SOURCE: How can I find out what wattage my Emerson MW8778W microwave is?

I also bombed out on locating a downloadable manual but the hardcopy is available on eBay here:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/Emerson-Microwave-Oven-MW8778W-S-D-B-Owners-Manual-7_W0QQitemZ320281595945QQihZ011QQcategoryZ159903QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem

The efficiency of microwave oven is ~ 65% so if you will check the back of your unit for the AC line (input power) consumed, you can easily calculate the usable 'cooking' power available.

i.e. If the label states: 115 VAC 10 Amp(eres), this would amount to 10 X 115 = 1150 X .65 = ~ 740 watts delivered to the food.

The magnetrons do age (if not fail first) and their emissions fall with progressive use so a 10 year-old oven won't still give you that ~65% but substantially less.

Hello friend, thank you for your post!
Based off the information you have provided you would like to know the cubic size for your Frigidaire microwave, FMT148GP. The cubic footage of this particular model is 1.4 cubic feet. Hopefully this information is helpful to you. -Matt

MODEL MW543OW, TURN OVEN ON TO REHEAT, OPEN DOOR TO STIR, CLOSE DOOR AND HIT START, NO FAN OR TURNTABLE, LIGHT AND CLOCK STILL WORKS

That would be model MW5430W. but no matter.

I would suspect a bad door switch or door switch mount.

Have an older gaffers and sattler stove with microwave built into top. do you know what wattage the microwave is. tahnk you. [email protected]

Check the manufacturer plate label on your microwave. It may be written like this- KW usually beside the Manufacturer model number.

You could also do a little calculation by checking the voltage and ampage readings. multiply them is going to give you wattage.

Wattage

The output power for model MA-780 was 700 watts, so I'd bet yours is either 600 or 700 watts.
