Take pictures as you pull it apart and note what goes where,
I would think a cig plug would get warmer than a merit plug
Maybe try the merit plug first ??

Theres only two wires. Nothing to forget in there. I have a 30w peltier here i considered installing in the top half so it heats the top too. Then its more an oven.

Bloody good idea. Plenty of room for it too. Just took the two aluminium trays out and all there is on the top is a piece of batt type insulation, same with the bottom one although that has the connection to the peltier.
Might look at this one:

and maybe improve the insulation a bit.....

60w is too much i reckon. I have one here and it get fricken hot, really hot. I think a 40 w pulls 4amps too. I had it written down somewhere...

Did some measurements on it using a 12v battery (no engine running). It pulls 13 amps for about the first minute, it then settles down and pulls between 7 and 8 amps and pretty much stays there. I'll try it for an hour and see if it varies much. It would be interesting to find out which peltier they put in it as it seems results vary a lot, on some (like mine), the original wiring gets very hot, others don't...
I'm going to power this oven via a timer, sort of set and forget. Looking at something like this.....

Its only a small Peltier I reckon. The 40W one I have here is twice in size. Unless you can get long and narrow Peltiers. As they use something long a narrow in these ovens.
Does the timer make a "ding!" when it runs out of time? Lol.

Yeah it's a long narrow one but it still pulls a lot of current, after running it for 70 mins, it was still pulling 6 amps which at 12.2v is approx 73w. Assuming it is a Peltier as there doesn't seem to be a cold side and there's no fan to get rid of the cold air.
Nor sure if the timer makes a ding but it has a pretty blue led......
