So a regular microwave turns the magnetron on and off for varying periods of time. Like if you wanted a minute at 50% power, it might turn the magnetron off for 10 seconds, then on again for 10 seconds etc to get 50%.
An inverter would apply 50% less power, but it would be constant power not intermittent. Sort of like PWM if you’re familiar with that?
Sorry. Not great at explaining it!

True. Unless you spend the extra money and get a microwave with an inverter.

Seems that way. Really unfortunate. Imagine being so upset about a game you have to run around and try and ruin it for everyone else.
