You can buy, off the shelf at your camping supply shop, a sleeping bag that will trap enough body heat to keep you comfortable on a 0°F=-15°C night. The stove in the video is very efficient at moving all of the candle heat into his camper, with a heat exchanger circulating interior air and also enough exhaust pipe inside to trap the exhaust heat as well. But that camper is tiny, about two cubic meters of volume. Its walls look thick, and appear to have both radiative (foil) and convective (fiberglass) insulation. | |

And what do you say about this method? youtu.be/6ZnayOUQN28?t=788 The man in this video shows that only 4 candles allowed him to heat his cabin to +20 degrees when it is -11 outside. I understand that his cabin is small, but how was he able to get such a large amount of heat? | |
