    Well, I wasn't really looking for this, but I saw it while out riding my FXR. I couldn't not buy it. 1969 Jeepster Commando 4X4 recently restored. $4000.00

    You got a good deal. Best I've seen them go for is two for $15. And yes, I tested one out the last time I took my oldest on a little proving hike with his new gun and gear. With literally a handful of twigs and leaves, you can get a cup full of water to a rolling boil. Very simple to use.
    - All aluminum construction (feather light)
    - Cheap and compact (stocking a bunch is easy / is a good mobile cooking tool / makes for good charity items if the SHTF)
    - Need potable water... filter through a coffee filter, then boil in this little honey... a mobile life saver (for passing refugees)
    - Want to eat some of your freeze dried or dehydrated storage foods on the run... here's your water boiler to make it happen
    - Need to heat that MRE in some warm water... here you go.
    - Want to mix up some hot chocolate or instant coffee on your next hike... this will certainly fit the bill.
    - Need to sterilize that cloth dressing or do a bit of washing... on a small scale, this will work.
    - Need to cook up a can of ordinary soup... yup, it'll do that to.

    Way easy to use.
    - Unpack (2nd photo)
    - fill cup (item on right/2nd photo) with water
    - place full cup into the top of the stove
    - poke some leaves and twigs into the rectangular opening at the bottom of the stove
    - ignite
    - slowly stoke fire as required
    - In no time, you have boiling water.

    Hope that helps.

    Does anyone have any knowledge about these, ever used them etc...????

    I just love those neighborhoods. Lastyear, I bought a complete Natuzzi leather living room suite for $100.00. Sofa loveseat, two chairs! Easily $5000.00 worth of leather. The husband bought it as a suprise, the wife didn't like it.
