Thank you for making the video. Very useful and enjoyable.

You can also use charcoal briquettes for a long lasting heat source.

It burns quickly because you're using it wrong. You are supposed to stack in the wood first, then put the kindling on top, light it and let it do it's job: the fire will burn through the wood very slowly but will produce huge flames not from the wood but from the gasses.

I have great results with little Swedish logs in my Tomshoo stick stove...anywho food for thought...once it's going you don't really have to feed it as much...hope you give it a go I seriously recommend! Thanks for sharing this bruv...Cheers, Jerbs

Love the patch on your right arm brother. True North my friend.

A great review. Thank you. This is a great stove that I have owned now for over 12 months. Many give up on it because they do not load and light it properly i.e. Load with thumb thick pellet size fuel to just below the top vents, then top light so that you have an upside down fire. Once smoke subsides and wood gas is being produced and burned via the top vents it becomes virtually smokeless and that is the time to place pot on top. With sticks sourced from your local environment a full stove should burn for 20 - 30 minutes depending on density of wood etc with no need to add fuel. If you need to add additional fuel then stove will start to smoke again but soon settles down. A couple of handfuls of cat litter wood pellets will burn for up to 30 minutes with a full load going for well over an hour. Once flames cease, stove will simmer for a considerable time and when all fuel us spent there is very little waste. A great stove that packs down small and will fitting inside a number of pots

Just ordered one of these off eBay for $14.63.. was already excited but after watching your video/review now I really can't wait to get it and test it out on my next outdoor adventure. Great video good review..and awesome channel!!..Sincerely your newest subscriber!!lol :)

Wood pellets for pellet stove work good in this type of stove. About 2 cups work good and gives a long burn time without having to constantly load stove. I used the hard wood pellets ,I haven't tried the soft wood pellets yet. They cost about $5.99 for forty lb. bag. They last a long time .

Looks like the Solo Titan. I have the Titan and Campfire. The campfire is fantastic, the titan is like the one here and yes, it requires constant feeding, but more compact. Then they get bigger, but price really jumps. These types of stoves are great. I've burned wood pellets in mine as well. And for $6 a bag (In PEI) you can get a hell of alot of pellets.

Hi, I have recently bought this stove from Amazon. It now comes with some trivets that go across the top of the stove so the cup problem wont be a problem anymore...It also comes with a kind of mini grill/mesh so you could cook food with it. I am gonna do a video with the new version...it really is a good stove for the money! Cheers, Lee

Wood pellets work well when twigs are wet.

When im in Woods i dont measure the time, plus this stove is fun to use and you can warm yourself in Winter

To load the stove properly, break sticks about the size of your thumb or smaller into lengths about the width of your palm. Stack the sticks into the stove vertically and then put your tinder on top. Always light the stove from the top. The inner holes at the top should be even with the top of the load after the tinder and small kindling has burned off. The flame will draw air in the bottom outside holes and up to the top inner holes. The air stream from the bottom outside holes will create a vacuum under the burn basket which will draw wood gas down from the holes in the bottom of the burn basket. The wood gas will mix with the outside air and be burned as the mix enters the burn chamber at the inner top holes. Another name for wood gas is "smoke". Smoke contains wood that has been converted to gas by the heat of the flame. To add fuel, break or chop wood into short chunks that can be added as the fuel inside burns down to coals. Never load the stove to a level above the top inner holes.

You can actually fold it smaller than you did at the end by about half an inch and therefore will fit even better in the pot

Thanks for the info ...I am going to purchase one of these stoves

That top acting as a windshield looks a decent feature.

Great demonstration video! I am interested to buy one... Do you think that stove is sufficient to make a pasta for 4, even 5, people?

they are some nice looking stoves maybe get me one .

Is this the RoryTory??? I like the idea of. Using wood in backcountry. I’m not sure but a lot of areas here in Utah have banned even wood stoves due to campers in popular areas clearing all dead wood from area. I would think that you could carry enough wood easily as it was plentiful into area that was devoid of this fuel. Has anyone had any experience in this regard?? I’d also like to see a wind and cold test and maybe ideas for heat control for simmering etc Great Video thanks. Makes me want to get out

Does it produce a lot of black soot on the pot and make the pot dirty?

Sorry I missed it what pot did you nest it in? Nice review

Cool, i juist bought one too

apparently he used the stove instructions for "kindling" instead of reading them; these stoves work really well if used correctly

Where did you purchase this stove?

스토브에 불붙히고싶게 만드는 영상이네요 잘보고가요 이번캠에는 미니스토브 가져가야겠네요^^/

Hey I noticed you had a cup or pot hanging off the back of your pack. See, this is why I watch videos of other people out in the woods. I pick up seemingly insignificant ideas from others that I might incorporate into my system. It never occurred to me that I could hang a lot of stuff on my pack other than just the things attached with molle. Those inexpensive wood gassifier stoves are great, aren't they? I bought a couple (don't tell my wife); at 18-20 bucks you can't really go wrong! And since those stoves are the same size as the SilverFire Scout they nest perfectly inside the MSR 775 ml Stowaway Pot! Btw, this type of stove works best by loading the fuel in FIRST, and then putting the tinder on top so that the fire burns down. They're called TLUD (Top-lit, updraft). This method eliminates the need to continually feed the thing with more fuel. Hey, my friend, it was very enjoyable being out in the woods with you. Thanks for the video.

First: Excellent informative video. Well done, sir. Two... Thanks for lighting the stove so that the tender is on the bottom. Even if a bit sloppy. :/P Just kidding. Considering the conditions you did a fine job! Pay no attention to those that INSIST That these type stoves MUST be 'top lit'! Certainly, this works but it is not---in my humble opinion---the most efficient way. Notice the bottom portion of the inner stove makes up the lower part of the 'firebox'. The draft created by the design of the stove brings in air to the INNER WALLS of the UPPER portion of the firebox. This air is then SUPER HEATED and when escaping through the uppermost vents slightly above the firebox it creates a phenomenon very similar to what firefighters know as “Flashover” . Flashover by definition is “the sudden involvement of a room or an area in flames from floor to ceiling caused by thermal radiation feedback.”1 Thermal radiation feedback is the energy of the fire being radiated back to the contents of the room from the walls, floor, and ceiling. Finally here is a tip of my own. Load the stove with a traditional fire-lay. Tender, kindling, then fuel-wood. Then pick the little bugger up and apply flame to the bottom of the lower firebox. If you want to impress the 'Strict Crowd' produce said flame with a striker or even a bow drill!

Nesting isn't a good idea because of the soot. You don't want that in your cook pot. Good vid. Thanks.

smoking like crazy *stuffs more into it

In China，this stove costs 6 dollars or so.

NOT true budget stove, wery expensive stove if cost 22$ normal good better gas stove cost 4-8$ and wood stoves 6-12$ only trangiaq have expensive more than this and some camping big stoves. all alcohol burners, gas stoves cost lot less than 22$ totally not have "budget" stove. if u mean budget stove have big budget waste lto money thats it true.
