About REDCAMP Mini Alcohol Stove for Backpacking
Overall Feedback:
90% positive
85% impressed by the boil time, but 15% found it slower
After drilling holes in the base of the stove, I reduced the boil time to 9 minutes.
While camping, it takes me 18 minutes to boil water, but it's okay since I have limited time.
I can boil 28oz of water in about 20 minutes at 80degF temperatures.
On this stove, it takes 12-15 minutes to boil 2 cups of water.
88% appreciated the durable construction, but 12% experienced issues
The product's quality is good for the price. Initially, I thought the burner was aluminum which worried me, but it's actually copper, which is durable and long-lasting.
I thought the brass would be thinner but it is quite thick and seems durable over the long run.
The product is fairly durable and light in weight.

87% found it easy to use
I found the stove easy to use, despite negative experiences with backpacking stoves in the past.
Stoves are simple and do not have skirts, which can affect them in windy conditions. However, a skirt can be used to cover them if needed. It's a great way to heat up items and stay warm in a tent.
I was able to get a fire in minutes that was comparable to my kitchen gas stove.
This stove is easy to use and burns quietly.

85% praised the flame control, while 15% struggled
The flame control/flame damper is a great addition.
I was able to adjust the flame and manage its spread to some extent.
I like the temperature control feature and it works very well.
I complained that the flame dampener/adjuster was not functional out of the box and too tightly attached to the lid, causing the lever to come off while attempting to slide it.

91% appreciated the wind resistance, but 9% experienced issues
I advise using a windbreak with the stove as it is very sensitive to wind.
