vendor friday stove (fuel??? & reclaim)

[VanHornWhitewater]

Hi Mark, Do NOT use any other fuel aside from methanol or ethanol in this stove! Isopropanol may be used in an emergency, bit it will dirty-up your pots. Fuels such as gasoline, napthas (Coleman white gas, Zippo fluid, etc) present an explosion hazard. Longer-chain fuels such as kerosenes, Jet A, diesels, liquid paraffins (lamp oil), whale blubber, etc., will burn extremely dirty and will most likely not vaporize enough fuel to sustain flames from the burner ports. As far as reclaiming unused fuel goes, I found a nifty little plastic 80ml cup that I keep in my personal kit. You can easily stash a Dixie cup, or Nyquil dosage cup, etc into your kit. I dump unused fuel through the burner ports, into the cup, and pour back into my fuel bottle. You can see this at the 11:39 mark in the third video on our website. After a while, you get used to the stoves characteristics and know approximately how much fuel you need for the job, minimizing the amount of leftover fuel.
