    Nice piece of kit. A little on the high side. Is it Titanium or Stainless? Would like another review after you have actually used it for awhile to know how well it is holding up , handles and what not. Thank you!

    Awesome system, I have the solo stove but i don't have the pot yet, I never realized that the stove will nest inside the pot...cool! great video! Blessings and Take Care

      @livingsurvival  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      The pot is very nice, I recommend getting it since you already have the stove!

    Cool design, I still shy away of purchasing a hobo stove because I think, if I can make a fire, why carrying a stove, lol. But maybe I change my mind some day. Thanks 4 sharing, Marc

    • @livingsurvival
      @livingsurvival  10 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      There are a lot of places where fires are not allowed (state land) and also when hiking on a mountain for example, not always the easiest. Plus it is faster and less cleanup. Thanks for watching!

    I agree with what Texas Jedi mentioned earlier that is does sit high or tall and fear of it tipping over. I follow up review would be cool.

    I have two Solo Stoves, but it wasn't until today that I ordered the 900 pot to go with one. Solo Stove had a 20% off deal for Memorial Day weekend. Yee-Haw . . . I can't wait for it to come! As always - nice review my spikey-hair friend. :-)

    • @livingsurvival
      @livingsurvival  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      yeah man, that completes the set ;)

  • @jerrybobteasdale

    The stove seems to be a good one. And if you have the stove, why not get the pot, too?

  • @Oldsparkey
    @Oldsparkey 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I found that the stove works better for me by putting small sticks in the chamber and filling it up to just below the top air vents before lighting it. I start my fire from the top so it can burn down to the wire grate.
    The little alcohol burner placed where the wood goes is nice for when you want a quick hot drink.
    On a different note the little alcohol burner might end up staying at home ( one last thing to carry ) after I try this.
    Since the Solo Stove is constructed the same as the Bushbuddy.......TomsBackwoods on TH-cam ( Bushbuddy Alternate Fuel ) video took 3/4 oz of alcohol and poured it in the bottom of the ash pan ,then lite it and under 4 minutes had water boiling with just over a 4 minute burn.

    • @livingsurvival
      @livingsurvival  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      yeah i end up keeping my alcohol stoves at home as well.

    • @gunterpatee4963
      @gunterpatee4963 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm a student of both the bushcrafty thingy and the ultralight thingy. You can MAKE a whole 'cooking system' for just boiling water for dehydrated meals for under 8 ounces easy if you're an Ultralighter however ..Firepower-vs-Mobility is a military concept that is a transferable concept and the ultralighters usually miss this. I also notice a STRONG dependence upon the 'civilized world' among ultralighters - they are not self-sustaining; they are fragile with their GossamerGear fuffery.
      The solo stove is a beast and that's a fact. I just wish they'd make a .25 oz alcohol stove insert at the right 1" sweet spot under the pot that was HELLA lighter than any Trangia - after all, if imma us any alcohol stove, imma want it light enough to blow away in the wind.

    It looks good. At 04:16 there looks to be measurements inside the pot.

  • @randymcknight8603
    @randymcknight8603 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just one question. How long does it take to cool this thing off?

    • @livingsurvival
      @livingsurvival  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It actually cools off very quickly. Within about 5-10 minutes it is cool enough to put in the stuff sack, if you dump the coals which usually is just ash since it is super efficient.

    • @randymcknight8603
      @randymcknight8603 10 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @ehatley

    • @livingsurvival

      Joe Little I will do a follow up, thanks for the comment.

  • @johngayley2588
    @johngayley2588 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    hi, in your honest opinion, which stove do you think is better this solo stove lite or the silverfire scout? based on price, weight, size dimensions, and ease of use/burns more efficiently.

    • @livingsurvival
      @livingsurvival  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      two different sizes really. the silver fire compares more to the titan in size but I feel the titan is more efficient and more manageable. plus i like solo stove's pots better and the two piece construction. the silver fire scout nests nicely in the MSR pot but it's an odd pot size for me. i like the titan i just reviewed better than both but with the two you mentioned I'd take the silver fire scout stove. for a smaller option I really like the firebox nano.

    • @johngayley2588
      @johngayley2588 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have the 1.8 liter mors aluminum pot. The black one. I really like and use it over fires but I want a wood gasifier cooker to use with it. So I was looking for your opinion because youve tested both. Your advice would be truely appreciated.

    • @livingsurvival
      @livingsurvival  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      John Gayley If the silver fire fits go with that or the titan.

  • @rolomanification
    @rolomanification 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    It looks like the stove gets pretty sooty after use. How hard is it to clean afterwards? (especially if you're packing it after use)

    • @livingsurvival
      @livingsurvival  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      only the inside and depends on what type of wood you use, avoid pine. stays actually pretty clean in the stuff sack.

    • @baroneb5043
      @baroneb5043 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      what stove stove doesnt get sooty when u use it ?

  • @djtetrapak
    @djtetrapak 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you prefer this stove or the SilverFire Scout? Would you say the scout is more secure with its wider base? Great videos btw! You've earned a subscriber!

    • @livingsurvival
      @livingsurvival  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      both great stoves. I like the packability of the solo stove a bit better being that I have more use for a pot than the MSR pan the SFS nests with.

    • @livingsurvival
      @livingsurvival  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Alexander Teel CDP I carry a scouring pad or scotch brite pad and it works well with water to get it off. You can also use sand if you are by water.

    • @barryschwienteck5412
      @barryschwienteck5412 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is essentially a direct-copy of the Fritz H Bushbuddy stove. Fritz never patented his design, and Solo ran with it. The only minor difference Solo made was to use 3 pot-legs on the upper portion where the Bushbuddy used 4. NOTE: the bottom/lower portion of this stove does NOT get hot when burning (no heat transfer to the ground) ... you can actually pick it up with your bare hand (grab lower holes) and move it during use.

    This is a TOP LIT STOVE! You are using it like a hobo stove. It should be lit on top of the biomass, then it will burn down and start the gasification process. You are not getting the real benefit of the stove. This is a wasted review.

    I hate seeing a product review when the product is shiny new
    There is a lack of credibility when you have not even used the product yet
    Please go away use it for a couple of months and show us a sooty creosoted pot and stove
