Bill, I had gas for 25years and thought that would always be my preference.
When we bought a house in rural community for our retirement we were faced with
Either all electric or installing bottled gas. After test driving induction with a portable induction unit I was sold,we installed a four "burner" ceramic unit with 2 induction &2 regular (I have a lot of pans
Which are not induction compatible). The induction burners are my go to almost Always, fast and so controllable,easy to maintain a "shimmer" when making stocks and sauce etc.
I am very happy!!
Bacon cooking is always going to permeate the world!
As an aside as an ageing person I feel the induction is a lot safer, can't leave the gas on, and there is usually an indicator which tells you if the surface is hot.
Summary
Safe
Fast
Very easy to maintain the perfect temperature
