    Nice demo! You can use the alcohol part without changing anything. Just put the alcohol burner directly on the ground and only use the top part with the pot stands. Of course, it isn't the best windshield because of the feeding port hole and top holes. At least it had worked for me with the trangia burner. I think this is a nice backup just in case, because I consider there are better systems out there if the main goal is using alcohol stove.

    You can just make the notches on the pot stand that comes with it bigger.
    You can also just use the two bottom pieces + stand as a wood burning stove

    Nice. I have had one of these for a while, but not yet used it. It is definitely on the 'to-use' list now.

      Thanks a lot for watching the video! I'm glad you enjoyed it. The compact size and ease of packing are definitely some of the highlights of this little stove. As for the grinder, well, you caught me! Gotta be prepared for those wilderness coffee cravings, right? 😄 Thanks again for your support and the fun comment!

    Love these ovens. Have sylindrical cleanburning oven and flatpacking oven. The flatpacking are nice to use in winter when you want to heat yourselv when it throws the heat all around. But these "tower ovens" can do everything and are very versitable. In the high setup, when its have become hot you can throw almost everything semidry in and the fire gets going after some smoking. Just let the oven dry the twigs. If you use dry materials it is almost magical how thick stuff you can use and you dont have run around to find small twigs. Some ovens get problems after a while continous heating because the oven get gloged after a while, but this oven gets better because it gets so warm.

    Nice wee stove Martin, really versatile and lite. I have the titanium honey stove which is a similar weight but you have to slit it all together which can be a bit fiddly, and it’s twice the price! Another one to add to your collection! Epic thumbnail btw!

    • @soletrail
      @soletrail  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Gary! Yeah, this stove is awesome-versatile, lightweight, and no fiddly assembly required. Definitely a great addition to my collection. . Cheers man. Im enjoying the thumbnail process these days.

    You don't need to continuously feed this. Load up the burn chamber, and let it rip. It will do a boil just fine with a fully packed burn chamber.

      Thanks for the info

  • @totoroben
    @totoroben 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Get a heat distribution pot for this, your boil will be faster and less refueling

    Great review Martin 👏 Really like the style of this one. Stove looks good too. I'd say it was primarily designed as a twig stove and someone realised it would take an alcohol stove too and would make it easier to sell? You need to get a v2.0 patented before Lixada get their act together 😉🤣

    • @soletrail
      @soletrail  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      🤣 noted pal. Yep it's a good stove. Very handy. Its so so light and you are getting alot of titanium for the cost. Cheers for the kind words. I recorded this one differently

    I have one of those - I think mine is Tomshoo but the same thing. Quite expensive for what they are.
    I found using a wood stove really stressful, I hunted for twigs and even brought wooden kitty litter (yes it works!) and weirdly found pine cones just refused burn even with lots of tinder - cotton wool etc, and twigs...and I had a massive stack of twigs under my tent cover to keep them dry...Didn't matter, I usually ran out of them before I even got water boiling. I was using the Lixada Titanium cup - the 750ml one with coffee press, and it was cold and October, and fairly damp so dunno if that had a bearing. I abandoned that trip in part cos of it (my fault taking a fairly untested stove out with me).
    I have a Biolite I've never really used in anger - too heavy - but at that at least has a fan and more enclosed chamber, seems to burn really well,, but this one jjust seemed to burn twigs too quickly to actual cook or heat anything.
    Interesting though, found your video just as I was looking into maybe getting a Des Catty alcohol stove and needing a windscreen. Was going to sell it, but if I can reuse it for that I am totally going to!
    Also you might have already found out - but when used as a wood stove be REALLY careful. I lost most of a meal once when using this cos it tipped over. It's dangerously top heavy in that configuration. For that reason I might try the smaller single level with the Des Catty if I get it.
    Maybe I need to make a video about what happened with this stove...

      Hey Tim, "I totally get what you mean about the Tomshoo stove. It can be a bit pricey for what it is. I've had my fair share of struggles with wood stoves too. Finding dry twigs and battling with damp weather can be quite frustrating. I guess it's all part of the adventure, but sometimes it can lead to unexpected challenges.
      I've heard good things about the Des Catty alcohol stove, and it's cool that you're considering repurposing the Tomshoo for that. And thanks for the tip about its top-heavy nature in wood stove mode - safety always comes first.
      You know, making a video about your experiences with the stove and how you've dealt with its quirks could be quite interesting. It might help others who are in a similar situation. Anyway, happy camping, and I hope you have better luck with your next trip!"

      @@soletrail I might do that - I have some photos from that trip of me using it, so I could do that - after cookware my next video could be about the stoves I have. Far too many, is the answer. Would be interesting to contrast the wood stove, the new alcohol stove when it arrives, and my Pocket Rocket.
      I settled with the Speedster alcohol stove cos you can get a simmer ring with it - I know you can make one for those stoves, but one that fits already is a bonus. I am going to make a stand from a clothes hanger, and have a cheap Chinese titanium windshield coming, but might make a temporary aluminium one in the meantime.

    The 200 grams is a bit for a cooker plus added alcohol weight. But, sticks are everywhere!

    Will this camp stove fit in the titanium 650 ml cup or 750 ml cup u had in this video

    Russian dolls Lixada style! Very good stove, shame you can't pack/fold it like the square one which packs flat, will it take a trangia burner you think? Tnx for the video, spot on 👍

    • @soletrail
      @soletrail  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for your comment! Yeah, the Lixada stove does have a different design compared to the square one that packs flat. As for using a Trangia burner, I'm not entirely sure, but it's worth experimenting with. Its all about the flame height but I can check for you. Glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful! 👍

    • @totoroben
      @totoroben 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You can put it in your cook pot though, just like a gas stove and tank. I would use the mesh bag to control the soot.

    That’s actually a gasifier stove, you over fed it.
    Keep the fuel below the holes on the inside chamber.

    bonjour so which one is the best ?

      Alcohol stoves all the way. Love them

    I have this stove and the setup time alone is worth it. Those other stoves you gotta build? No thanks.

    • @soletrail

      Fully agree. It has so many functions. Just love it.
