Innovation

The stove, re-engineered from the battery up.

A 3 kWh battery, power electronics built in-house, and software that updates over the air. Impulse rebuilt the induction stack so a stove could be more powerful, more precise, and better every year you own it.

Power

More power than any stove. From a standard outlet.

10,000W at every burner

A built-in 3 kWh battery delivers 10,000W per burner - enough to take a pot from ice to a rolling boil so fast all three phases of water show up at once.

The boil test

Side by side against other induction stoves, Impulse boils 10 cups in about 90 seconds. Most induction is limited by your wiring; Impulse is not.

9 ways it beats standard induction

Power, control, silence and more - the differences that come from rebuilding the induction stack rather than buying it from a supplier.

Precision

Set a temperature. Impulse holds it there.

Steady heat vs. steady temperature

Every other stove gives you a power level. Impulse senses the pan through the glass and adjusts power continuously to hold the temperature you set, within 1°F.

Sous vide, without the water

Hold a pan at exactly 135°F and get edge-to-edge medium rare - no water bath, no plastic, no circulator.

The first pancake is perfect

Set the pan once and every pancake comes out the same - including the first one.

Lemon curd, no double boiler

Delicate custards hold at a precise, low temperature right on the burner. No double boiler, no thermometer.

Never burn crispy salmon skin

Hold the oil exactly where the skin crisps and the fish does not overcook.

Designed for real kitchens

Easy to install and built to last.

A year of reliability, in the field

Founder and CEO Sam D’Amico on how Impulse Cooktops have held up in real kitchens - a field service rate now well below the induction industry average - and what was fixed to get there.

Installs on a standard outlet

Impulse runs on a standard 120V outlet, so most kitchens need no new circuit and no panel upgrade. 240V works too.

How durable is it?

The cooktop is put through the abuse a real kitchen dishes out.

Physical knobs, not a touchscreen

Magnetic knobs turn with continuous control from 50 to 10,000 watts - and lift off for cleaning.

    Faster preheating in temp mode

    Temperature mode brings the pan up to its set point faster.

  2. Summer 2026

    A redesigned interface

    A new look and new controls on the cooktop display.

    Watch the announcement
  3. Fall 2026

    Improved “bad pan” handling

    Better behaviour with cookware that isn’t an ideal match for induction.

  4. Coming soon

    Temp probe integration

    Cook to the food’s internal temperature, not just the pan’s.
