I hope you forgot a decimal point on the 80 amp statement; You would trip the main 50 amp breaker and be in the dark.

We use the stainless Bunn coffee maker. http://www.amazon.com/BUNN-Velocity-...n+coffee+maker Makes 10 cups in 3 minutes. We have tested the warmer and it uses about 4 to 6 amps when on. It does heat water for the next pot and uses an ungodly amount of amps to heat the next pot of water, about 80 amps, but it doesn't last but about 2 to 3 minutes then shuts off. It uses very little to keep the next pot's water hot.
When boondocking we use this http://www.amazon.com/Coleman-5008C7...amp+coffee+pot
We set it on one of these, http://www.amazon.com/GasOne-GS-3000...+camping+stove
I brought one of these to deer camp when they first came out and I was the hit of camp. They make a pot of coffee in about the same time as a mister coffee and IMHO it's just as good tasting.

I was talking amp hrs pulled out of the batteries when on the inverter. It draws 6.93 amps when on the grid to heat the next pot. The warmer draws .61 amps. Sorry I wasn't clear as we measure just about everything being pulled from the batteries now days.
I probably should have just talked about the Coleman Camping Coffee Maker only and stayed out of the electrical portion of this thread.
