What waffle mix do you prefer? That's probably more important than the
waffle maker. Mixing my own ingredients in the early morning hours just
doesn't work.
I use the vintage Joy of Cooking recipe. I can make a batch of batter
and keep it in the fridge for at least three days. I have a 1965
revision of JoC that I get this recipe from. It calls for separating
the eggs and beating the whites to fold in. I add a tablespoon of
vanilla per batch and the results nearly match Waffle House. I tried
substituting half and half for the milk, and the results were fluffier,
but not enough to justify the calories.

One thing I forgot to mention, don't use the recipe in the new Joy of
Cooking. They changed the recipe, and the results are very bisquick
like, which I don't care for. Those waffles are very heavy.

_Which_ new Joy of Cooking?
There was the first one with Ethan Becker's name added to it (which I
don't much like) and the most recent one (which is excellent), having
most of the best recipes from the late 60s/early70s version, plus
updated ones.
