Fast Start Alcohol Pop Can Stove 1

After reviewing all the different types of Pop-Can stoves posted on YouTube, I decided to design and build an improved version. I built hundreds of pop can stoves in different sizes and configurations but most of them ended up in the trash can. I finally came up with a pop can stove design that works great. It takes 5 pop cans to build 1 stove. I call it my Fast-Start Pop-Can Stove. It does not need to be primed and will blossom in about 10 seconds. 1 oz of fuel (Heet) will burn for 9 minutes. 2 cups of water will come to a rolling boil under 6 minutes. Measured burning time is with a pan on top of stove. The fuel will burn out faster without a pan.

burning aluminum? bad?

[vwdad53]

@radzievicius I would'nt think so, since aluminum is used to cover food in ovens. Some people wrap fish in foil and let them cook in a bed of red hot coals or open flame..

That was way fast! I counted ten seconds from light to blossom! My question is whether you were inside or not. If you were, then the heet would probably have been room tempurature (about 68-72 degrees Farenhiet where I am) which can make a good difference in times.

@hellerZauberer  This test was in my garage during winter, the temp was 20 degrees Farenhiet.

can you make a tutorial on how to make that pop can stove...mine takes like 30s-1:00m to blossom. p.s. i subscribed

[andreybelyy1]

how did you make the stove?

please make a video

[camhirtle]

Did you use any fiberglass? I made a pressurized stove similar to this which requires insulation but although the heat output is great preheating it is a pain. This looks convenient...
