    Have to say, that brilliant. Having the mesh inside to burn the fuel is genius. I think the one thing I'd like to see is perhaps a type of lid with maybe some holes to give it like a gas burner ring feel and one you can adjust the flame. I love fuel burners but the flame control is the one thing I wish could be improved on them. However, this looks a decent piece of kit. Thanks Jason!

    • @RamblingOn
      @RamblingOn  Рік тому +1

      Yeah that wouldn't be a bad idea to be able to simmer with it.. I'm going to try out a different stove with it and see how it goes but it is a genius idea to have the felt in there

      I have them too with my Alpkit 600ml and its awesome, used it on my 140km walks and its very fuel efficient but this X Boil one is more compact and fits in pot much better! So a bit more compact, but costs 2x or 3x more from what I see lol that the biggest con. Cannot beat Speedster Stoves prices! Everything on his website is so cheap comparing to other wayyy overpriced companies.
      I may get it one day, X Boil seems very cool.
      Cannot go wrong with either of them.

  • @Ottawa9one9

    Pretty cool kit. The "safety burner" felt is an advantage over a regular tangia style burner for knock overs. I wonder how the fuel efficiency would be for this versus a tangia type. Maybe @PaleoHikerMD can run some tests!

    • @RamblingOn
      @RamblingOn  Рік тому +1

      If anyone should test that it should be Paleo Hiker 🙌 I would imagine that the Trangia would be more fuel efficient but the safety burner has it's benefits. It's lighter weight, more packable and spill proof. Saying that you could add graphite felt to the trangia but would that affect it's performance? I'll give it a bash 😁

  • @bechilled3875
    @bechilled3875 Рік тому

    Got very similar system. How do you go with a 2nd burn though. So say with a trangia with 50ml fuel in get several burns, but I found with this type, pour in 50ml boil away. But later when come to 2nd burn I need to top up fuel, all I can think is that it continues to evaporate after being blown out. Was going do a proper text to check it was not my imagination, but not done so yet. Anyone else found this.

    • @RamblingOn
      @RamblingOn  Рік тому

      The Trangia style stoves have the little jets running around the top which vaporizes the fuel and creates a more efficient burn. They're surface area is also reduced in comparison and they have the wick on the inner walls which soaks up fuel so there may be slightly more capacity than 50 ml.
      I haven't had it out long enough to test it but I am hoping to use the Xboil with different stoves to try it out

    What’s the purple stuff you’re using to fuel it please? Where do I buy it from

    • @RamblingOn
      @RamblingOn  7 місяців тому +1

      Methylated spirits. Any hardware store should have it. It’s usually used to clean paint brushes. Bio ethanol will work too. It burns even hotter and cleaner than the methylated spirits but is harder to find

  • @rossfehily5354
    @rossfehily5354 Рік тому

    Nice one, just to confirm, they send a alcohol storing bottle but not the alcohol itself? Total newbie when it comes to alcohol stoves but interested in trying out! I take it we need buy the alcohol in outdoor stores? thanks

    • @RamblingOn
      @RamblingOn  Рік тому +1

      Hey Ross, no the fuel is not supplied. You can pick it up in a hardware store. It will likely be in the painting section and its called methylated spirits. It's a purple liquid, I bought a 5 litre drum and it had lasted me a very long time but you can get 500ml bottles too. There is also Bio ethanol which burns cleaner but I found it very hard to get hold of. Just be careful, the spirits leave a sutty residue on the pot so it is just something to be aware of.

      The price depends on the size required so I didn't see the need to go through each size and price individually. You seem to have it sussed, measure the diameter of your pot and that will tell you what size Xboil you need.
