- DIY Off Grid Survival Stove! Powered with hand sanitizer! super easy to throw together. great for survival/power out situations. no tools needed! all you do is fill 4 cans with sand and position them as shown in video (then add fuel and light it up). it's a 'flex-fuel' stove too, so it can be run on many different fuels (5 that i can think of) and two of those are standard household items. all you need are 4 leftover steel food cans, one metal sauce cup and sand. that's literally everything. there's no cutting, drilling or altering of the cans in any way. it's just a one minute assembly. the stove has a very stable "triangle design" and will hold any shape or size of pan with ease. (it even holds dutch ovens). it's also very easy to adjust the power of the burner. just lower or raise the sand level of the middle can. the stove boils a half a gallon of water in 15 mins. (and 16 oz. in 5 mins). tested in mock survival situations at home (both inside and outside) - in grid down, power out, wind, cool temps etc... cooked like a champ in every situation. again, it's so simple to make that many people will not need to buy anything to make it. they'll already have everything they need! (including the fuel!) ~ it runs on hand sanitizer but it can also be run on isopropyl rubbing alcohol, ethanol and even some 'drinking' alcohols. note that the bottom of the cans stay relatively cool for a long time so the stove can be used right on the counter. please rate, comment, subscribe, and share it around with everyone you can! 👍🙂
🟢 since it's made from common household items - even if you don't make it, try to remember the design. it might help you through unexpected tough times or situations. (i've got two of these 'stove setups' on a storage shelf) ...ready to use if needed

Simplicity + Ingenuity = Success! 👏
yes. it's funny how sometimes when you make it simpler and easier it actually works better. i made 2 other setups (during the design phase of this project) but with those you had to cut up the cans and they weren't nearly as stable so i tossed those ideas.
02:23 - Movie magic 😆 Outstanding work, another brilliant idea, demonstrated perfectly, thank you Sir, very much appreciated 👍🏻
hi and thank you! i appreciate the kind words. when you said movie magic i first thought you meant the rooster crowing at the start of the second scene. that was good timing.
Cool idea, yes! More importantly now I know what I'm fixin to eat. :)
Thumbs up video Brother ~John
hi and thanks! i'm thinking i want a grilled cheese right now
More great ideas! Thanks for sharing
Brilliant! Thank you!
Thank you for this Video...all for the algorithm...
hi. i hope the algorithm picks up on this video. the info could potentially help lots of people.

Yes, and the more People leave comments and like your videos, the better for EVERYONE!
I really do like your Videos, and tried a couple of them, but I don't live near anywhere near a beach to get the white beach sand or even get small River rocks you have in other videos...I am thinking about purchasing 3" chimney pipes and an elbow to make a stove like you showed it here filled with Sand AROUND the chimney pipe. A metal can big enough to hold the pipe and the Sand...I am trying to make a simpler Version of the "Cobb" Grill. I burned the plastic housing, by using more then 6 brickets to heat the grill. So now I am looking for a Homemade Cobb where I can use MORE then 10 bricks for longer cooking times 🥴
Wow! Thanks for sharing, great idea and can be put together quickly. I love it! 😉❤
hi and thanks! yes, it's so easy to put together and works so well that i'm sitting here thinking it might be the best "quick build" stove i've ever made (since you can just put it together with common household items and no tools needed).
Phenomenal video! Even in emergency situations you showcase ways someone could boil water to have clean drinking water. Cool stuff as always.
Thank you!
Brilliant!
Some hand sanitizers have perfume in them so they do stink a bit when you burn them so I do recommend doing this outside and keep a lid on top of your pan. You don't want your food to taste like burnt perfume.
Great stove by the way though 👍 !
hi. the brand i use is lemon scented but it's pretty mild. the scent just blows off into the air. it won't 'flavor' the food.
Mine don't have any smell or residue when I cook over them. I use them inside with no issue.
Good video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Thanks, you too!
Awesome! I have been using bricks instead of cans with sand to hold up my pans. The cans would be cleaner, and when not using, I could put a dog food plastic lid on the sand so it doesn't dump out. I have used all kinds of ways for cooking with hand sanitizer since I learned about your heaters. I wonder if you could cook biscuits in a cast iron dutch oven over that hand sanitizer fire... You would then have emergency heat, stove AND oven. My mind is blown... I gotta try it.
