Have you ever actually used unleashed gas in it? I have one that’s dual but I am afraid of putting gasoline in it. I guess it is because I know it explodes when I try to start a fire..

Would like to see more of the excursions

long time craft vendor here - the long guys are great IF you have room and are on dirt, we show on pavement often so we use 5 gallon buckets of water ratchet strapped running up the leg to the tops of the leg , also in high winds a pair of straps forming an x in the sides helps reduce the twisting action we like the commercial type canopies with the center lift pole to us it seems to be stronger-but lower headroom. Pool noodles in the corners of the top helps shed water also. ALWAY stake or weight down guys we like the doggy augurs best with the ratchets . we once saw a canopy Sucked up AFTER a storm 200ft up flipped over and dropped on a car !!!! be safe and have fun

would a portable generator be able to handle the 12000 btu or are the surges pulling too much

T’was a good time. I love that spot. Such a cool area close to home. I’m going to need to try that breakfast one day. It sounds good.

Looks like a great time you guys had. Dry lake is such a pristine location So how many times did it take you to do the bear line?

I loved everything about this video. Tip: you do not need from 0 to 70 degrees on the y axis -- just start at 70. I am about to get a windscreen for my trangia. Vey useful information.

does the piping in your house have to be 3/4 or can i just put a 1/2 to 3/4 adapter to fit the 3/4 ball valve?

so i have a 1/2 inch outlet at the spigot. using a 1/2 inch hose 200ft. if I have 80psi, would I get the same output as yours or would I need a 3/4 inch outlet at the spigot along with a 3/4 inch hose?

I just purchased a used but in great shape 421 dual burner. What is the best way to store my stoves fuel tank? Should I empty the remaining fuel back into the Naptha container, or leave it in the tank if I'm not using it for months. Couple more questions, can I add fuel stabilizer in my metal container and lastly to if I do empty my fuel tank and it is stored for a length of time, how can I prevent rust build up inside the tank? Any thoughts ?? thanks

Great video. Just subscribed.

Did they find out the cause yet?

This is just soo sad because now it’s moving to our side now

Not sold anymore. Don't waste your time

I still have a bunch of military gear that I still use, and people are always surprised when it works better than their high-end outdoor stuff.

I learned the HD 12" nail trick years ago when out shooting in the Kalifornia desert. The nails could be pounded on rocks buried in the dirt and it would split them and dig into the ground. Pulling straight out was a no go. Simply use your hammer and tap the nail from two or three directions to widen the hole in the ground. They will come up. I used cutting board and cut pieces to "cap" the nails so my guy lines would not slip off. Drilled a hole in the cutting board pieces slightly less in diameter than the nails and tapped the caps onto the nails with a hammer. I painted mine neon green to make them easier to spot. They take a beating but never broke. I bent a few dealing with stubborn rock. They are cheap for what they can do. I use cut up U-post fence stakes for soft ground usage. When positioned with the u-shaped open end toward the tarp/tent, it resist being pull forward in soft ground.

I was looking for a full zip fleece coat and stumbled across the GI issue black polartec 300. It seems nice? what say you?

Yea we just switched over to propane, so much easier

The lighting lever, IN NO WAY, cleans the valve or anything else. It does one thing and one thing ONLY. It blocks or opens the fuel pickup orifice at the bottom of the fuel/air tube in the tank for instant lighting mode. It lets lots of air and a little fuel into the generator to keep it from flooding until the generator gets hot enough to vaporize the liquid fuel into gas. This process uses a LOT of air and more pumping is required to maintain pressure after it lights. This isn't like a lantern some stoves where the lever actuates the cleaning/regulating needle. The cleaning/regulating needle on these is directly connected to the valve spindle. This is a common misconception, so you're not alone. The most likely cause of the yellow flames you had, which are not normal, is a lack of pressure, insects shacking up in the burner tubes or mixing chamber, or "test opening" the valve before lighting and flooding the generator. The key to clean light ups is lots of pressure and holding the lighted match to the burner and QUICKLY opening the valve AT LEAST 2 full turns with lighting lever up and not throttling the valve during warmup. Open that sucker up. I recommend adding one pump per second immediately after it lights to maintain good atomization and clean burning until the generator start vaporizing fuel. After about a minute, flip the lighting lever down and add pumps as necessary to maintain a strong blue to seafoam green flame. I believe 35 pumps is what the instructions call for, but this is on a FULL tank of fuel with little head space. A half tank will require much more. Pressure is your friend and the built in pump cannot over pressurize the tank or cause a dangerous situation. They designed sufficient air space at the bottom of the pump tube when the plunger is fully seated to make over pressurizing impossible. Don't be afraid to add lots of pumps. Hope this helps some folks.

