Dear Bob
Sounds like you need the better stove and a good solar charge LED lantern.
Coconut husk are pretty smoky as well. Upper respiratory infections and
coughs
a major health problem in the Marshall Islands as well.

Subject: [Stoves] Chimneys can be excellent and indoor air crucial
Chronic coughs and upper respiratory congestion are wide spread and
serious for the Maasai. The women and children love living in an
environment free to breathe and with no eye irritation. With a tall
chimney for good draft and a well designed fire box they can have benefits
of efficiency and better health.
We must deal with people and their homes, not with abstractions. I bet
no one on this stoves list would sit and cook alongside a Maasai woman for
more than a few minutes without a chimney.
We have overheard Maasai kids trying to convince others to get their
parents to buy a stove because life is better. That is about indoor air.
The stove is expensive. A goat and a half.
