That's what I used to do, but since going induction, the hob heats the
water faster than the kettle.


I cannot really see how that can be, if the Kw rating are the same. A
kettle is as near as matters delivers 100% of the energy direct into the
water, as the element is submerged directly in contact with the
contents. An induction hob has losses, the heat is also wasted heating
the container, then the contents.


Easy, kettle typically 2kw, ring on induction hob typically 3.5kw and above.
So they are not the same kw rating.
