    Your not actually lowering the power, it’s just lowering the duty time.

    Correct, but I think most people don’t think about that.

      This is only the case for cheaper models. There are models with inverters that actually run at lower power.

      I am like original commenter, I gotta turn down the power because my microwave is a deadly lazer (1200 W)

      And in the case of a microwave, it makes almost no difference if you’re running longer than 30s
