Its people like this guy I want as role model for myself and my kids. Guy’s talented and hard working. He’s a lawyer in Russia and when he gets a vacation, he goes into Siberia and stays in total wilderness, alone, cleansing himself from that negative mental(and physical) energy, that a big city cast upon one. I envy him. Its not that I don’t have a chance to get out- I don’t have that willpower to immerse myself with the nature on that level. Спасибо за прекрасные видео.

[@greenbeancasserole6646]

One idea to get more airflow is to increase the size of the part of the pipe that you put in the fire. You’ll heat more air, and if you attach a smaller pipe to the tent, the speed of the air will increase.

[@Advoko]

Good point

[@G4Nazarener]

The air will speed up from a big to a smaller diameter. But this will increase air friction and finally the air volume per time will be less.

This is great, I love the simplicity. I just fear coals falling below the opening of the pipe and pumping in carbon monoxide without your noticing. With a hollow log fire like this that's not very likely, but it could maybe happen. When I made my recent desalinator video I realized how good of a heater it would make to run the copper coil from the desalinator into a structure, then pipe the end back out again. Steam carries a LOT of heat, just the small coil I made could probably heat a sizable room. Dipping the coil in 1L of water boiled it in only a few minutes.

[@adekvate]

Ben, thank you very much for your expertly input! The first experiment with a U-shaped pipe (the intake is sticking out horizontally from under the log torch) would be more "bulletproof" in that respect... It is funny, when I watched your new video about the compact desalinator, I almost wrote in the comment section about this very video about tent-heating coming out in a day because both videos are about heating pipes and pumping something through them in an outdoor setting...)))) -------------------- P.S.

[@FredtheDorfDorfman1985]

You just have to add a short length of pipe that sticks out a distance from under torch, so coals don't get near pipe opening.

[@Vikingocazar]

I’m wondering if carbon monoxide would be a big deal given the fact that a tent is nowhere near air tight... very curious

[@FredtheDorfDorfman1985]

Chris Raabis good question. CO is lighter than air, and warm air would help it rise into the upper portion of the tent, then factor in wind blowing, a tent being far from air tight, and sleeping on the ground, or a cot, down low, I wouldn’t think it would be that big of a problem. A battery operated CO detector would be nice to clip on the tent wall at mid height, but it goes against the concept of living off the land, and requires batteries. Maybe a canary in a cage? Just kidding! Yea, extending the intake pipe out from under the smoldering wood would help, and fiberglass yarn/rope would be useful to seal the pipe joints, but not much CO would get sucked in through the pipe joints, from draft effect, anyway through the joints if they were good and snug.

Others have probably made this observation: The pipe no doubt gets quite hot. But there are probably insulating wraps with reflective surfaces that could be used to reduce heat loss between the log torch and where the pipe enters the tent. Obviously such insulation would need to be rated to withstand a fairly high temperature. Very pracical way to provide some heat to winter campers. Nicely done video. Cool gaiters.

How about extending the air intake end of the pipe to inside the tent? This heater is all about heating the air in the pipe, so why not start with warmer air to begin with. Plus, it would eliminate any resistance from trying to blow additional air into the tent (think: how do you blow more into an empty bottle). Oh, and it would also minimize heat energy loss from the tent. Great video!

[@sheepieworks4974]

if you have the air intake in the tent itself you wont have airflow since the difference in temperature becomes smaller.

[@goodvibes4891]

@@sheepieworks4974 still definately a thought though, if you set it up right you can have faster heating times in mornings if its cold or when initally setting up the tent, and just pop it off when you dont need it anymore

[@cookiemnstrs]

that will not work. The only way that would work is small fan. Likely that will cool the tent then heat it. Super heating cold air makes it move like this. Reason coffee makers need cold warm. Hot water freeze faster then cold. The only way to improve this is by making the log longer or harder wood and reduce air that reaches the wood or cool the smoke air and return back to the fire.

