| Why Choose the Solo Stove? |
| Forget the Fuel |
Gasify your Wood |
Travel Lighter |
Stay Green |
Be Prepared |
| Our stoves cook your meals with nothing but the twigs you collect on
your journey, eliminating the need for heavy, expensive, polluting
petroleum gas. It's easy to light, fast to boil and clean to use. |
A unique gasification and secondary combustion process lets our
stoves achieve a highly efficient and more complete burn. This means
you'll use fewer twigs to achieve a boil. It also means less smoke. |
The Solo Stove only weighs 9 oz and eliminates the need to carry
fuel canisters - a great way to lighten your load. It also nests inside
most pots leaving you with more space in your pack. |
By using renewable resources for fuel instead of petroleum, you're
reducing your carbon footprint. You'll also keep fuel canisters out of
the landfill. |
The Solo stove isn't just for backpacking; it's great to have on
hand when you're in an emergency or survival situation. You'll be able
to cook and will never need to worry about running out of fuel. |
How it Works
Designed with a double wall, the Solo Stove is a natural convection
inverted downgas gasifer stove. The air intake holes on the bottom of
the stove channels air to the bottom of the fire while at the same time,
channels warm air up between the walls of the stove. This burst of
preheated oxygen feeding back into the firebox through the smaller holes
at the top of the stove causes a secondary combustion. This allows the
fire to burn more complete which is why there is very little smoke
during full burn. A more efficient burn also means you'll use much less
wood compared to an open camp fire. The Solo Stove doesn't just burn
wood. It actually cooks the smoke out of the wood and then burns the
smoke not once, but twice!
The cooking ring's angled lip also
increases efficiency by directing heat towards your pot minimizing heat
loss. It also acts as a windshield while still allowing oxygen to flow
inward. The Solo Stove is indeed one of the most efficient wood burning
stoves you'll ever own.
Built to Last
Your Solo Stove is made by using a one piece construction process.
This manufacturing process allows us to use state-of-the-art precision
presses to form and shape solid pieces of high grade stainless steel.
The outer shell of your Solo Stove is actually one entire piece of
stainless steel with no seams or welds. The inner firebox and floating
ashpan is also made using one piece construction. This eliminates the
need for excessive welding and increases the overall strength and
lifespan of your stove. Nichrome wire, which has a high melting point of
2552 degrees Fahrenheit, is used for the grate.