My favorite tent on the market still till this day

I have that stove but I bought a hose and a big tank for it works perfect

Is there only three videos in the series? How many I best continue the process? Tornado season here and I need to utilize for some garage work and seal her up a bit and this school of thinking is not my current capacity for a bit if I need to learn this skill. If I need to I will, and I'd like to avoid this mindset switch if possible.

30 mph winds is cute

the reason for the portables running the plug temp up is the molded plug on your appliance extension cord. the gfci on all of them provides a far better internal connection and doesnt heat up, the fridgidare uses the same amount of power as the whynter as they are the same capacity.

Very helpful considering blowing fuses is a big concern so I'll be getting a window unit now. Thanks!

Please make that other video! I have a propane/isobutane stove and I'm thinking of getting an alcohol stove. Maybe an overall comparison between the two systems? Efficiency, weight, simplicity, availability. Isobutane canisters are almost impossible to find, I had to buy a Lixada adapter so I can connect my MSR Pocket Rocket to a Coleman propane tank

Yo, I haven't even finished the video yet, but I like how you're measuring everything

Thank you 😮

Thats because of humidity, it's hard to cool a humid room.

I just tried this on my Batona trail thru hike and it was amazing.

Next level up is a ice bath.

My father in law bought this tent when my husband was a kid. They used it through his whole childhood and then when we got married we began to use it. We used it for another 10 years (the tent now 25years old) before retiring it and bought ourselves a new one (same tent) it's been through every kind of weather and we have always been dry and warm! Will never own anything different. We also have the vestibule and full rain fly

Are you a LEO

I have a question about what to do with the left over fuel you may have in the tank. Do you drain that out?

I know this is an old video. But it's the best one I've seen for the lunar solo. VERY well done. Thank you!

"Promosm" 👏

Ultralight ramen! I learn something new every day. Thank you Ultralight Backpacker!

Hey there! Just caught your video of whipping up some ramen in the backyard - pretty sick! Looks like you've got the ramen game down pat, and those brands you suggested? Spot on. Snagged a few myself after your tip. And cheers for dropping that link to the ramen in your video description; I'll be diving into that for sure. Keep rocking it and stay sharp out there!

Anthony does know a thing or two about a good noodle. Always nice to play with some gear.

Dual hose would have been a more fair comparison.

I have the usmc polartec fleece and I’m thinking about buying the lightheart gear fleece. I already know the ups and downs of the polartec. What one would you recommend?

Great video! Where are the smoking areas?

I’ve never been on a cruise. Do I need to bring my passport for this since it’s along CA Coast?

How do you reinforce the loop?

My Rucas burns much longer & has never taken that long to bloom. Of course a priming pan, I use a can lid, helps any stove bloom quicker.

More focus on the middle burner would have been nice (power, homogeneity). Sidenote: It's NOT a piezo lighter. It's obviously electronic.

This is my camping percolator and it makes great coffee. I'm glad to see you don't have it boiling hot because that scortches your coffee in my opinion. Just a slow perk is great! Thanks for the video!

When I was a Marine we used these stoves on our many trips to Greenland. We had one stove per two Marines and we bet our lives on them. They always came through. They cooked our meals, kept us warm, and dried out our wet gear in the tent! I love this little stove and bought one a few years back. They say a certain Folgers coffee container fits this stove, but I have not been able to find it. Trying to buy the original Coleman case is near impossible, so I bought a metal pot that kind of fits it. Great video! Thanks!😊

Thanks for the video. I have a lunar and basically love the tent but can never obtain a 6" bathtub floor. On a trip last year the rear of the tent floor was compromised and I ended up surrounded with water. Any help would be appreciated.
