12v or 220v (110v) microwave?
Hello,
what would you suggest me to use on my sailboat - 12v or 220v (110) microwave?
I am about to fix one but hard to decide which one will be more practical for a long journey…

I think once you shop for one you will know the answer is a 120V AC unit

As Sailorboy said, you will find 110V AC most cost effective. You will also find that inverter microwaves are most efficient [vs. the older magnetron tube technology…]

Best wishes finding the unit you need.

Cheers, Bill
