    I have one of these, but it goes out every time it runs out of fuel… anybody know what the problem? might be??

    In my recent Elm stove videos I have shown progress with secondary combustion. More vigorous flames, more blue flames, which show higher efficiency and greater heat output for the stove. The stove is now able to sustain the secondary flames even with the primary draft intake closed.

    Nice job, nice video. I checked out the pics of the tubes. Most new technology of secondary burn tubes use pre heated air. Your stove is burning very clean and hot. However you would see spectacular flames on low air settings if you can preheat both the main and secondary combustion air. You will see slow swirling blue, green, and aqua colors as the temps and burn of smoke go way up. You will also get higher flue temps and use even less wood.

    filler up with oak wood

  • slatterbench70:

    no, this is a wood stove only.

    It will take about 6 logs, roughly 4-5″ in diameter

  • firewoodguy2009:

  • thewrestlingfan80:

    this stove kicks ass

  • educationforu:

    I appreciate your efforts in creating cleaner burning wood stoves. I’ve been inhaling thick, toxic fumes produced by a neighbor of mine who uses an old, outdated wood stove. The smoke makes me short of breath, my home and belongings fill with odor, and gives me sinus headaches.

  • allymetoo:

    This Stove looks beautiful.

  • slatterbench70:

    all the videos I have seen are of experimental stoves. I guess you should contact them, and do google searches to see if there are production stoves out there. funny, as it is not a new concept. you’d think there would be something out there to buy. good luck.

  • bahdah1234:

    i have been trying to find a gasification stove to buy. are there any on the market?

  • H0LL0WBELLY:

    fab stove!

  • slatterbench70:

    Each stove is different, yet there are some basic things that have to be done to any stove in order for the secondary air to work. One factor is the size and placement of the tubes. another is the addition of insulation, whether it is firebrick or other types used to keep the coals and wood hot. there also needs to be a substantial bed of hot coals and dry firewood. either softwood or hard wood have been seen to work.

    I would like to know more about the baffle and air tubes the more simple the better. My stove might be difficult but it is an old army tent stove that I burn mostly wood and some coal occasionally. I run it through my fireplace chimmney it is like a pot belly stove to some degree and comes apart very easily.
