise. Nemkov

Agreed. Induction heating can, in principle, be used with any highly coductive material. This should be changed/updated. Lesotho 02:08, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Photo is not of induction cooktop.

The photo appears to be of a conventional glass/ceramic cooktop, and not an induction cooking surface. An induction cooking surface will not glow, and in fact, won't even get hot without an appropriate container placed on it. D3z (talk) 20:35, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

I used to work in induction heat-treatment application development and modelling for a decade - so i know something about it - but I have been out of the game for a decade - so could be said to be independent.

I would like to add something here - how should i go about it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.166.123.34 (talk) 02:20, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
