    Anyone seen this stove? 13.6k BTUs
    Not a lot of heat?
    $699 is a good price so 2 stoves for $1400 would be 800 SqFt and $27k BTUs?

    I looked at the literature,quite a while back,when they first started importing them from china.I have often thought finding a small stove,converting to 12v and putting in camper.It still seems a bit big for what i wanted,and,there is no provisions on their website for replacement parts.Looking at their other products,they are very over priced,on everything.One of those units should cost about 300 bucks,imho.

    I suppose a great market for one of those would be a "tiny house". But that 10lb hopper would just suck.

    Is that bad boy UL listed? Does it meet 2020 EPA exhaust criterion? No? I guess you might give it a pass due to the fact its cheap and on Amazon, but really, lacking a UL listing, it shouldnt be passed by any inspector. Also, 13,600 BTU/hr? Lets see......the typical midrange pellet is around 8300 BTU/lb, so in perfectly clean operating conditions, assuming peak efficiency, it will consume about 1.6 lbs/hr, exhausting the enormous hopper in 6.25 hours......ridiculous.
