New tramper question

Hi folks, I’ve been a driver for a fair few years but recently had to take on the roll of a tramper for 2 nights a week. Not bothered about it but I want to be able to sort food out without the usual maccy d and service rubbish.
I’ve got in the MAN I’ve been given, 2 x 24v 360w sockets and a 230v socket 300w behind the seat (although I will have to get an EU adapter as it looks the same as the ones you see in Europe on the walls while your on holiday)

Will any of this suffice for a low microwave it some kind of cooker of some description of do I need to smile at the boss for some sort of power lead from the battery?
Cheers.

You’ll need a power inverter mate, big enough to carry whatever the size of your microwave is.
Mine is big enough to carry everything including a household kettle,.■■■■ those 12/24 v things.

I used one of these when I did what your doing having the odd night outs out here and there.
An electric lunchbox just plugs into cigarette lighter socket.
Long as foods pre cooked ie a ready meal left over stew pasta etc from home.just plug in leave for hours to slowly simmer cook away.
Does take a while to warm food up …
I just plugged it in few hours before I parked up

Or maybe a small.slow cooker as they only use 150 w of power

Thanks for the replies. I definitely need a microwave so I’m going to get an inverter that’s up to the job and get MAN to fit it while it’s in for inspection next. Cheers everyone
