Quality, no fluff, no nonsense gear review videos. Everything id like to know you address. Thank you for continuing to come out with excellent gear review content.
We use an older 5CP with a Poshehonka S, and we always use a monoxide warner. It never came to an alarm or even any higher ppm reading. However, with extra redundancy, I sleep better, knowing my wife is safe. We also love Vlagberg, as well as Borger and Veenkuil. Next week end we are in Welna/Epe. Greetings from a tent collector. Keep the videos coming. Dank je wel.
Graag gedaan en dank voor je leuke commentaar!. Thanks for the nice comment and sharing your thoughts and experience! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
If you look at the "path" for the burn and smoke to escape out, it has a sharp bend after the burning chamber that will reduce the risk of sparks at least bigger ones to go out the chimmney, that design also make the burn more efficient ( secondary burn).
Hi Bonilsson, Thanks for the nice comment and sharing your thoughts, experience and secondary burn! I did not know how it was called. Nice to know for future videos🙏. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Yet another very good review. We also use the Safir CP7 and Eldfell stove. Downsides of the stove (in our opinion) are that it is heavy, bulky, expensive and... well, ugly! Would we buy another Eldfell stove? Absolutely, yes! It is built like a tank, simple and - most importantly - reliable. Never used a CO detector, but always ensure adequate ventilation.
I have the stove and the size 7 tent. love it differently not a back packing stove. I have noticed it does get really hot the stove and glows red . I tend to when going to bed just but a couple of logs in (big opening ) and turn air vent down and last till about 4/5ish in the morning. .
You have also covered the gstove in a safir 7. How does gstove compare to eldfell? How much do you miss not having folding racks on the side of the eldfell? Most other makes such as winnerwell, nortent and gstove have them. How much do you miss the lack of any kind of glass window to monitor the fire?
Hi Ian, I prefer the Eldfell just because it is simple. I don't miss the racks on side because the top is enough for us. Window.... would be nice but I don't really miss it. It's nice for the view, not for controlling. The fire glow shines through the regulator although it is not showing the fire because it is a double wall contrction. This glow is good enough to see how the fire is doing. I would like a watertank for the chimney but I found one somewhere online once that would fit but.... I did not buy it. A kettle works too 😉. Maybe less is more in my case.... Cheers, Gijs
I dont use a carbon monoxide alarm either.Keep vents just partly open if its cold outside. I use stove in my Safire 5 light, have used it in a nr 7 also. I mostly use a smaller stove, a "Four dog" titanium stove in my safire 5, that stove is smaller and a lot lighter (just below 5 kg with all chimney and side shelf) and its enough even in winter time in southern Sweden.
Leuke video, kwaliteit kost eenmaal geld. Bij een goede kachel heb je geen demper nodig. Ipv de 'klinknagels ' zou ik voor nood hele kleine boutjes meenemen . Deze kun je desnoods met de hand aandraaien.
The Eldfell stove is not really overzised for Safire 5, it depends on how/ when its used. In northern Lapland they just had temperatures below minus 40, but of course in most normal teperature even in northern Sweden it might be a bit too powerful. ou can check "Nagualero" a youtuber (sadly passed away some time ago but channel still active), he use Eldfell in his Safire 7 cp in minus 20-25 c and it works just fine there. He state that in Safire number 9 he would have to use much more wood to keep a decent indoor temp so he didnt recommend that at least not for long term use. He spent a full year in his Safire so I think he knew pretty well.
Hi, Oh I agree on those temperatures. It is all about regulating. But - I didn't mention it - with four in a tent the stove is also rather big in a CP5. The CP7 is the ideal tent in that respect for us. Thanks for the nice comment! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Nagualero only used the Eldfell for a single season and then switched to a Winnerwell that he said he much preferred. I will never get rid of my Eldfell, I think it’s perfect.
Hi Rusty, Yes Nagualero only used the Eldfell one season but he more or less lived there in the Safire 7 cp all that time, more or less his home. So the Eldfell probably got the use of 4-5 seasons for most users or so. He was not impressed with the "stainless steel" but he was ok with the efficiency of the stove.@@RustyKnorr

There is still no reason not to use a CO detector, despite having no deaths yet. Other stoves are wrong to use a damper in the flue, it makes CO poisoning more likely & you have demonstrated they are not necessary as the air intake does it for you. I liked your review on G stove in a tentipi, but perhaps this is best, apart from the very high price. Thank you.
Hello Gijs, me again. 😊 I’ll start with the elephant in the room and in English so that everybody can read this. I hate wood stoves, the pollution it gives especially on busy campsites and even more in urban cities. It’s a big problem and it should be regulated to my opinion. It’s always the same: some really suffer with astma or just the smoke and very bad unhealthy air because a neighbour wants his joy without any real necessity than his ego and joy. And often, very often, they smoke when they want to, not when the weather is right: windy. One stove can pollute a large circle of sometimes more than hundreds of meters in wind still weather. Wham! Bang! ☹ ….. 😊 Ok if you are alone on a campsite Ok if you are in Sweden alone Ok if the wind is strong You didn’t mention all that. Alternatives: of course very good ventilation and than a good gas heater. And a lot LOT cheaper too to invest in. So perhaps only for a lonesome cowboy travelling in the wild finding wood everywhere in wintertime? I can’t say great review this time, but greetings again, Onno. 😊 PS.. heel grappig dat shot met de stove als rugzakdrager. 🙂
Hi Onno, There is no elephant in the room! I agree on most with you and that is how I use the stove.... and no... I didn't mention it because to me that is 'normal'. I realize that to many others it might not be. I can be outdoors on my own while others need to work. Lucky me. I have astma and I take great care in what I do. Staring in the flames is something that gives me peace of mind in world that is getting totally mad. It's my bad habit in relaxing. Gas heater... I get the remark but it's not same. Went to the sauna last week; didn't get the infrared heat also. Sorry. Rugzakkachel.... werd wakker met het idee dus doen. Fijn dat je Onno bent. Gijs
There’s always one person who wants everyone to change for them, well tough shit. Sorry, but you’re wrong on so many points I don’t even want to waste my time. Campfires are part of camping, are you going to cry about those, too? What about the environmental impact of burning gas, or extracting and refining it?! What about the noise/smell of a diesel/gas heater? I don’t want to listen to that crap all night, or at all. You obviously don’t camp in truly cold climates (probably because you’re so fragile with asthma) so you don’t understand the need for a quality wood stove when it’s cold. And most people using these are not using them in a campground where people like you hang out so I wouldn’t worry about it. If you don’t like it, stay home.

Hi Gijs, we live in Scotland (the outdoor centre of the universe!) and travel all over Europe either by canoe or Land Rover. 😎
That is the slow road home 😉

Kan de tentipi ook opgehangen worden? Dus zonder middenstok opzetten dmv een touw tussen 2 bomen?
Volgens mij niet. Er zit geloof ik geen ook aan de nok. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
