Magnetrons are a lot less efficient than magnetic induction (which most modern electric kettles use). Magnetic induction is about 90% efficient at converting electricity to heat in the vessel, whereas the most efficient microwaves are about 60% efficient at converting electricity to microwaves.
Theoretically it should be the most energy efficient method. You’re transferring all the energy directly into the water molecules, not heating up a container and hoping that heat transfers to the water.
energy efficiency, and most importantly, vibes
But isn’t it more efficient in the microwave, since you’re only heating the water, not the vessel?

So, if you don’t have an induction stove, nor a kettle…?
Yeah. Microwaves are more efficient than most non-induction stoves.
Actually, it has a lot of vibes. About 2 billion of them.
