The Original Thru Hiker alcohol stove promo

[leonardo1480]

if I was to make one of these stoves like that, how would I avoid it exploding like a Molotov cocktail when you put the pan on ???? shouldn't it have vents or some thing?????

[end2endtrailsupply]

@leonardo1480 The stove is a low pressure design that only burns alcohol. The seal the pan makes is not enough to overcome any high pressure situation. The stove would merely vent excess pressure through a combination of a slightly higher (1-3 psi) prssure at the jets combined with escaping pressure where the pot meets the stove. Now if you put gas in one, it would be a different story. That would cause a dangerous fire or explosion hazard. That is true of all alcohol stoves.

is zippo lighter fuel a good idea for this?

[end2endtrailsupply]

@wonkeytjuuuh NO! Never use any fuel other than alcohol! Butane and petroleum based fuels could cause a dangerous fire or explosion that could injure or kill. When used with methyl or ethyl alcohol the stove is very reliable. This recommendation applies to all alcohol stoves.

is zippo fuel a good idea for this?

[end2endtrailsupply]

@DMxNemesis The stove or the fuel? The stove will burn up to about 16-18 minutes tops, and the the stove will last as long as you take care of it. Hope this helps.

i <3 alcohol stove

[NCHiker1970]

Just because a design is older does not make it obsolete, this type stove has proven itself more times then any other out there.  It is still one that I consider and take with me on trips. Very good video.

Thanks, I started building and selling this one 3 years ago and it is still a favorite.
