Optimus Nova Stove
My "Flaming" companion
By Sub Zero Boyscout
Ranked #153 - Liquid Fuel Stoves
January 24, 2007
As in "FIRE"! This one won't quit. I take it everywhere. On a winter trip with temps hovering around the -2 degree mark, I was melting snow in about 2 minutes while my friends were still priming their stoves. On a trek last summer, in an area that resembled a scene from the movie Deliverance, I stopped in at a Maw and Paw shop looking to replenish my fuel supply. No Coleman fuel, no kero, and no siphon tube for Paw's ol' pickup truck. They did have Tiki Torch fuel, and it worked! I am sold. You'll be also.
