Hello, Mike! Thank you for taking the time to review our product and reading the provided instructions (most people don’t, unfortunately). We’ve been iterating on Night Briquettes for almost a decade now in order to ensure the longest possible and most consistent burn. It’s a great pleasure to see the fruits of this labour in a positive customer experience!
Hi Guys, great to hear from you and I'm glad you liked the review. I'd certainly like to see the production process if you ever get time, I think it would make a great video. I approached these with some skepticism :) finding it hard to believe anything that small could burn for that long. Delighted with the results and will be adding them to our wood stock for the future. Regards Mike
I agree with you that a quid each sounds pretty expensive. Although I suppose that using 2 briquettes means 2 quid for 8 hours of heat, which doesn't seem terrible. And I guess the price drops the more you buy. Your video certainly got me thinking about giving night briquettes a go in my my own stove, so thanks for that.
Thanks. it's worth a try to see how they work for you. We've settled on 5 hours reliable heat, but what they do really well is completely burn everything down so that you get no bits of charcoal and just fine ash.
That was very helpful and informative. Not sure if I will pull the trigger on them as even at £1 a go they are expensive. My local cheap shops and sometimes Aldi sell similar types so much cheaper but not sure how long the burn is. I think I have had them going overnight with similar results, just about able to get the next day's burn going.
When I first came across coffee logs I was very keen to try them, as I thought they'd fill the house (or the patio, if a used them in the fire pit) with a lovely ground coffee aroma. I was bittery disappointed... Nice stove you have there.
I have just watched 1 video with a 12Kw stove and 1 lekto night briquette 3h burn so it did not work out for him. Then i found this Amazing video Thank you. I have 1 box coming. my fire will only fit 1 briquette in at a time and will be great if i can get 8-15 hours out of it.
Aww you are too kind, thank you. I have exciting news, I've been in discussions with Lekto and I'll soon be reviewing three more of their amazing products and testing to see if the claims stand up. Stay tuned for me soon
@@MikesMovies I am limited to what size logs i can get in my stove as i have the Nomad oven pro. Its a great bit of kit just hope these briquettes fit ok. I can get my fire to run 4-5 hours using oak logs. This will be great if i can get this stove to run 8+ hours.
Hi Mike, any advice on the stove fans? I bought one a few years ago, but dropped it upon first use & it tends to be a bit noisy - which is annoying? Might upgrade for the winter! Which ones do you guys have? & any observations / recommendations - as close to silent as possible would be great!
@@theunfinishedarticle hi, thanks. It's well worth investing in a good one, can't recall the brands, one starts with a V. I'll dig mine out and check, they do work so worth having
@@MikesMovies thanks for getting back to me so quickly - looks like you may have a Valiant VANQUISH 250. I didn’t hear a peep from the fans on the video.
@@theunfinishedarticle I'm not that impressed with the two blade fan and yes they run very silent. Always place them at the back of the stove so they can draw in cool air to blow across the hot plate. I'm trying to find the good ones details

Where are you based
Looks like one my wife’s chocolate cakes they’d burn for 12 hours 😂 👌😎☕️
Lol Fred, better not let her see that 😂

Great video Mike! I’ve just bought myself a box these, the same size as yours. I can’t wait to get them on! 🔥 😊
Hope you enjoy it! they are amazing given the size
