I don't understand why he has an air intake for the small bottom tank, When it's open to the room. and there's an exit for an exhaust for the top tank. The top tank is not combustible. There's no fumes coming off of it. Why would it have an exhaust. It makes no sense. I understand about pressure but this just doesn't make sense.

[@lmtn]

The air intake at the bottom and the exhaust at the top are part of the design to create a flow of air and facilitate combustion in the heater. The bottom tank likely draws in fresh air from the room to support the combustion process, while the exhaust at the top allows for the release of combustion byproducts, such as smoke and gases, out of the system and away from the room. This design helps maintain a controlled and efficient burn within the heater. While the top tank may not produce fumes itself, it's part of the overall system, and the exhaust helps remove any byproducts generated during the combustion of the material in the bottom tank. It's a common design in many heating systems to ensure safety and efficiency.

[@chrishouse5753]

​@@lmtn I would like to see how a small hot gas manifold might improve the design. smaller exhaust pipes with lots of bends in the heat sink before exhausting together in a large pipe. If the air flow is reduced you could hook up a small electric fan with a heat transducer. Also - I'm curious how other heat sinks would work besides the sand (glycol for example).

[@TheRealKalEll]

​@@lmtn Nope. No needle for an intake or exhaust pipe with a device run by 3 candles vented through a hole in your wall, this design is foolish.

[@jimf1964]

@@TheRealKalEll. Yup. I know the exhaust through the top is probably supposed to help heat the top tank, which is a sand battery, and the exhaust out the wall is for when using other fuels, but that one on the side is as stupid as his welding is bad.

[@Scandinavian_Pride]

I'm not sure about heating sand with candles, but dad built a round wood heater (for his shop) using a capstan from an old model wire drawing machine. Under the stove door, he made a vent he could slide open depending on how hot he wanted the fire to burn. When it was right, he would slide the vent open or close some and the heater sounded like a locomotive pulling off, haha. Flames would start shooting out the vent. Whoof, whoof 😅.

[@smartysmarty1714]

Nobody is commenting on what the costs of the candles (or whatever burnable goo he's using) and the alcohol are, but it's far from "free". I've looked into more concept heaters like this than I could ever remember, and it always boils down to fuel costs. You'd think the alcohol would be cheap, but when you multiply that by 24 hours a day for 30 days throughout the winter, it becomes as expensive as other fuels, at least where I live in WI. Much like all these "super economical NEW electric heaters" we see each winter, they all cost the same to use. A watt is a watt is a watt, no matter how you convert it. A 1500 watt heater uses as much electric as two 750 watt ones do, but these facts are always sidestepped until you break it down. The only truly free energy was stolen from Nicoli Tesla before the government criminals un-alived him, and to some degree solar and wind (both of which come with heavy baggage).

[@belovedamyjo8905]

Then you should use shortening... It will burn at least four times longer than a wax candle. Get a small old candle holder or small non melting material fill it with shortening and and a birthday candle to the center. The shortening is a great cheaper way to use these kinds of heaters and they work amazing. Maybe use the old cooking oil you were going to throw out. There's always away to burn clean used oils for fuel source. These heaters work amazing in my non insulated cinder block wall garage apartment. These are cheaper than you might think.😁

@@belovedamyjo8905it’s not the fuel it’s the energy density of said fuel vs cost.

[@lmtn]

You bring up a crucial point about the often overlooked costs associated with alternative heating methods. Indeed, even seemingly unconventional sources like candles or alcohol can incur expenses, especially when used continuously. It's essential to consider the long-term operational costs, and your analysis highlights the economic factors that often accompany such projects. The comparison to other fuel sources and the mention of the complexities surrounding "free energy" are valid considerations. Sustainable options like solar and wind energy, while not entirely without costs, do come with environmental benefits. Your insights into the broader context of energy consumption and costs are appreciated. If you have further thoughts or suggestions, feel free to share. Thank you for your detailed comment! 💡🌿

