Stovers,

The work by Jed (Joshua Guinto) and his mentors Rok Oblak and Richard Stanley merits closer attention. I looked at the report (link is given below) and saw much more than a pretty stove. There is serious design work evident. Be sure to see the sectional diagram showing the fuel and air flows.

By the way, Roket is the correct spelling for the Rocket stove technology as modified by Rok to use the holey briquettes.

Now, serious testing and possible refinements (relating to the briquettes, gaps, grates, secondary air holes, materials, etc) is justified and needs some outside support.

I hope that someone with funding resources has actually read the preceding sentence. Funders who claim to be "technology neutral" but insist correctly on supporting the best stoves need to be more supportive of the grassroots innovations. A small amount of assistance can mean great progress later.
