I got the same one three years ago. I use kerosene in mine because if it gets too cold the paraffin will gel and doesn't work. It smells a little when you first light it, but when it's red inside no more smell. Then when you blow it out it smells a little too. It works great for heating with a small cast iron skillet on top. The extra 4 wicks they give you get cut in half for the 8 replacements needed.
I use one of these in conjunction with a stainless steel stove heater to heat my garage during the winter. Also, you can mix a little paraffin with cooking oil to burn. Save and filter your old cooking oil for use in this.
I have a force 10 (cosy cabin) boat heater that I just purchased of eBay, it's the propane model. There's only four screws holding the gas ring and support to the unit. The plan is, to use this type of heater to heat it, rather than gas, is this similar to what you have done Jerrod? Cheers!
Thanks. I have one for any emergency. I use it safely outside on a raised paving tile. Have used cooking oil. It's free and I'm outdoors, where its meant to be.
After watching this video I bought the same cooker. I used it in the house for 6 hours. The whole house now smells of paraffin, even the cat. It also left me with a headache that's still with me 2 days later. I had it glowing without any flames, it warmed a small room but to use it one should open doors and windows. Okay for a quick kettle of water but no good for warmth.
If you use it in doors use Bio Ethanol, less carbon, which is what caused your headache or use cooking oil as that has even less, if any carbon dioxide. See this video from a crazy but very clever engineer using the same stove for what you used it for: ruclips.net/video/jli2irMYWMo/видео.html
Very high bang per buck. Works extremely well for as simple as it is. An old woodstove lid or round of aluminum as a heat spreader makes cooking easier, but it's cheap and it works well. Just don't move or tip it.
I do have an unhealthy amount of stoves. But that's a different story. Think it's funny when people say it's cheap Chinese and won't last. If they want something to last they'll have to put the hand deeper in the pocket. But these cheep stove's for an emergency. I don't think they can be beeten. Best wishes for the season. Tony
Nice burner, what is your estimate of fuel consumption? A full tank lasts you howlong at a blue flame? Is this an alternative to a woodstove if you wanna heat up a small tent inside overnight? It does seem to radiate heat. What about fumes, does it run on lampoil or kerosine?
I have not taken to much notice of the consumption, it does seem efficient. Like with all burning stoves it will require ventilation and I personally would use, (and do) a co2 detector in the situation you describe. The quality of the stove is reflected in the cheap price. So if it was in regular use it might not last. It's really thin metal. I think really it's perfect for an emergency. Kept under the sink with a bottle of fuel, it won't let you down. I haven't tried lamp oil for cooking but see no reason not to other than price. I do see a lot of people thinking Kero and paraffin are the same. In the UK at least, Kero is ç1and paraffin is c2. Basically c2 is more refined, gives less particulates ( less toxic) and burn's slightly hotter, avoiding soot building on or in the wicks.
@@kuldeep34111 I read somewhere it actually is a lot more than 7 hours, probably 12+ hours with 1 liter burning with a blue flame. There is always the possibility to use only 4 out of 8 wicks, cooking is perhaps just the same if not a lot more efficient.
Hi . Re: - Paraffin Fumes Could I please ask.. I've just bought one and tried it for the first time. Wish I'd seen your video earlier to make it a bit easier! Still.. send to work fine but the paraffin fumes are extremely strong. Any advice, pointers, suggestions guidance from anyone would be very much appreciated . Thank you in advance
paraffin fumes are particularly noticeable especially for anyone not used to it. i expect if you wanted you could use orderless lamp oil. it would cost more than paraffin. i use orderless lamp oil from a church supplier i found on ebay for my oil lamps and it does what it says on the tin so to speak. i think these stoves are best for emergency use as the build quality is a bit cheep. and in an emergency you probably wont care about the smell.
for the money, very good, but does not like draughts, took it with me in me Tramper van, used outside, very slight wind, did not like it, had to us me 96 :)
I recieved one of these in the post today and have tried it out this evening, I have to say I am not in the least impressed, either with the standard of manufacture or the safety of the item, there is no way I would consider using it indoors. It seems to me like a cheap knock off of a better item that is out there somewhere and if I can find what it is a copy of, then I will be buying that instead. I just bought this because it was cheap on ebay so no great loss if it turns out to be the usual Chinese junk. Oh yeah and if you blow it out, best be wearing a respirator as it stinks to high heaven.
I think I was a bit unfair in that comment, it has grown on me and although the paintwork is already coming off it does a good job of being a simple stove and never mind the faff of lighting it, it is quite contollable with the wicks, still definately an outdoor thing though because of the smell.
This can used waste cooking oil mixed with liquor can cook and light or water and battery can mix hydrogen and oxygen at certain ratio can do heat and light
This is the third one I bought. My real problem is switching this stove off.The lever on all 3 stoves were faulty. Do not trust that blowing off story.
@@tonypancaldi7159 Tony, eventually the top of carbon felt gets crusty, just like cotton. The burnt carbon deposits need to be removed just like with cotton, cotton is easily trimmed and is cheap, it also wicks up better than carbon felt from a tank low on fuel. Carbon felt is great on some stoves, like inside the Trangia burners, unfortunately it's not better than cotton in some other stoves. The "forever wick" as seen on another channel, has only done limited testing with a few stove designs, I've had mixed results myself trying carbon felt and also fiberglass rope in some stoves, cotton has it's place I think for Good reasons IMHO 👍