[@nathanfolkemer8392]

[@workworks4453]

WARNING: This is an interesting concept, but this very dangerous unless the inlet pipe is well away from the fire and you really understand what you are doing. Carbon dioxide is heavier than air and may collect around the bottom of the torch, especially if the melting snow creates a bowl around the bottom of the torch. Carbon monoxide is slightly lighter than air and will diffuse throughout the tent. Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are odourless, colourless, and tasteless, so there is no way to detect them without a electronic detector. Carbon monoxide forms a stronger bond than oxygen with the haemoglobin in your blood, so once you breath it in, your blood can no longer carry oxygen. Excessive levels of carbon dioxide effectively asphyxiates you. In many cases of carbon monoxide poisoning, only a blood transfusion, administered very quickly after exposure will save the person. Even minor carbon monoxide exposure that doesn't kill you can affect your strength and endurance for quite a while without treatment. Neither situation is desired if you are in your backyard, let alone miles from a hospital in the bush.

[@EvilEvilMonkey]

and this people is why you use a portable detector, also this is why he raised the log. increasing the distance from the fire and the end of the pipe...

[@mattmalenda6585]

You could probably have the inlet have a longer pipe, so that it would suck air not contaminated by CO, and still take advantage of the heat because of the fire, no?

[@Rocadamis]

I agree with this warning. Perhaps an "S" shaped pipe where the bottom bend is through and away (at least a meter away or so) from the bottom of the fire would be safer. That way there would be no chance of carbon monoxide to get into the pipe.

[@mattmalenda6585]

Fuzzy Wuzzy I would not describe a tent as well ventilated...

[@workworks4453]

Fuzzy Wuzzy, clearly, you have no experience with CO and/or CO2 poisoning. Your statement is EXTREMELY irresponsible. Graveyards a full of people that people that say "well they're doing it so it must be safe." Many people have died of CO and CO2 poisoning due to having a fire in their dwelling, even though they thought the building was "well ventilated." A closed tent in winter is definitely NOT a well ventilated space. Even if you have some ventilation where the pipe comes in and goes out, because CO2 is heavier than air, it will collect on the floor of the tent, so you might be fine until you go to sleep on the floor and then wake up dead. CO exposures at 100 ppm or greater is dangerous to human health, so it doesn't take much to make you very sick or kill you. Bottom line, pumping the air from below a burning fire into a questionably ventilated tent is not a good idea at all. You cannot count on the ventilation immediately around the torch because the torch changes as it burns, the surrounding snow melts, the wind direction/speed changes, etc. If the inlet pipe is at least a meter away from the torch and raised off the ground, it would be better, but even then I wouldn't sleep in the tent. I regularly winter camp in Alberta, and often in temperatures below -30 C, and sometimes below -40 C. There are lots of proven ways to stay even at those temperatures, but none of them involve sucking air from immediately around your campfire and pumping it into a predominantly closed tent. From wikipedia: "Carbon monoxide poisoning is relatively common, resulting in more than 20,000 emergency department visits a year in the United States.[1][8] It is the most common type of fatal poisoning in many countries.[9] In the United States non-fire related cases results in more than 400 deaths a year.[1] " The "many countries" referenced above are countries where people commonly have open fires in their dwellings.

[@gernand3289]

Maybe someone mentioned this already, but if you extend the lower end of the pipe into the bottom of the the tent it will draw the cooler air inside at the bottom of the tent and reduce the time the process takes. Obviously you wouldn't want any leaks in the pipe near the fire and smoke. This may also require a bathing suit, strawhat, tropical drink and a hammock.

[@christineagnew7777]

[@federicofalappi5189]

I think drawing warm air from inside the tent would reduce the airflow through the pipe. Not sure though

[@danconway5505]

Well Done Sir. accurate and concise. Oh by the way I tested it at 7500 ft on a smaller tent and was toasty. On a side note hang one of your pair of socks over the pipe and you will always have a dry pair. just the heat of the pipe will dry the sweat, they will smell but will be dry and warm nice for a start of a new day. I made my torch 2/3 of a meter high burned all night.

[@Bald_Monkey]

Wait, an opinion and some tipps from someone who’s actually tried and tested it, rather than just imagination? You sir must have gotten lost on the internet- this is youtube! Haha, good stuff! The length and girth of the log was actually a concern of mine. I’m still a bit unsure with the tent opening melting, but we’ll trying it out this winter anyway!

That’s what I was thinking. Or have a 3 pronged attachment on the end where you could place your boots or gloves on to dry them while relaxing.

