GET THE MOST FROM YOUR ALCOHOL STOVE!!

EXTRA WIDE 5 1/2"

Due to requests for our better windscreen as a replacement for inferior or other windscreens you can now purchase it separately. The windscreen also will serve as a potstand and will accept very heavy pots full of water. Forget the aluminum foil screens that just blow away, this one works! Please see the website below for more pictures of it in use. The Extra Wide model only weighs a smidge over 3/4 oz., shipping weight is just 3 oz with a reusable tube that works well to store it and your alcohol stove in.

Unless the conditions are absolutely perfect, you will need a windscreen to hold the flame where it belongs with any kind of breeze and contain the heat in a concentrated area. This will improve the performance of any alcohol stove. The windscreen will anneal the first time it's used and will try to retain the round shape. This is normal and can easily be flattened again if this is the way you carry it. It's also normal for it to turn brown or black after the first use and does not affect the functionality. Workmanship is excellent and if needed your windscreen can be altered with heavy scissors to fit your cup or pan handle. Your new windscreen measures about 18 1/2" long and makes about a 5 1/2" circle, it's 3 1/4" high. I've had requests for a wider windscreen to support 8" pots, this is the perfect answer. Of course you can always use your tentstakes or some copper wire pushed through the vent holes to handle smaller pots.

The shipping weight is only an ounce more if you need a new alcohol stove to go with your windscreen. You can purchase the stove and windscreen with instructions as a "Buy it Now" or bid as you see fit. Please see my other auctions and be sure to visit my website with some great pictures of the stove and windscreen in action. It's amazing how well this superior light weight equipment performs!

A COUPLE NOTES FROM INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS:

I like the fact that you adopt children. I saw such horrible things done to people whilst I was in The Paratroop Regiment. I did tours of Northern Ireland and Oman also Dhofar, all between the 70s and 80s. I think that anyone seeing things like that, and not wanting to change it, well there is something not right.
I donate a percentage of my sales to a Children's Hospice in Wales UK. And although it's a drop in the ocean, it's also rewarding to see the kids enjoying themselves in any way they can.
I do hope you keep in touch even after any sales, as it's a real pleasure to meet the good guys.
 
In all my time on eBay I have met some good honest traders, but Jim goes way beyond that. I live in England, yet feel so secure buying from this man that the word honest goes no way near describing what makes this man what he is.
If you have any doubts at all buying from this man...Forget them...Buy Buy Buy.
Thanks Jim, your a real star.
STEVE.
 

HERE’S A LETTER FROM CUSTOMERS IN NEW MEXICO:

We ordered two stoves, windscreens and 20 oz. cups. We have used them twice and they have been absolutely outstanding. In the back country at Bandelier National Monument, New Mexico, at 7000 feet altitude with +/- 17 ounces of water they get to a rolling boil in 5.5 minutes and maintain the rolling boil for another 6.5 minutes using 1.5 ounces of denatured alcohol. To be quite honest, you have spoiled us rotten with these. Outstanding product, price and quality.

Also, the water we used was from the stream in Frijoles Canyon. We filtered the water with a hankerchief and used a Steripen to purify it. So the water was not "soft" by any means. Probably did not need to use the Steripen as your stoves would maintain the rolling boil for 6.5 minutes but what the heck. Cryptosporidium and giardia is present in that stream according to Park Rangers. Better safe than sorry.

The pictures are from two recent different Bandelier National Monument back country trips using your stoves as we talked about in ebay messages. On these trips we did not use the included windscreen and cups because the MRE packets would not fit in the cups (however, they work like champs as well). Nothing a canteen cup stand, canteen cup, tin foil and wire could not solve. Stoves were the best part by far. Adapt, overcome and improvise!

You get one EXTRA WIDE windscreen with this auction, THE POT AND STOVE ARE NOT INCLUDED.

I usually ship the next business day after payment has cleared.

Please check out my other items!

There are no hidden profits or added packing fees in any of my auctions!!

(If shipping Internationally please allow plenty of extra time, 3 weeks is not unusual in some areas. First Class postage cannot be traced overseas and I seldom can tell whether it's been received or not if you don't respond. I haven't lost one yet and I do love the business from my International customers.)

GOOD LUCK!!