Doing the same over here (Netherlands) Works formidable!!!
I wondered if I could mix cooking oil . So thanks for your comment.
Can I use only cooking oil?
@@orbisrubra935 the wixs work better with blended fuel kerosene thins the veggie oil esp in cold weather

Ive got this exact one. Nice to see it in action. The pot stand can be opened out for using a frying pan too.
Nice presentation and I like the cam closeups. I would just use an extended snoot Butane lighter for setting it alight.

WHY ARE YOU BURNING BIO MASS IN A HOUSE WITHOUT VENTILATION. CARBON MONOXIDE IS NO JOKE. ALL FIRES PRODUCE CARBON MONOXIDE.
EXACTLY the same thing happened with mine! Threw it out.....dangerous!

I've got one of these. They are brilliant stoves and kick out loads of heat!
Looks like a nice stove to have. I have a kerosene cooker in my shed. I bought it for y2k. Thanks for sharing.

I bought one of these a will ago and have never had it alight yet thanks for the demo
You got a a Like and a new stove addicted Follower from Germany.
Very nice video. No nonsense and everything one needs to know in a pinch.
Hi, man. How I enjoyed this video thank you for sharing. as I'm looking forward to purchase a few.
Stick a cast iron grill plate on top of this for more radiant heat
Looks like a pretty good stove , tha ks for sharing
I thank you for great video. I could never get my stove to light or stop smoking .
This works very good man.
Lol - I wish I had seen this video 2 years ago - had to work all of this out for myself
So you don’t let the fire short near the wick height like heaters ?
1000 times better than camping propane stove,
These are alot more safer

How long this cheap quality stove can work if used regularly 🤔, approx,

Ok, but I was asking about how many months this stove can last while using regularly , bcoz my stove also have really thin metal, ?
How good will this be for heating
Cuando traerán este producto a México

Would Diesel fuel works too? Guess a Lot more smell but...
yes, but i wouldn't want to breath in the toxins and you may find pan cleaning a little harder
How about using denatured alcohol in it! Around 10 bucks for a quart! Burns clean!
Where in jamaica cac i get one thes to buy

No Companies in the UK make these?
I will get one of these.

If You could use a little bit of carbon fiber instead of paper , Your fire starter would last a lot longer
I would strongly advise against blowing into the top to put it out!! It may ruin your day!
This is the third one I bought. My real problem is switching this stove off.The lever on all 3 stoves were faulty. Do not trust that blowing off story.
Ancient people had more common sense and cost less in health care that cureently cripling federal budget is cost in health care
it cost £799 gallon of paraffin its not very good it dont last long i could not get on with it my self this guy loves it each to his own i guess
£799.00 or £7.99...I can find it for around £12.00 per 4litres easily but that's still quite expensive I think.
no thanks...i dont do well with wicks...it has to be a primus or sievert industrial 15kw kerosene burner...even better two of them🤪
Slow cooker.
Mas nkkatipid
Junk
NOPE!!!
If you use carbon felt instead of cotton wicks they will last forever and won't need trimming.
