BT-180T1 Built-in Induction Hob
The BT-180T1 is a compact built-in induction hob for counters that need 1800W rather than a 3.5 kW commercial cooker. The square 29.7 × 29.7 × 8 cm body and separate control panel let the glass sit in a buffet, pantry, or display counter while the controls stay reachable.

Product overview
The spec sheet lists a glass hob, plastic body, separate control panel, LED display, sensor touch control, 220–240V 50/60Hz, 1800W output, 60°C–240°C, and electronic overheating and overvoltage protection. That combination is closer to a built-in service hob than to a 5 kW restaurant cooker. Better IH Malaysia specifies the BT-180T1 for hotel breakfast counters, compact commercial pantries, and light commercial lines that still want a proper cut-out hob instead of a portable cooker.

Dimensions
The BT-180T1 measures 29.7 x 29.7 x 8 CM (length × width × height). Use these written dimensions when planning a counter cut-out, table space, or plant-room layout. Confirm the finished opening, cable entry, and ventilation gap with Better IH Malaysia before fabrication.
Installation type
Installation type for the BT-180T1: Built-in. It belongs with Built-In Induction Hobs.
Built-in / drop-in. Cut the counter for a 29.7 × 29.7 cm hob, route the separate control panel, and connect to 220–240V. Provide ventilation under the 8 cm depth. A 1800W load is lighter than the 3.5 kW cookers but still needs a correct circuit.
Suitable applications
The BT-180T1 is a built-in hob for lighter commercial and buffet work, not a 5 kW wok station.
- Hotel breakfast and buffet counters
- Built-in pantry and show kitchens
- Cafés installing a drop-in 1800W hob
- Food-display counters that need on-counter cooking

Frequently asked questions
Is the BT-180T1 a commercial 3.5 kW hob?

What does “separate control panel” mean?
The controls are not all on the glass. A separate panel with LED display and sensor touch is used, which helps when the hob is set into a buffet or display counter.
What are the BT-180T1 dimensions?
29.7 × 29.7 × 8 cm (L × W × H).
Does the BT-180T1 include warranty in Malaysia?

Can You Use Normal Cookware on an Induction Hob?
“Normal cookware” is not one thing. If a magnet sticks firmly to the base, it will usually heat. Round woks, aluminium pots, and glass need a different answer.
Built-In vs Tabletop Induction Hob
Built-in sits flush in a cut-out. Tabletop sits on a table. The right one is whichever matches the furniture and the electrical plan you actually have.
