I have (and like) gas. I’d happily switch to induction but would never voluntarily go back to resistance electric.

If you look carefully for the portable induction burners that are rated for ~1.3 kW, they are excellent. You can get them for about $100 and they would replace about half your cooktop usage. Much better for low temperature work and boiling type work.

We have one and it’s great for low-and-slow unattended cooking. We don’t use it for regular/daily cooking because we just don’t have the space to give it, but agreed that it would work technically for a lot of our cooking if it took up space where the cooktop is or if our kitchen was bigger/had more countertop space.
