Shouldn't we have faster microwaves by now giving out a few kW?* They
were invented decades ago.


High power microwaves (1MW) are used in industry in for example ore
extraction/rock pulverizing.
1MW into a cup of water is not pretty, explodes the water contents and
breaks the cup.


I don't need a MW, but the usual 600W to 900W in domestic ovens is
pitiful.* What's wrong with 2kW?


They do not trust you poms, most of our small domestic microwaves are
1000,to 1200 watts
