@PenguinMum I was just Googling microwave ovens and found a site that says veggies can be microwaved into crunchy chips in about 5 minutes. I may try that sometime too (although roasting the vegetables in my oven today gave me a nice window of time for playing my guitar). Next time I will try them at your temperature. I'm not good at math either -- I think Google said that 180C is 356F . 
Do you peel your aubergines?
Here is the microwave recipe I found:
5. Vegetable Chips – Turn raw veggies into yummy crunchy chips in the matter of minutes. Slice potato, zucchini, carrot, sweet potato or other vegetables into very thin slices (if you have a mandoline use that). Arrange sliced vegetables on a microwavable plate, drizzle in olive oil, salt and pepper or any other herbs and spices and microwave for five minutes. Check for crispiness – if you want them crispier, continue to cook in 30 second increments.

Bonus tip: to help clean up a microwave cookery blow out, pour two tablespoons of lemon juice and white vinegar into a half filled bowl of water and heat it in the microwave for seven minutes. The process creates condensation giving your microwave a good steam clean. When complete, take a cloth and simply wipe down the inside – it will be squeaky clean.
