In this brief video, I field test a Redcamp woodstove (small). I nearly tried to make a twig stove but thought I'd probably make too many mistakes! For the price of £18.99 inc delivery (Dec 2021), I thought that was a bargain.
Now just to see if it works. With the help of Flo, my Bavarian Mountainhound, we fire it up using birch bark and small twigs and see how long it takes to boil enough water for a hot drink and a hot x bun.
Please note, although the underlying ground is wet clay and the stump is wet, it is always sensible to clear the surrounding area of leaf litter before lighting any fire.
Here is the link for more information (although I now see it has gone up in price to £27.99!):

At last, someone else has figured out the handle to grill connection ! My stove arrived a couple of days ago, almost 2 weeks ahead of the projected delivery date, and came with a square of carbon felt, or welders Mat which is a useful accessory

Nice review, but your dog stole the show😂. I found that the airflow through the grate made it almost impossible to keep it cooking on an even temperature. I'd fill it with wood, it would burn hot for a few minutes, then cool while I loaded more wood. As the new batch caught and burned, the temperature soared, but a couple of minutes later it was cooling again. Once you've got the grate on, you can't add fuel from the top, so the door is almost permanently open. I cut a square of finer mesh from the top of a disposable barbecue and sat it on top of the grate. It slows the airflow and makes it a bit more usable, especially if you want to do anything more than boiling water. My second tip is to have plenty of wood, cut to size, before you start cooking. I have subscribed, partly to see if you can maintain such high quality videos, but mostly to see more of your dog.🤣

Nice review! I've had the same model for a few years and it's seen twigs, briquettes and makes a great wind-shelter for an alcohol stove resting on the ash grate. Wonderful and well designed piece of kit, I take it everywhere.

Great review 👍 got the same one two months ago. Learned a few tricks with it. If the pot is bigger than the stove top the flames can't come out. I put three small pebbles on the grill then the pot. I put a flat washer under the ring on the door, stays closed better. Makes a good wind block with a pocket rocket and alcohol stove. I had the ash tray upside down, the bent tap faces down, then it will slide in all the way beneath the hinge.

Been watching a lot of kit reviews lately and this has definitely been one of the better ones. No long winded intro, a bit of material collection but no real faffing about. Dog-cam well timed and not overdone. Solid A all around. My question to you is, at about 2 pounds in weight, is it worth the carry?
@SuttonWildOutdoors
@SuttonWildOutdoors Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your comments👍 It depends on your style of camping. If you're like me and buy stuff for different opportunities, the stove will give you the ability to heat or boil something quickly without having an open fire, using a smaller quantity of twigs. I just got back this morning from a camp out last night. I ended up cooking on an open fire and then on my ammo tin stove. As a fold up firebox, I think this is a good buy and for it's weight, I think it has benefits over, say carrying a gas stove.

Got mine last spring, haven't used it much. But I have tried mine out with sticks and twigs, you just have to keep feeding it. Then with Charcoal bricketes, that worked really well. Plus I tried it with a trangia burner, which also worked great. So maybe to heavy for modern back packers, but I like it. I know it will last along time.

Just came back from camping with exact same stove. I only have 1 cons from this little beast. This thing requires constant maintenance if you wanna keep the fire going. Since i am using dry little sticks of firewood - it burns real quick. Maybe i should prepare A LOT OF sticks because i had to chop down my logs into tiny little sticks and its real time consuming. Its good when you dont have to rely on fire but if you had to rely on fire and do other things too - better leave this at home.

You don't need to put the handles through the top grill to make the unit more stable and sturdy. With the stove I've got, the grill has two sides, with one having a distinct edge that if you place facing down makes the unit very sturdy without placing it through the stove handles - at any rate, it is optional and too many reviewers are calling it wrong to do otherwise - more a personal preference and I choose not to. Try lifting the stove and moving it around with the handles through the top grill... not so good ... and yes I use heat resistant gloves but quite awkward if the handles are lodged through the grill.

It concentrates the heat with the chimney effect, so I guess more heat generated with less wood. But yes, you are right, there's nothing wrong with an open fire and certainly less to carry.

A fire on a wooden stump surrounded by loads of loose tinder in the form of leaves and twigs in a small stove that looks easy to knock over. In what world is this considered safe or trained or responsible bush craft? I won't be subscribing. Please do better.

If this was summer or in a prolonged frost period in the winter, you would be correct. But in these Wealden woods with wet clay underneath the ground is wet, the stump is also dark because it is sodden.