All energy is, logistics is not. Not even Teslas UNTESTED system. Structures and devices to get energy from A to B are subject to the elements, humans, wear, and tear. It still costs money for materials, maintenance, and manpower. Wind is free, turbines and power lines aren’t. Supposedly his system beamed energy from A to B. He never tested it. It took us years to find out the health effects of living under power lines. No telling what having energy beamed thru you would do. The fact that he was poor later in life is well known. He lied about inventions to settle debts. Like the box of junk he gave his landlord, so he wouldn’t get evicted. He was a genius, doesn’t mean he batted a thousand. That being said, it hard to call the system free when you have to drill a hole thru your house. I guess you could rig it near a window, but drilling a hole through a wall a a bridge too far for most ppl. Not like ppl have tons of scrap metal and pipe sitting around either.

You're absolutely correct! The fundamental principle you're referring to is the law of conservation of energy, stating that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form to another. While the project may not multiply the total energy produced by the candles, it explores creative ways to distribute and utilize the heat generated.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and concerns, Bill. It's great that you're interested in exploring alternative heating solutions for your home. Here's a response that addresses your points: "I appreciate your interest in this heating concept, Bill. It's essential to prioritize safety when considering alternative heating sources. The reason these heaters are often vented to the outdoors is primarily for safety. While it's true that you can make these units extremely safe, venting ensures that any potential emissions or fumes don't accumulate inside your home, providing an extra layer of security. Regarding your concerns about wasting heat, some designs do incorporate heat recovery systems to capture and reuse some of the heat before venting it outside, but this can vary depending on the specific design and model. As for the regulations in Massachusetts, it's always a good idea to check with your local authorities and building codes to ensure compliance before implementing such systems. Each state may have its regulations and safety standards for alternative heating sources. It's essential to abide by these regulations to ensure the safety of your home and community. If you're looking for energy-efficient alternatives to reduce your heating costs, you might consider exploring other options like improving insulation, upgrading your HVAC system, or using energy-efficient appliances. These measures can help you achieve a more comfortable and cost-effective solution for your 1000sq ft home. Thank you for sharing your concerns and ideas, and I wish you the best in finding the right heating solution for your needs. Stay warm, Bill!" 🏡🔥🌬️

[@AlmostCouture]

The vent goes outside because anything you burn causes fumes and soot. So the “dirty” smoke 💨 and fumes go outside and the heat from inside of the stove goes inside of the house through the other smaller pipe. A fan is usually added to the opposite side to push the heat through the smaller tube. There is usually an air intake pipe at the bottom so that air gets into the heating chamber. Depending on what you burn it can cause combustible gases or fumes. The air intake pipe helps prevent that. I’ve been watching a lot of vids on this and that’s what everyone is saying. So I hope that helps.

Sand is an inert substance and generates no power or heat of its own. It soaks up heat from some other source, (which has to be paid for), and slowly releases it to atmosphere. In other words it's the storage material in a storage heater. There is no and cannot be any such thing as a free lunch. Whether the heat comes from electricity, gas , candles, vegetable oil or whatever, it still has to be paid for and doesn't come cheap. Remember the video showing the insides of an LED lightbulb being stripped out and replaced by a small looped coil of copper wire, before refitting the plastic top of the bulb, and claiming that it can bring TV programs from around the world. Gullible people will see that video and convince themselves that it is an amazing idea, when in fact it is simply click bait, and anyone foolish enough to try it themselves soon find out just how far they have been led up the garden path.....And so it is with free energy generators, free heat apparatus, etc. It's a scam and a fraud.

​@@FrankBrown-c5lYou are wrong. There is a way to heat the sand for free. You simply use a large magnifying glass to magnify the sun's rays onto the metal cylinder that will heat the sand inside to a high enough temperature that it will release the heat throughout the night into a small room and raise the temperature for free. The sun is a permanent supply of free energy and heat. Just have to think of ways to store it. So again. You are wrong.

