Your jets might be stronger and heat your water faster if you don't allow heat that boils the alcohol to be bled off by conduction to the metal tray. Check your tray. Bet it's gettin hot!
I bet you would have gotten a boil your first attempt with a top. Just bend the flip top tab at a 90 degree angle with a pair of needle nose pliers. Great honest video!
Great job, great test run. The one thing I think is great is that the burn time was over ten minutes and find that to be a success! Keep playing with this idea, your on to something.
Nice, I've made a variety of the alcohol stoves (pepsi can, v8, tuna can, etc...) but haven't seen the tealite one. Maybe I'll give it a try. Is this the stove you use in the field?
Good job! Keep up the tinkering. The more of us who play with these, the better the chance one of use will come up with something awesome. great video! Peace.
It seems to me that the pop can stoves heat up water faster than this tea light stoves not sure this would be a good stove for me
That said I still might give one a try

yeah, put a lid on it. even if the lid only covers part of the top of the can, it will help increase vapor concentration above the water surface.