@5dope we are not in a tent at the moment, we found an abandon moblie home someone took the aluminium walls and copper wire, we put plastic up for walls two winters in there. We have a 2002 camper and limo longer than the camper. But being outside living free. Two car batteries and a few solar panels. But those are new additions so to teach the wife music. I had a black tak, but let it go for bread to the poor took a 600 dollars lose on that. Pick on

@5dope I would imagine it stays about 55 degrees in a cave in Ky. We use pc fans for cooling about to do a video on cooler to ac unit a couple pc fans 1 cooler and milk jugs of ice. With a light, switch es and maybe a rheostat to adjust fan speed

[@BWOOHAHAHAAA]

Maybe put the intake end of the tube in the tent as well, preferrably near the floor of the tent, because the air temperature is lowest there. The airflow will be circular and you will lose a lot less heat. It will also prevents the airflow from being influenced by the wind.

Thanks brother, our non profit goes out to the bush in Canada to work with the homeless and are always looking for cool ways to cook and heat. Thanks for the video man.

Why did i just watch this in the sweltering Texas July heat. Maybe because looking at the snow and dreaming of camping cools me off a little. The video, technique, etc. Gets 5 out of 5 stars! Please design a system for me that will pump cold air into my house. My air-conditioning bills are terrible.

[@lancecombes]

Same, but from Kansas in my case, I could maybe, just maybe live with the heat, but because of the flooding we've had this year it's unbearably humid! I'm a winter man, it's easier to warm up than it is to cool off, you can add layers ad nauseum, but there's a limit to how many layers you can take off before you have to register as a sex offender, plus I kind of enjoy having the state and federal parks basically all to myself!

[@robcarpenter564]

Yeah Lance. I have said the same thing many times about adding or taking off clothes.

[@LovingTinha]

Mine a living area about 10-20 ft under your house, you will find that area will be significantly cooler being underground. Alternatively you could get Two Freezers, and connect multiple pipes between them to circulate around main areas to cool off those rooms. If you seal the pipes well, the cooling effect will spread out across the pipes and cover as much area as you like. Also make sure to cover up any windows. If you want another project. Build a large structure that will give your entire house shade, and basically create an enclosure around your house. This will cool off your house drastically.

[@Ira88881]

You took the words right out of my mouth. South Florida here, and I’m a little jealous. But not really.

[@unclefuddelmer9224]

Robert Carpenter ...It’ll take some labor But, reverse the airflow from underground. Here in PA the constant temp just a few feet below is 50* So bury some pipe (bigger is better) add a fan to circulate that nice cooler air into your house, or attic or garage or wherever.

[@4570Govt]

Having used discarded washing machine tubs for years as makeshift firepits while camping, I could see this same method being used to create a semi-permanent "barrel" that you could put any piece of wood or fuel into, with the tube extending down through the core. If you had a permanent straight section of pipe inside the barrel, it could be sized to accommodate the accessory pipe to extend into the tent for heating, as shown in this video. This 1. eliminate the need to source large diameter, dry timber quickly, and 2. Opens up the available amount of potential fuel sources that could be utilized. If you can pack in the tub, or store it at a permanently used seasonal site, it can be used over and over again, season after season.

[@southeastidahosuccessteam1491]

I like it. That tube in the middle would be perfect for a pipe and clear any chance of smoking debri falling. The Swedish torch however does last WAY longer, but what if you build the circle of logs around the middle pipe and built the fire inside around it?

[@jodyethridge7576]

Southeast might be onto something. If you used logs like he said and bound them with wire around the central core of the washer tub, you'd just be making a larger torch. Thanks, buddy, I've got an old washer tub that is in need of some experimenting.

[@walterpreedy7563]

You could also just have a single tube on a diaganol angle laying over a normal camp fire the hot air will still rise and probably just as quick and it will be easier to maintain the fire :)

[@UserUser-ww2nj]

I have just fitted a wood burner in a country house here in Ukraine , it works on the same principle that you have in mind , tubes going through the firebox, 3 from one side and 4 from the other , the ends that draw the air in also act as the feet . When you get it burning properly it gives out a huge amount of heat . Very clever idea
