A portable cooking device operable by electricity or by a rechargeable lithium Ion battery for use when electricity is or is not readily available.

A method of constructing a water heater includes the steps of providing a tank having a metal interior tank wall and a heat exchanger positioned within the tank, coating the interior tank wall and the heat exchanger with a first layer comprising glass enamel, and coating a portion of the first layer with a second layer comprising an organic polymer to protect the portion of the first layer from exposure to water in the tank.

I live in Florida, when a hurricane hit us, sometimes I wish I had already invented the EJN WATER HEATER and EJN COOKER, and when I watch what hurricane Irma had done to Puerto Rico, and other disasters that I see EJN WATER HEATER and EJN COOKER will be great for, and other countries that have no electricity, EJN WATER HEATER and EJN COOKER is in advantage for all.

A water heater tank has several components formed of a one-piece seamless construction. The water heater tank includes a cylindrical wall with inner and outer surfaces. A helical condenser channel may be formed in the outer surface of the cylindrical wall. The water heater includes a cold water inlet. A cold water channel may be formed in the inner surface of the cylindrical wall in fluid communication with the cold water inlet and the interior volume of the tank.

An enclosure for a water heater can include a cover having at least one body coupling feature and at least one first water heater coupling feature. The enclosure can also include a body detachably coupled to the cover, where the body includes at least one cover coupling feature that couples to the at least one body coupling feature of the cover. The at least one water heater coupling feature can be configured to receive an enclosure coupling feature of the water heater, where the enclosure coupling feature, when received by the at least one water heater coupling feature, secures the body against a tank of the water heater.

A double glass coated steel tank for a high temperature water heater and its method of fabrication is described. The tank is constructed of steel welded parts and fittings are secured to the tank without the presence of sharp edges being formed on the inner surface of the tank not to form any weakness in the composite glass coating to be applied. A first water resistant base coat of cobalt glass enriched with ZIRCON (trademark) is applied to the inner surface and the tank is heat fired at a high temperature in the order of about 1600 degrees F. A second high temperature water resistant glass coat, having a fine gas bubble size not exceeding 10 microns, is applied over the first coat and the tank is heat fired a second time. The composite glass coating thus formed is highly water and corrosion resistant in a water environment of up to at least 190 degrees F.

A smart water heater system (SWHS) for a domestic water system having a plurality of fixtures has a water tank having a cold water inlet and a heat source configured to heat the cold water. The SWHS may also have a mixing valve to blend cold water with the hot water to produce blended water, wherein the blended water is directed to the domestic water system. The SWHS may have a controller in communication with the mixing valve configured to identify which fixture is being used when the domestic water system is drawing water from the water tank, determine an average water temperature utilized by each fixture, and adjust the mixing valve based on which fixture is identified such that a temperature of the blended water is generally equal to the average water temperature for the identified fixture.
