EcoZoom Versa Rocket Cookstove Wood, Charcoal or Biomass Fuel
The Original - EcoZoom Versa Rocket Stove - Wood, Charcoal or Biomass Fuel. Efficient, Versatile, Durable - Rocket Stove T. He EcoZoom Versa is the most fuel efficient and energy saving way of cooking your meals on outdoor adventures, camping or in emergency situations. The EcoZoom Versa uses dried biomass, stick wood and charcoal as fuel. It's extremely efficient, so all you need is a handful of sticks to cook an entire meal.
You can also enjoy the taste benefits of wood & charcoal fired food. Efficiency is measured by a 50-60% reduction in fuel use compared to an open fire, with corresponding reduction in smoke emissions (up to 70%). Versa Stove: Clay tile base as air reservoir, air heater & thermal mass.
Fibre insulation; cast Iron fire grill and hob. Stainless steel handles and silicon grips; Steel lining internal and external. Oxford cloth internal and external sheath; closed cell foam liner. Handy Velcro pocket (for firelighters etc). Stove concept provides conditions for the perfect fire by using thermal mass pre-heating/drying of combustion air, a supply elbow to create air turbulence/mixing of fuel/air and a highly insulated combustion chamber which gets hot fast and ensures smoke from the pre-burn gets burnt in the secondary effect.
Sometimes you can hear a'rocket' sound, hence the name. The heavy duty, cast-iron hob of the Versa also absorbs heat which is re-radiated onto your pot for more heating power. Adding doors to a rocket stove allows multi-fuel use. For fuels which need less oxygen such as charcoal the upper insulated door remains closed, and air is supplied from the lower, air intake door which can be used to control the burn. Rocket Stoves were invented by the Aprovecho Research Station in Oregon in the'90s, with Ecozoom being a spin-off project to expand sales into developing nations to reduce local demand on biomass/forest cover.
Sales within developed nations support this ongoing work. Please provide mobile number for courier.
