can you use a bunch of paper or does it have to be toilet paper

[USNERDOC]

@3152222 - toilet paper

[UStacticalmedic36]

Would you be able to use this in a tent if your camping ?

[USNERDOC]

@UStacticalmedic36 - I would strongly recommend against using this in a tent . . . that is a recipe for potential disaster.

Doc, this is the third of your videos I have watched, I just found your site today, and I am very grateful to have found your videos. They are an extremely great asset ! And the quality of the presentations are outstanding! I am going to make a few of these! Thanks Sir!

I made a few of these, thanks for this video. I don't have an alternative heat source for my house so I have a few here in the house, too.

[doublebubleguy12]

I'm the kinda person that would try to use the alcohol as fuel in my car

[TheRebelEye]

Keep in mind that a bean can or any other can works good too.

[vaneztax]

Thank you. Your instructions are superb.

[DEMON00LEGION]

From what I've read online high proof liquor (190 proof) has the highest heat content per gram, clean burning, and generally non toxic.

[67letsride]

Good idea but why don't you build a fire

[YiuTeub]

Good video. Although I stick to my tent catback heater and about 6 cans of propane. Flameless is the best but this video is better than buying those goofy emergency candles. More heat the better :)

[bluesgurugod]

Great video - thanks!

[sterlingb100]

I used 50 percent alcohol from the dollar store.and it wouldnt stay lit..then went to the pharmacy for 70 percent at 450 a bottle with taxes in so really its.thats not that cheap..if a whole bottle lasts only a couple hours...but in an emergency.i would say...probably the best 5 bucks or so youd ever spend.

[TheSportzjunky]

thanks so much for this video I have made a dozen in the last week to give as gifts!
