10000mAh Rechargeable Battery with 90-Minute Heating
The box runs on a built-in 10000mAh battery that the manufacturer says takes 3.5 hours to charge fully and provides up to 90 minutes of heating time, enough for one meal per charge. For a cordless food warmer, battery capacity is the whole proposition: there is no outlet backup, so once the charge is gone the box is just an insulated container. Battery life can vary: one unit gave close to two years with enough charge for two reheats, while another lost capacity sharply after five months of daily use and stopped turning on at six months. Anyone who forgets to plug it in overnight is left with a cold lunch and no way to heat and charge at the same time, since the device cannot be charged and run a heating cycle simultaneously.