For the people that never think about these video's and assume that these are great: Lighting four tealights in a room without the use of this fancy "heater" would result in more heat as there would be no chimney wasting heat to the outside !

[@lmtn]

You make a valid point about the efficiency of simpler heating methods, like lighting tealights directly in a room without a chimney. It's true that the absence of a chimney could result in more heat being retained indoors. The trade-off between simplicity and the additional features of a more complex system is an interesting consideration.

[@oldowl4290]

Thermal mass and heat retention / dispersion is the name of the game regardless of fuel source. In this case, the sand or crushed granite mix is for the thermal mass. As shown, the upper tank is a tank within a tank so that the fumes actually flow up through the inside box of the upper round tank and out the exhaust pipe. Therefore think of the upper tank like how a thermos is made with the inside tank that keeps coffee warm and then the outer tank around it. Secondly, the exhaust / flue pipe on the right side is actually used as just that.. a flue.. to draw in air as hot air wants to rise (just like how a woodstove works) which creates and air draw. Realistically though, it's not needed as the exhaust pipe out the wall is doing this (but perhaps only somewhat because it's mostly set horizontally). Regardless, this action means more air-flow is pulled in, thus maximizing the burn of the candles. If there were a door on the front as well an adjustable intake valve, the air-flow would then be controllable from the intake side. If just left open however, then that entire cutout is the intake. Because of that, I would make a door with thermal glass. PS - Don't ever try and grind metal edges with a cutoff wheel. It could shatter. Use a proper flap disc.

[@lmtn]

Thank you for the detailed explanation! I appreciate the insights on thermal mass and airflow. Have you tried any other materials or designs to improve heat retention? Also, do you have any tips for optimizing the burn with different fuel types?

[@oldowl4290]

@@lmtn I am only familiar with various wood types which give off different amounts of BTUs based on their type, density, moisture content, etc. But for example, some people use wax as a thermal mass. So for example, instead of the tank in this video being filled with sand or crushed granite, it would be filled with wax which retains a lot of heat and will slowly release it as it re-solidifies. As for other thermal mass material, there are many good articles about it and the different mixes people have used including different types of mud mixed with sand and fibers which get packed around the stove and exhaust piping, which generally is set horizontal for several feet before going vertical or may even have two horizontal runs. What is also interesting is how it all has to work together. The type of fuel, the burn chamber, air flow, the type of mass or container, and of course the size of a room to be heated and for how long. Lots of variables in the mix. And as important as it is to capture and retain as much heat energy from a fire, this also means the airspace you are wanting to heat up also has to be sufficiently insulated. I call this the “dual chamber effect”. Because you can have a well designed and efficient heat source but if your second chamber, meaning your room or house, is not also thermally efficient and well insulated, then you are not getting the best benefits of your heat source. What I’ve found that greatly helps retain heat in a house is using aluminum foil-backed polyisocyanurate foam panels in your ceiling set above the drywall. Having a foil radiant barrier greatly helps both in winter for heat reflection on the bottom, and in summer where it reflects attic heat. It works incredibly well. Even just 1” or 1.5” panels will do A LOT. For heating we currently have an old mid 80’s Lopi woodstove, with solid brass doors and glass so you can see the fire. I’ve also made a few modifications to it be more efficient and hold on to heat longer. It’s not as great as a thermal mass stove, but those take a lot of time and effort to build, as well the space to build it. There are some great videos of those here on KZbin.

The idea itself is solid, but there are more than a few things that would improve it. First would be making the vent off the side run the length across the bottom fire extinguisher above the flames and out of the front with a computer fan moving air through it. Next, would be adding a glass door to the front and drilling an air intake from outside. Finally, you would have to run pipe throughout the top fire extinguisher instead of that box so there will be more time for the sand to absorb the heat before venting.

