BRS Outdoor Kerosene Stove Burners Portable Oil Stove Gas Stove Multi Fuel Stoves Camping Cooking Stove (BRS-8A)

I’ve had this little stove over a year now, used it about 10 times camping and it does a great job at boiling water or cooking. First off is the lighting instructions, it needs to pre heat first. Easiest way to do it is to attach the hose connection, snug do not over tighten. Make sure the fuel valve is off, pump the fuel bottle 15 to 20 times. Slightly open fuel valve to allow a little fuel to fill the small cup area around the brass jet nozzle on the burner assembly. Turn off the fuel valve, light the burner area, long bbq lighter works good. Allow the fuel to burn and pre heat the burner. Should be about - minute maybe longer in colder temps. The stove will start to hiss and the flames will start to turn blue. At this point open the fuel valve slowly to the desired output. The stove may surge/ pop a couple of times but will settle down. If done right you will not! Get a large fireball when lightning.Reading other reviews I can only guess they are not letting the stove preheat before open he fuel valve or using too much fuel to preheat.My only con with this stove is that it really doesn’t allow for smaller flame to simmer, but then again it’s design is to boil water quick, which it does.

Now this is the thing when you like this thing you're going to have flame on the bottom and flame on the top you want to put a metal plate on the bottom of this so when you light it it don't burn any of your surroundings unless you're outside on the ground the flame's going to shoot up about 10 ft at first it's supposed to do that there ain't No Way around it but after the flames gets going you're going to have a nice hot flame that's going to last until the bottle is empty or until you put it out very simple to use if you don't like high flames when you first like the thing then don't get it but like I said it's supposed to do that

The port gas jet clogged and needs cleaning to function well after each use.Difficult to keep low heat.Release of pressure only possible by removing pump, which spews gas everywhere. If done too quickly, will burst sealing o-ring.

So I'm a bit of a camping stove collector (my mental illness, not yours :-)), which is why I bought this. First one I ordered leaked persistently at the plunger. I disassembled for inspection, and was puzzled how this thing seals, particularly under pressure. There just seemed to be a missing o-ring potentially, but there was no obvious spot to contain one. Returned and reordered, new one not leaking. Disassembled and it looks the same. Otherwise the unit operates pretty much like an XGK. It does not seem to have been engineered or assembled anywhere near the quality of an MSR stove, and particularly the pump seems very flimsy. This stove will probably never see a backpacking trip, let alone any alpine climbing or snow melting, as I don't trust it to work properly under critical service needs. Will probably resell it once I'm done fiddling with it.

This stove works pretty good if you know how to use it. It will burn down your camp or cabin if you don’t. The instructions are obviously foreign written and not at all explicit. To light it, you need to crack open the fuel valve then immediately close it then light the burner and wait until it almost goes out, which is almost a minute. then you can slowly open the fuel valve. If you don’t, fuel will pour all over the stove base and whether it’s sitting on including the fuel hose and tank and it will all burn uncontrollably

A really good product, It works with gasoline, excellent value for money

This stove is easy to light and produces a very high heating power: I don't know yet if it's reliable on the long term, but for the moment it does the job very well.

very compact and works very well

Does not run on pure diesel or paraffin only 30 percent petrol and 70 percent diesel / paraffin. Very loud though, boils water in minutes. Excellent value for the money

La relación precio calidad es súper favorable. Cero fugas, la use con gasolina blanca y no es difícil de encender si se hace bien y con cuidado en poco tiempo está lista para empezar a cocinar.

Trae dos espreas del mismo tamaño y no se puede usar con gas!

Eine deutsche Anleitung wäre super und eine Dichtung am Brenner wären super. So wie er geliefert wird tropft das Gerät. Ein O-Ring mehr und ich wäre fast begeistert. Das Asbest ist natürlich nicht so schön aber auch das kann man austauschen. Wer sich diesen Brenner zulegen möchte sollte sich bewusst sein, dass man noch ein wenig nachrüsten muss.Ich hatte ihn jetzt mehrfach mit auf Touren und war zufrieden. Leider muss man oft und gründlich reinigen. Diesel werde ich nicht benutzen.

Der Kocher ist richtig gut und das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis super. Er hätte 5 Sterne verdient, wenn er kein Asbestgewebe ( ist in der EU verboten) enthalten würde. Man muß also erst einmal das Asbestgewebe entfernen und durch ein geeignetes anderes Gewebe (z.B. Glasfasergewebe) ersetzen, um den Kocher benutzen zu dürfen. Dass er keine elektronische Zündvorrichtung hat, sehe ich nicht als Mangel an. Bei feuchtem Wetter funktioniert diese sowieso nicht.Ich würde den Kocher wieder kaufen und kann ihn nur weiter empfehlen.