EXCELLENT! Thank you very much!
hi and thank you! it's one of the best 'all around' stoves i've ever made.
Brilliant
great idea - thank you for sharing. Stay safe. ATB. Nigel
hi and thank you!
Awesome! The local food bank was giving out bottles and bottles of hand sanitizer during the pandemic. I literally have about a half gallon of the stuff.
I have six cases. Same from a food bank. I need somewhere to store it though. Wife is tired of seeing it in the living room
Great job
hi and thanks!
Question: basically a solar question, I have a rain barrel outside I do not want to freeze when it's winter. It's inside a small shed. I want a small solar heater inside with a panel on outside. How would I install an automatic thermostat so it doesn't catch anything on fire in the shed and how can I install a switch? Can you do something quick In a video for something like that?
Awesome! Many food banks, panties, and clinics give out hand sanitizer for free. Stock up!
Add the $1.25 store too! Big bottles!
that's good info to know ✔🙂 thanks for sharing it.
Also I saw a video where you can make your own with equal parts 70% rubbing alcohol + cooking oil. Anyone tried this?
I’m not sure if it would have to be a specific kind of cooking oil.
Simple, does the 1oz alcohol in 2oz cup boil that pot of water or how many alcohol refills?
hi yes, it boils it easily. amazingly powerful stove.
How long will it last?
I go dumpster-diving and I got gallons and gallons of the stuff when I wash clothes sometimes I'll heat up two and a half gallons of water with hand sanitizer.
I have had to do this many times lol
hi. i'm glad you use it. very easy way to cook.
Cleaver idea, is it liquid hand sanitiser or gel?
thank you! it's listed as gel on the bottle (but it is fairly runny). they sell that brand on amazon if you want the exact kind.
@@desertsun02 Thanks that’s a good idea and item to have in an emergency at home.
How do you factor your cost of hand sanitizer vs pure alcohol?
cLAW, it's so cheap some places, they are giving it away. I was gifted with dozens of cases of gallon jugs of the stuff. It was like gold a couple years ago. They manufactured too much. Look around. I've seen it discounted in a lot of places.
@@wolin289 Wow! Thanks for the info. I'll be on the hunt.
I see it all the time at super low prices at the swap meet.
what about liquor?
nvr mind. you answered it in the video xD
hi. yep liquor works too. if it's high enough proof.
❤
thanks for the heart! 🙂👍
How long does it burn for? Im guessing its a bad idea to refill it will 90% once its hot
hi. your guess is correct. you should not put fuel into a hot metal sauce cup. these metal sauce cups (ramekins) are usually sold in at least 4 packs so you should use a cool cup each time.
@@desertsun02
Can't small cans of tuna fulfill the same role? I'm glad I found your channel, you saved me!
🖖👍
How long does each ramekin last for?
hi. it will vary depending on what fuel you use and how much you put in the ramekin but 15 to 40 mins is a general average. the ramekin itself should last a while.
@desertsun02 that's great ty! I made similar setup that's works great! I haven't found an oil or alcohol that's last more than abt 15 min yet! What's your favorite for heat ouput vs.ti.e duration?
@donkrebs3554 i've tried 5 different types of fuel so far but i don't really have a favorite. the one that last the longest is probably the bio ethanol fuel i use. i can get up to 38 minutes when i use that. 🙂
Add perlite to the steel cup then pour sanitizer over it
hi. what will the perlite do?
from the comments someone alluded to perlite is so porous it "traps" gaseous vapors and may even reburn them....that hiram guy said it makes the alc last longer.....you should try it
Do you know if you can use this system in the house or indoors? Did the hand sanitizer give off any type of noxious smell like isopropyl alcohol does? Thanks!🙂👍
hi there. you can definitely use this inside. the hand sanitizer i used was lemon scented so i could smell that but not a big deal. you can use several different types of fuel with this unit. the best type of all is probably bio-ethanol. that burns very clean. denatured alcohol works very well too.
Where do I get sand
