As there seems to be an ever growing number of Podcast Bob/Backpackinglight superb (My opinion) Honey Stoves I thought I'd start a thread for pics of the stove being used in the various places it goes to.
It doesn't matter whether you're Paddington Bear posting pics of the stove on a visit to Deepest Darkest Peru or trialing it in your back yard ... Stick 'em up
.
Feel free to add a bit about where you were too the configuration you used, what the heat source was etc.
Odin Mine - Peak District.
Burner plate is used in the lowest slot in this pic - Pot is sitting on the top plate used in the mid slots. The position of the slot means that the trangia burner sits on the floor - which is why I've used the 'Ash Catcher' under the set-up.
Ladybower Wood - Peak District.
Here the burner plate is in the mid slot. The Mug is sitting on two tent pegs - the benefit I find of using pegs is that the burner can be removed without disassembling the stove. Many years ago I began taking a spare burner with me so I didn't need to wait for the burner to cool before I could refill it.
Owler Tor.
Same set-up as for the Ladybower pic.
Bimble in the snow - close to home.
Configuration is top and bottom plate in their respective slots. I used pow as the heat source. pow is bulky, smokey and hot ... but due to the cold temperature didn't last quite as long as the packaging claims.
Bimbling in the slush - close to home.
I find the trangia simmer ring fiddly when used with the Honey Stove - so I practice . In this pic all three plates are used. The green flame is caused by the copper simmer ring being purposely pushed partially off of the burner to allow a greater heat to bring the mug to a boil - it's then pushed back on to allow it to simmer.
R.C bimble - checking on the state of the Meet site.
Bottom and mid plates used in conjunction with tent pegs to support the Mug.
As above ... This pic show the benefit of learning to guestimate how much fuel (in this case meths) it will take to do the job - the stove is still alight ... but only just!
