Hi Mark, thank you for demonstrating all the features of this stove in detail. Compared to the previous version, another biggest change is that we have stretched the panels and the base to minimize deformation at high temperatures. You can see some noticeable square-shaped protrusions in these areas. This stove is primarily designed for burning wood, and the accessories provide more options. Of course, we also understand that ensuring multifunctionality will inevitably sacrifice some portability. But we hope that while ensuring the basic functions, this product can become more fun to use. Additionally, we have carefully considered and tested every detail, such as how to set the height of the four pieces pot stand to perfectly match the solid fuel tablets and alcohol burners. If anyone has any questions about this product, please feel free to ask. We are happy to hear different opinions to help us improve and design better products.😄😄
G'day Mark, always so good to see improvements forthcoming. I really do like the multifuel concept of this one as well as its rectangular form. It does mean though you have to use their gas stove. Good to see the grill plate now captive. I reckon the ladder affair needs a locking feature too, I'd suggest even more so. Cheers Duke.
Perhaps for us older folks, the next wood stove they make should be called the "ibuprofen" wood stove…….sorry. It’s always good when a company listens to feedback from users in order to improve their product. I do like the bellows fork combo. ✌️🇺🇸🇨🇦✌️
How about Psilocybin stove. More in line with use in the woods. Yeah, they did listen some but I could see a few more improvements needed. Thanks for commenting
Do you feel the designers missed an opportunity when redesigning the pot stand to not get the optimal height for the Trangia burner correct? Do you think the gas burner would be better if set higher in the pot stand?
In my experience, correct height for a Trangia in terms of boil time and fuel efficiency is approximately 1.25". The gap for this pot stand is .75". This will significantly slow the boil time but not seriously affect the efficiency. I am fine with the gas burner height as is. I look at this stove as being designed to burn wood or wood pellets with alcohol and gas as secondary. I am okay with the compromise to those secondary functions. Thanks for commenting
@@TheSpoovy In my experience, a reduced pot height only slows boil time and does not appear to affect fuel consumption. Conversely, a pot gap greater than 1.5" will result in a faster boil time but with a disproportionate increase in fuel consumption. This may be worth my making a video on. Thanks
Hey Jim. Great two weeks. Smoking hot for the first 11 or 12 days, averaging 35C to 37C during the day and 20C to 25C overnight. That was a bit to deal with but the breeze at the beach made it bearable. Thanks for asking
Looks interesting but I think I’d still prefer my Firebox Ti. Does all this with less fiddling. With all the ti accessories it is definitely a bigger investment but seems to me and my arthritic hands much easier to use.
G'day mate, fair enough !!! However, I do think its fair to say, its difficult to design a wood, gas, alcohol, tablet job all in a flat pack. Personally, I like the fuel options, since we often have fire bans in place here, .... to varying degrees. Otherwise, I'd just use a ground/pit fire all the time ; ) ...... Leaving no trace of course !!! Cheers Duke.
The Nano is easier to setup. The Firefly has a larger burn chamber, is lighter weight and is a wood gas stove, at least partially. Thanks for commenting

Hello and thank you for commenting. Your additional information is greatly appreciated
Hello Mark
Another fine day in the Woods
For sure. Thanks for commenting
Great that Seratonin is actively improving their product. Thanks for sharing Mark!
I agree Steve. It is a good start. Thanks for commenting
Hi Mark. I like the stove itself- size, sturdiness, elevated ash pan. Quite sure I wouldn't use all of accessories but some may. Enjoy your week.
I agree. Thanks for commenting

Hi Duke. They have made a few good upgrades for sure. Thanks for commenting
Love The New Improvements Made & Shared Here Mark ! ATB T God Bless
Thanks for commenting Terry
A thorough review. Thanks for the update, Mark.
Most welcome. Thanks for commenting
Thank you for this Video!
Most welcome. Thanks for commenting
another nice video thanks
Thanks for commenting
I liked the description "ladder affair" its a phrase I've not heard except by older people in Yorkshire UK. Great video as usual.😊
Guess I am one of those older people now😅 Thanks for commenting
Very nice video i like that stove and i will get one checking in from Australia
Glad you like it. Thanks for commenting

Ill take a xanax stove!

Good video, thanks for sharing YAH bless !
Much appreciated. Thanks for commenting
Thoughts on burning pellets in this?
Yes, works well with wood pellets. Thanks for commenting
A link to the original video would be helpful.
There is a link to the first video at the end of this one but I have just added it to the description. Thanks for commenting
@@MarkYoungBushcraft Thank you for responding so well. Blessings

@@MarkYoungBushcraft If it significantly affects boil time it must be significantly affecting efficiency as well, no?

Hi Mark, you back from vacation? How did it go?

Fair enough. Of course this is a bit lighter and is a wood gas stove as well. Thanks for commenting
That looks really fiddly to use and seems quite compromised in every configuration too. I think these manufacturers try to be too clever sometimes.
It is quite fiddly to assemble. The thinking was to get a flat packing woodgas stove. It does result in a few compromises. Thanks for commenting

I‘m not sure, if I like it. Everything looks like a toy compared to my firebox nano…🤔. First I thought it could be an option….
The Nano is easier to setup. The Firefly has a larger burn chamber, is lighter weight and is a wood gas stove, at least partially. Thanks for commenting
@@MarkYoungBushcraft Ok, but it’s definitely not lighter! The nano weighs less than the half… But with the woodgas function you are right 👍🏻
