Dear Crispin, It is a stove made out of stainless steel and fireproof glass to stand in the lobby of hotels etc. for both heating and display.Some people was trying to refill with alcohol, while is was still burning, which is hard to see while it burn with an almost none visable light blue flame. Gives very serious burns due to the sticky "fluid" flames, more or less like petrol. Otto

What is it they are refilling? Thanks Crispin Dear stovers, To your information:Bioethanol, a very clean burning fuel, but due to a lot of incidents and several people burned during the refilling process, will most likely be baned to be used in open fireplaces in Norway, very soon. Liquid fuel should be treated with care and caution in an open fire situation. Lessons learned should be communicated to the people introducing these type of fuel and stoves for cooking in developing countries, too. Good luck with the ETHOS conference in Seattle Otto _______________________________________________ Stoves mailing list to Send a Message to the list, use the email address [email protected] to UNSUBSCRIBE or Change your List Settings use the web page http://lists.bioenergylists.org/mailman/listinfo/stoves_lists.bioenergylists.org for more Biomass Cooking Stoves, News and Information see our web site: http://www.bioenergylists.org/
