Wood Gas Camping and Emergency Stoves. Burns twigs, pine cones, pine needles. I keep a bag of wood stove pellets on hand. One bag of pellets will provide cooking fuel for over a month for about $5.

I have 5 of these available, new and in the box. $50 each postpaid in the USA.

Message if interested.

These are great. I am keeping 2 for myself.

They are the same unit. I made a group purchase and am just parting these off at cost. Some buddies did not come through on their end so I am selling those.

Paypal is welcome . IM for details

fuels

are there any stats on comsumption of other fuels (coal) with these stoves?
I have burned wood charcoal in these, works good. I would not burn fossil coal. It burns hotter and would be harder to put out (?). My assumption there is you put in enough fuel to cook a meal or boil water and add fuel as needed. Coal is a different acting fuel. Just my observation.

These units are aluminum. Nicely made. The inventor imports has them made in India. I use them ATVing and they are easy to use and light.

If they're aluminum, I'd be really hesitant to put a hot-burning fuel in there. Hardwood charcoal is almost too hot - I build smelting furnaces that run on it, with an air blast, that exceed 3000F. Cooking fuel ought to be relatively cool, by those standards. Wood is probably best.
