Possibly. That’s honestly out of my wheelhouse. Looked up one and it uses 12.4 amps.
In theory there is efficiency at cutting the cooking time down, but that’s starting to get into my most hated subject: math.
Just go by the fact it cooks quicker and the hardest part is adjusting the cooking time. A 1200 watt inverter microwave is a hell of a lot more powerful then a “conventional” 1200 watt microwave, so it’s better to shave 1-2 minutes off it then adjust accordingly if it isn’t cold enough. A pot pie for example has a 7 minute cook time on it, but cooking it for 3:45 in the microwave I use gets it piping hot. 7 would probably be a boiling puck of carbon…
