Thank you so very much for doing this video! Because I was wondering what the difference in size is, when they are side by side, and you demonstrated that, and even took the time to tell the burn amount and duration. Thumbs up! I'm subscribing!

Nice little set-up you have there with that Grizzly Cubic stove! I grew up with my dad always installing any type of wood heat and cooking stove in our campers which used he usually built the campers as well. One time he used a timber frame and cardboard for the walls and ceiling because he didn't have enough wood to complete the camper so used what he could scrounge to complete the job with. Dad was very resourceful. You know I am really proud of my father for always keeping food and a roof over our heads with all 8 kids and my mother:) My dads 87 and he is now completing an old bus 49 bus and he has totally re-built the whole motor! My dad loves the Lord and continues to amaze me with his ability to do what he does for his second family with 14 more kids added to mix of our family:)) I hope I didn't reminisce to much! But your cute little stove brought back many memories of my early childhood. Thank you for updating us I just started watching your videos today! Love your videos!

When I was 18 I helped a friend build a very nice home out of a old school bus. My friend was a welder and hand crafted a wood stove using 1/4" thick steel plates to use in his new home on wheels. My point is this...whenever you use a wood stove or other like minded heater such as a hearth with chimney in a normal home you ALWAYS have a flu to draw the smoke out of your structure. As this smoke and heated air goes up and out the same volume of fresh air has to replace what goes up and out right? So when this new air comes into your abode it is the same temperature as it is outside when its drawn inside thus actually slowly cooling the very air you"re trying to heat up. This is going against what you are trying to achieve. Now back to my friends home on wheels..... When we installed his handmade wood burner he made the legs out of black steel pipe using 3/4" . A same sized hole was cut into the flooring giving access to the outside air thru these pipes when they were mounted vertically on the floor and attached to the underside of his stove that also had holes into the bottom of the stove housing giving the stove all the fresh air from outside (through these attached leg pipes) without the need to draw any preheated air from the inside of his home. He fashioned the dampers at the top of each front leg pipes and could quite easily adjust any and all air flow at the touch of small handles. This little added feature to his home stove/heater made all the difference in the world when it came to heating that old bus. In fact sometimes it actually made it too hot in there until he learned how to accurately set the leg dampers. So to get the optimum heating from any home hearth or box wood burner try to figure out a way to have it draw it's air from the outside not from inside of your home. Outside air is a bit more oxygenated making for a better burning and possibly hotter fire anyways! Remember that whatever air goes up and out the smokestack/chimney it needs to be equal to what needs to be drawn from somewhere else and you'll be surprised at the lower cost and more efficient way your heating device will be by getting your burner's air from outside............ Bye for now, a true survivor Me

Yeah I've been thinking about this too on a boat, but am thinking of using an old (unused) chimney fitting, connected to a 3" heavy duty plastic duct, run inside cavities, to underneath the burner. The duct can just be capped if necessary, for damping, but I havent worked out if all the variables involved would increase or decrease the heat on the boat, overall, with the ducting capped...will just have to experiment. Also I'm 'catching' the heated air above the burner, and funnelling that into more insulated ducting in the cavities, which uses a cheap little 12v computer fan to exhaust the warm air into the v berth at the bow, so the sleeping area is warm and toasty too...am also looking at those steel convection heat fans to sit on top of the burner itself, bit will probably make my own, as they cost a fortune...

I am very impressed with this stove and have been doing some investigating on it. I found out that they recommend that the chimney pipe be completely straight. No bends. I see you have it with two bends so that makes me wonder if that’s the reason your glass goes black because of low air flow. Hmm 🤔 I’m definitely getting one of these for sure. Thanks for the review.

What a great series of videos on tiny wood burning. You both did a fantastic job of showing us all the great details of these two wonderful little stoves. There is nothing like the heat from wood. You did not mention the evolution of the flue pipe. In the previous vid in the install it seems to be under designed in protecting the pass through. single wall is too dangerous and should have well more than only 1in clearance. However the amount of time you have used the stove shows you do seem to have reliability. As a builder of both pellet and wood stoves myself. it would be good to see the manufacturer incorporate an air wash design to the glass, it would allow a crystal clear view of the fire full time. Also, I have found that a heavy pair of welding gloves allow me to reach into my stove and place wood exactly where I want it without the worry of burning my hand. Thanks again for the great vids.

The flue pipe is a basic stainless heating pipe ( like an oil furnace would have ) it's made from a flat stainless sheet cut to size then rolled formed. They press ( hydraulic press ) both edges ( seems ) together in a male / female locking pattern. 1 end is pressed inward in a slightly smaller corrugated ( rippled pattern )so both pipe ends fit tightly together, roughly 4 inches deep. Inside flue pipe diameter is roughly 3 inch in dia.

