  • Interesting design Nat, thanks for sharing. I wonder how hot it becomes and in Haiti what can people use for fuel. Do they use the EverythingNice design? Will it work only with a fan? Is there a way to adjust the heat of the flame? Is there a way to add more fuel without having to take the pot off the top each time? Or do you usually put lots of fuel in first and everything burns downwards? How long will the fuel burn for? thanx!

  • @CardboardFurnitureInteresting design Nat, thanks for sharing.

    Your welcome

    Q I wonder how hot it becomes and in Haiti what can people use for fuel.

    A Not very and in Haiti we developed three specific fuel options based on mixtures of locally available waste biomass.

    Q Do they use the EverythingNice design?

    A No the Stove hubs in Haiti (and ten other countries we work in ) use versions of the LuciaStove.

  • @CardoardFurniture Q Will it work only with a fan?

    A We have both fan and fan free versions Q Is there a way to adjust the heat of the flame?

    A Yes

    Q Is there a way to add more fuel without having to take the pot off the top each time?

    A Yes

    Q Or do you usually put lots of fuel in first and everything burns downwards?

    A That is certainly the lower cost version of the Lucia

  • @CardboardFurniture

    Q How long will the fuel burn for?

    A We can tune to anything form 20 minutes to 16 hoursThe most common variety of LuciaStove tuning will run 2.5 to 3 hours with no tending needed

    thanx!

  • This looks amazing. Something so small can be used so economically, yet powerfully. I will watch more of what you do. I would like to live simply and make no great negative impact on my surroundings. I do not understand the fuel. Is it such that it burns to something useful or to total consumption or is readily available. I need to learn more.

  • Great stove. I'm having a hard time understanding the "coaxial" principle. How are you are changing the stove from pyrolytic to gasification mode? Does this stove use forced air? Are the top coaxial vents providing only superheated air, or are pyrolitic gases being sucked out from the bottom of the combustion chamber? A drawing or explanation would be greatly appreciated!

  • Senza ombra di dubbio:

    Bello, ben fatto e funzionale.

    Bravo e complimenti! ;-)
