Was looking for a microwave and discovered this cheap Kogan beauty that will generate more power than you put in (check product specs if link doesnt work).

I thought I could only find products with specs as awesome as those on ali express.
Input Power: 1450W
Output Power (Convection): 2300W
Kogan has found the key to limitless energy
You mean… an engine powered that's by whining on the Internet about their products?!
limitless
Only when used according their acceptable usage policy.
Kogan Microwave with built-in fusion reactor.
this happens a lot especially with audio equipment
eg. i can buy a receiver that is 5 channels of 100w sound and yet the thing only draws 300w?
Power that you put in is in electrical power while Power that you put out is in cooling/heating capacity.
They are different. This happens all the time with all refrigeration/heating appliances. Check on any airconditioners spec if you don't believe me.
example fujitsu split ac:
http://www.fujitsugeneral.com.au/product/213/asta07jec-cooli…
Cooling Capacity (Watts)2100
Input, Cooling (Watts)520 (average)
Input, Range (Watts)250-1270 (min-max)
more info see:

and scroll down to "How can the Capacity Output be greater than the Power Input?"
Right, except in this case, the microwave has 3 modes of operation at differing power levels, and the input power is the average of all 3
Output
Microwave: 900 +Convection: 2300, +Grill: 1100W = 4300/3= 1433w
More importantly, is this microwave any good?
I am ashamed that I'm an electrical engineer and I don't get it!
the maths is simple
if device is 40% efficient (which is common for a tv or amp, microwave etc.) and it can draw a max of 100w well then at best, it will output 40w
the rest is lost in heat, light etc. etc.
I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often. 'Power' can be measured in so many different ways that manufacturers always take the best numbers for their situation and then fudge them a bit more. Usually I think they stop short of this just because double think can only be pushed so far.