On another video, he said he changed it because there was so much creosote buildup in the cub that he head to clean it every 2 mos (although he said he often cleaned it every 4 weeks). He said that he didn't want all the creosote falling into that second upper chamber that burns the woodsmoke a second time before it goes up the chimney. By having that configuration when he scraping & cleaning, the creosote falls to the side, out that side piece on the flue. He said there was so much creosote because the CUB is so small that it would only get up to 300 or 308 degrees when he first stoked it (that's the optimal temp, 300-500 degrees, to burn creosote (based on the temp flue guage he had). After stoking, the temp would go right back down to 225 degrees, therefore there is always a lot of creosote even though he only uses hardwoods (like Oak) and would leave the flue or damper wide open ALL the time to maximize heat output. There's a 30 min video he did on this topic. But he took down the one that explained in detail how he did it.

Did you end up getting a Grizzly? How did you find it in your 100sq ft space? I'm deliberating about getting one of these as I have a ~150sq ft space to heat. Would like to cook on it too, but would be concerned about it being too much heat for the space...

An old trick for cleaning the glass on your wood stove is to take some newspaper, wet it and dip it in the ashes. Scrub the glass with it and it will take all that soot right off.

Great video. Thanks so much. Am considering this stove for my "eventual" rv build. If I may, hypothetically, if you were running the stove one night but had to move the rv, for whatever reason, could you shut it down and get right on the road or would that be an issue? Also, how high does the chimney need to be over the roof? Would it interfere with solar? Shadow, soot, heat damage?

I don't really know because our RV is not mobile. It's up on blocks. But we subscribe to a channel called Bus Life NZ, they have a little stove similar to ours in their camper bus. They did a video recently showing the bus driving down the road and there was smoke coming out of the stack while they were driving. I'm not endorsing that, I'm just telling you what I saw. Maybe you could call or email Cubic and ask them?

Question, why did you change the vent pipe, and what is the T pipe for?
@J.Cameron.Stuart.Adams.
@J.Cameron.Stuart.Adams. 5 жыл бұрын
It comes with a new pipe. The T: A - soot can fall into the trap rather than back down into the stove and B - is likely so he can clean out the flue without walking on the old trailer roof. It's an old trailer with 2x2 wood framing. Therefore a tall guy like him wouldn't want to risk walking on the roof. These older trailers are not meant to be walked on. Some have a ladder. But that's for accessing the old style luggage bars (if equipped or optioned on the roof) and/or the rare occasion you need to get on the roof for repairs. Annual cleaning and sealing on older travel trailers should be done from a ladder. There are instances where one must get on the roof. The best way is to use planks of wood to distribute your weight over several 2x2 roof supports. Hope this helped answer your questions. Cheers from Seattle.

Good video. I remember when these first came out and I knew they were way to small for anything bigger than a van. Sure they'll heat it but need to be filled every hr. I built my own years back out of a piece of oilfield casing and put it in my 23 foot class C motorhome which I lived in for 4 years. Canadian Rocky mountains. It was a great little stove but if I did it again I'd have added about 4 more inches to it which would have added mass plus the longer log/more wood. I was able to get 6hrs on the cold nights and that was with no skirting and looking back I used dead standing wood and didn't know how much better dry seasoned wood made a difference.

There goes my gas money for the next two weeks. :-/ Still, Im so happy to have been able to save up to get one. Another video (not your's) mentioned it took them a month to get it after ordering. The web site said it would take 4 days shipped through DHL, so I'm hoping things have changed. Anyway, wanted to thank you for helping me to choose the Grizzly for my travel trailer.

I can see using one of these in my small garage, but at night in an RV? I wouldn't want to have to wake up 5 or 6 times to feed the thing wood. You'd get back in bed and think, "I'm half-asleep, did I shut the door tight or set the air right so I don't burn the place down?". By the time you got back to sleep, it would be time to get up and feed it again. You'd die of sleep depravation. Maybe if they were self-feeding pellet stoves it might be worth it.

This tiny stove is the only thing that will fit in our RV. Anything larger needs several feet of clearance on all side, and we just don't have the room. We were THRILLED when we discovered that this little thing would work for us. We also have other sources of heat. Since we never move our RV, we were able to upgrade the electric service from 30 amp to 100amp. That allowed us to add electric baseboard heat. So now we use the wood stove about 18 hours a day. When it goes out at night the electric backup heat comes on. The stove saves us hundreds of dollars every year. I think it paid for itself the first winter. Also, we are preppers. We are on the grid, but we are prepared to survive completely off the grid if necessary when the power goes out. And that includes buying pellets. We live in the woods, so wood is free and readily available (if I chop it). We don't want to be relying on buying pellets - they might not always be available. If the power goes out, we can still heat the place. We just pile on lots of blankets and night and restart the fire in the morning.
