Battery Powered Popcorn Machine
Is it a battery powered popcorn guru? If so, where can I find it? 3
Thank you very much!!
I did a survey and I can only see where people change the guru to get the battery. I saw one that runs on batteries. The only other thing is an article about a solar powered model from 2 years ago, but I can't see a working model. Popcorn is easy to put on the stove, so why throw away the battery?
Because popcorn needs a lot of heat to heat up the popcorn core enough for it to evaporate and explode (which is why popcorn explodes), making popcorn in small, ordinary batteries is impractical. A 12 volt electric motor battery (size 27) may contain enough power to power a useful popcorn, but forget about AA batteries or the like. Some electrical currents are needed to generate enough heat to expel more than 2-3 popcorn kernels. I am not familiar with any commercial device that runs on batteries. However, if you really have such a thing, you would consider buying an inverter that can produce about 2,400 watts, run on 27 (or two) electric motor batteries, and then buy commercial popcorn. It will work. (Of course, charging the battery will be the next plan.)
