It sounds like you will likely need to reinstall the wick so it sits higher.

Knife looks great, congrats. But these companies got to start stepping up with the sheaths. There are knives I haven't bought because of the added cost I was going to have to spend for a custom sheath. Unacceptable from a major company. Meanwhile I just got a cheap, no name $25 neck knife that came w/ Kydex.

This unit works very well kzbin.infoUgkxl2o1MQU4aMgmFk_cMqer4nH2ptpDEM6h Considering the price I paid for this, I didn't have high expectations, but now after using it, I consider this is a well designed heater. Do be aware that doing the dry burn on the wick as recommended (or at least every two tanks) is absolutely necessary to avoid an unclean burn, fortunately it's easy enough to do. I'm burning dyed K1 kerosene and do a dry burn every two tanks and this is working great. This unit will heat a little over the 500 square feet that it is rated for depending on the temperature. On days it isn't bitter cold this heater will do a fair amount more. This makes an excellent emergency heat source, and also in my situation, it is a little more efficient than the electric heat in the teen temps and below.

I purchased a PSA M4, it was one of the nicer models with free float hand guard and slanted weight relieved rails up top, m-lok all around. It was NOT a BLEM item, but the reciever extension (or buffer tube) had scratches all over the rear of it. Not a huge deal, but I paid $800 for a rifle, if it gets scratched, I wanna be the asshole who did it. I emailed them with a picture, and without even having to speak to anyone, 5 days later, they had a replacement part out to me in the mail.... Absolute 5 star customer service. I couldn't believe it!! They earned a lifetime customer that day. How's this AR10 holding up? How many rounds do you have on that stainless barrel, be interested to see how the MOA is on it after a few thousand rounds.

So this one you partially got correct. When you let a K1 heater run out of fuel ultimately what you're doing is doing a clean burn/cleaning the wick. What's happening is on all kerosene related wicks, heaters and lamps, carbon builds up on the end of the wick and makes it so fuel can't carry to the end of said wick and must be cleaned off to work properly. Now this is the part that most of us get wrong, including myself in the past. Most of us think the wick is ruined at that point, unless we read and remember the full manual that came with the heater. The part about this video that isn't correct is that a kerosene heater has to have the proper flame height otherwise it will give off carbon monoxide, black soot, or both. Having the flame too low is what is most known for the carbon monoxide, and you high puts off black smoke and carbon monoxide. Letting the flame run out of fuel does several things: it puts out larger amounts of carbon monoxide, gives off a pretty strong odor, and can create black smoke sometimes. In the manuals, and what is recommended for all heaters, it specifically says to drain the kerosene once a week of regular use, and then to light it and let it burn itself out of kerosene. The critical part is this is supposed to be down outside because it's unhealthy to breathe in what comes off the wick. People die every year from improperly running their K1 heaters, but really it just takes a little knowledge on the topic to have it run safely and efficiently. If you do this regularly then a wick can last many years as the top of all these wicks isn't cotton but fiberglass, the lower portion is cotton. My current wick is 8 years old now and still works like new. Hope this helps guys. Sorry this was so long...😂

Some say crush the top of the wick with needle nose pliers and then dry burn? Is this correct?
@Vinwelder8 ай бұрын
@@jazzsounds8159 if you're cautious enough sure. Basically you would only use the pliers to crush any very thick parts of built up carbon. But the tops of the wicks are fiberglass, so you gotta be cautious not to ruin that as the fiberglass is pretty thick. But you should be able to use the rest of the top for comparison and only crush the thicker parts. If in doubt then skip the pliers as that part isn't necessary in any way. It just speeds up the process a lil. You should check the wick after the dry burn to confirm its clean. Once you do it a few times you'll understand the process a little better, bit it's close to foolproof imo. 👍
@jazzsounds81598 ай бұрын
@Vinwelder I think I let go too long, I crushed the carbon build-up with pliers on top. Wasn't thinking about the fiberglass. We'll see tonight if it lights. A full tank of fuel took over 24 hours for a dry burn.
@Vinwelder8 ай бұрын
@@jazzsounds8159 Sorry I should've probably said this, but a dry burn is exactly that. Meaning you're purposely removing the K1 from the tank so it's empty. Then you bring it outside, light it, and let it smolder outside as it's gonna be super stinky stuff that smokes quite a bit. So you're literally trying to burn it until it extinguishes itself completely. Then and only then will the wick be cleaned. I'm not saying you didn't, but IF you didn't let it smolder then it has to be redone. I'm assuming you did this part though. If you don't have one a siphon is required to remove the K1 from the tank. A cheap old fashioned manual one works just fine, but nowadays for people that can't be bothered they have battery powered ones which are awesome a very fast. I got my original at home depot. I think I bought my 2nd one off ebay for pretty cheap. Hope this helps. I just had to go buy K1 myself as we're bout to get 2 more feet of snow here in Maine tonight/tomorrow. 😭

Don't get me wrong they do work but i would only use something like this unless I'm in desperate need of a fire and need it now. Especially of you say this is your main/primary kit. My main kits is a magnifying lens, paracord for a bow drill, and a flint an still with a tin of chard punk wood. I only have an use things like matches, lighter, ferro rod, cotton balls in petroleum jelly, an cotton pads in wax for when I really need a fire or the weather conditions are too poor for me to use my primary stuff.

With the orange container with storm proof matches, place 1 match on a fire catch get a second match & crush up place beside other match then use a scraper or knife scrap flint on back of container, before you start make sure the scraper is attached properly as they can fall off.
