Any suggestions on a 1500w digital hot plate / stirrer?

Found some 1000w ones.... but kinda hoping to match the power of the stove, which is typically 1500w. Have had some great success in cooking meals on my digital hot plate with stirrer. Controlling the temperature seems to be key for precise flavor for some dishes, and the stirring really helps with my time management. Though, it would also come in handy in the lab as well. I did find one 1500w, without stirring, though, it was not digital-temp controlled either - it used a 1-9 knob.

I have a good one for you Electra, let me find it...

20L stirring capacity! I would have to see that to believe it. Heating rate on it seems kinda slow though... 6K per minute, which is about 6 celcius per minute.... My little 300w hot plate can heat faster than that. Sort of weird...
