Alcohol Stoves - Page 6

Got it today and had a chance to test it out. What a cool little stove!

It took about as long to boil a pot of cold water as my canister stove it felt like, but a whole lot quieter, lighter, and cheaper. You could probably move a ton of these on the ultralight backpacker forums, especially for the price.

Thanks again!

Here's mine in action making morning tea at the SolDuc campground.

Note to self: Don't grab the handle of the coffee cup after making hot water. The burned finger is healing nicely after 3 weeks.

Hey Shady, what a great tool. Got mine in the mail, very quickly I must add, and ran to the garage to test it out. Works just as advertised and went straight into the bike camp pack. Totally awesome. I dug them out and showed some friends and suddenly I lost the two I just got. (Knew I should have shook 'em down before they left.) I guess now
I'm on the order for two more!!
Keep up the great work

American Ingenuity at it's best. THANKS

Bumpity-bump. Got a box full all made up and ready for new homes.

Just what I was looking for.

PayPal ready to be sent for 2.

Maybe I missed it but, is it $7 + $7 + $2 = $16 for two or $7 + $2 x 2 = $18 for two?

Have you given any thought of making one that is just enough larger or smaller, that you could put one inside the other?

A smaller one might work very well for simmering, just a cup of tea/coffee, or heating a small can of soup.

I would be very interested in another set of smaller ones if you do this.
(and maybe the larger, but space Is an issue)

Thoughts?

Shanddy,

I am extreemly satisfied with your stove. The workmanship is extreemly good as well as the way your stove works. In fact it works so well that we are takingi it, as our only stove to Peru for 6 weeks back packing.

This summer I used it on multiple mc trips and found it to work well on each trip. It boils water in a couple of minutes using a titanium pot and HEET. I have not tried any other fuel. Our last back pack trip lasting three days, using a half bottle of heat doing two meals a day for my wife and I with no problems.

Thanks for a great product and fast shipping

Wow I am very humbled. Tell you what, if you PM me your mailing address I'll send you another stove for free, I just want a picture from some mountain in Peru with my stove being used. Deal???

PayPal sent for a second stove.

mpanther · 10-30-2009, 10:24 AM

Got mine yesterday, great stuff!
and not as big as i expected. they are actually fairly small.

Question about putting out a bit less heat. for simmering and the like.

what about making some with 8 holes instead of 14?
would that make the flames to long or would it work as a bit less BTU's and longer burn time? this might be a way to have a boiling stove and a "keep warm" stove.

Just a thought.

Good idea. Next time I run stoves I will try this and let you know.

can you not just sell a round piece that covers half the holes and potentially covers a bit of the top to reduce the size of the hole on top?
turning it could even reduce the flame by blocking a part of the holes on the side?

and sell another that covers all but 4 holes for an even smaller hole on the top?

voila! works for older and newer stoves!

if you need a tester let me know ;)

I'll bet one ring could be made to do this job, maybe with three or four different heat settings.
