😀🚲<p>The 11yo is now regularly cooking their own pasta with the <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/induction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>induction</span></a> hob, and wow is that a lot less for a parent to worry about than the hot electric stovetop or an open gas flame (it's still scalding hot water though, make sure they know how to manage it.) There is even a timer setting so it just turns off if you forget. Also, I highly recommend raising a self-feeding child 😌</p>

This is the KMDA 7774, manufactured year 2018. A nice cooktop with integrated extraction fan and flexible cooking zones.

After disassembly, soldered all contact surfaces of the conductive rubber buttons residing under the glass, snapped-in on the <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/PCB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PCB</span></a>. Had to snap each button off, and they were many! SMD solder iron too small for proper heat, but a regular sized WTB tip on the Weller station at some 400 deg C worked fine, using a desoldering pump to remove superfluous solder. Each pad is a via and even if looking pristine (no fog on the PCB, no visible oxidizing) it was enough resistance to become faulty. Believe this to be <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/conductive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>conductive</span></a> sensors and that the via size and/or thickness was wrongly designed.

deewani<p>I had forgotten just how faster an <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/induction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>induction</span></a> stove can be. At the rental I would put the water on, go empty the dishwasher, assemble all the things to make my french press iced “latte”, go start some early morning laundry. etc while I wait for it to boil. with induction you need to have your grounds ready immediately lol. I haven’t timed it but for an 8 oz french press I probably use 6 oz water and it takes maybe 20 seconds instead of 10 minutes…Had to break my habit, lol, took a while.</p>
