Dave - the Esbit stove is actually pretty good. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> You can burn the hexamine tablets or the old military style trioxane tablets, and it conveniently folds up when done. It's really just a variation of an empty can (like a tuna can) with holes punched in it. That's what we did in VietNam - empty C-ration cans with holes punched in and burning trioxane tablets. Many, many cups of instant coffee and meals were heated that way! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
It does look like a good stove and for the price, I can't think of anything
much better. Think I'll be picking one up this week.
Also, I'm going to look at building a sterno stove this year too.
I should be able to come up with something that will work.
Thanks for the idea on the C-ration cans Tom.
I see much experimenting this winter <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
