Abstract

An electronic stove incorporates a cylindrical outer shell and a concentric copper heater core. A foil heater surrounds the copper heater core and a heater control PCB carried in the outer shell is connected to the foil heater. A battery assembly has a cylindrical second outer shell carrying a battery pack. A power controller carried in the second outer shell is connected to the battery pack. A connector carriage is engaged between the battery assembly and cylindrical outer shell, extending through the shell of the battery assembly and received in the cylindrical outer shell aligned proximate a lower surface of the first outer shell whereby the lower surfaces of the first outer shell and the second outer shell are in planar alignment. A first contact set of a connector is connected to the heater control PCB. A second contact is connected to the power controller.

Dependent claims

A method for heating of a liquid container and heating system (LCHS) comprising:

receiving an input for a desired heating mode and a temperature setting;
providing electrical power from a battery pack that is operatively connected with a resistive heater that is in contact with a heating core;
measuring battery pack condition before or after the step of providing;
measuring a temperature of one or more thermal sensors connected with the heating core;
entering a dwell phase when a measured temperature of at least one of the one or more thermal sensors reaches the temperature setting;
and
removing electrical power from the resistive heater in the dwell phase.
