Dear Crispin, who wrote:
I tested recently a TLUD pellet burner that by opening a small door,
burns the charcoal afterwards. The gas flame was not as controllable
as the charcoal one but that is a quibble. There was no need to
transfer anything, it was just a sequential burner. The market price
is $5.50 and the production cost is $2.20 or so. That is with a metal
shell. With a clay shell it would be about $1.40 to make. I think that
is cheap. I will process the test results to see what the performance
in numbers was like.
We look forward to the performance results AND to seeing the details of
the stove. There are TWO aspects to examine. One is the TLUD
function. The other is the char-burning function. Promising new stove
designs need to be seen by many and need to be tested by several.