Thank you for your insightful comment! It's an interesting consideration. While burning candles or alcohol in tins does produce heat, the design of the contraption aims to focus and amplify that heat, potentially providing a more concentrated and efficient heating source.

like the idea one question why do you have to vent it outdoors

[@lmtn]

I appreciate your positive response to the idea! Venting outdoors is crucial for a few reasons. Firstly, it helps to expel any potentially harmful byproducts or fumes produced during the process, ensuring a safer indoor environment. Additionally, outdoor venting prevents the buildup of heat indoors, which could lead to discomfort or potential safety hazards. It's all about maintaining a balance between functionality and safety.

Looks nice....but quite dangerous with wax candles. Wax starts boiling above 200*C and can easily catch fire once the temperature inside the oven reaches that point. Once I've build similar oven like this and almost burned the house.

Thank you for sharing your experience! It's important to be cautious with heat sources. Have you found any safer alternatives for creating heat or cooking in your setup?

güzel dekoratif bir soba olmuş. ama gerçekten işe yarayıp yaramadığını gösterebilirdiniz de.. ve ben gerçekten merak ediyorum ortamı ısıtıp ısıtmadığını. eğer işe yarıyorsa evimin küçük çalışma odasında kullanılmış kızartma yağlarını kullanarak enerji tasarrufu geri dönüşüm kulalanabilirim. değerleri verirseniz mesala odayı kaç saatte hangi ısıya çıkardığını ve odanın büyüklüğünü yazarsanız sevinirim.

На какой объем комнаты такая печка расчитана? Идея классная

[@lmtn]

"Благодарю вас за положительный отзыв! Отличный вопрос относительно объема комнаты. Обычно, такие самодельные обогреватели могут быть эффективными в небольших или средних помещениях, например, в комнатах размером до 20-25 квадратных метров. Однако, многое зависит от множества факторов, таких как утепление комнаты, климатические условия и т. д. Если у вас есть конкретные параметры вашей комнаты или если вы хотели бы видеть адаптации проекта для более крупных или меньших помещений, дайте знать. Ваш вопрос важен, и я готов поделиться дополнительными рекомендациями в зависимости от ваших потребностей. Спасибо за внимание к моим видео, и я рад, что вам нравится идея!"

What was the temp in the room prior to starting it and then as it went on hourly till the full ran out?

[@lmtn]

"Great question! Unfortunately, I don't have the specific temperature details in the room prior to starting the heater and hourly thereafter. However, tracking temperature changes is an excellent idea for future videos. I'll make sure to include more comprehensive data in upcoming projects to provide a clearer picture of the heater's effectiveness over time. Thanks for the suggestion, and if there are other specific aspects you'd like to see in future videos, feel free to share your thoughts! 🌡️🔥"

I think I have seen better candle heaters done with a couple of terra cotta plant pots and no need for welding and sand. Either way thecandle heats the container first and then heat radiates out into the room from it. Also those 4 mini candles only last about 15 minutes burning time before needing to be replaced. A terra cotta pot heater uses candles that have longer burning times, and you can do crisco candles that give several hours burning time. Which to me seems much more efficient in emergency if the gas is out for one reason or another.

[@lmtn]

You're right! Terra cotta pot heaters are a popular and practical choice for extending heating time during power outages. They effectively radiate heat for longer periods, especially when using Crisco candles or larger candles. The mini candles you mentioned are less efficient due to their short burn time.

[@VHOPSFORMWORKS]

Nice! I really like it.

[@lmtn]

Thank you so much! I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it. Your positive feedback means a lot to me. If you have any suggestions for future content or specific things you'd like to see, feel free to let me know. I appreciate your support! 😊"

You have to calculate $/kw of the fuel. Gas,oil, wood/pellets, diesel is always the cheapest and below 0.15$ per kw. Candles, Alkohol, etc is always way more expensive. Teelight candles are at 0.30 - 0.8 $ per kw for example.

[@lmtn]

You're right! Conventional fuels like gas and oil are much cheaper per kW, while alternatives like candles are significantly more expensive.

[@TheocraM1991]

u can use candle oil, make a door to close the stove for the smokes and an air intake pipe, from the bottom...than I beleave is much cheaper.... but it works

[@lmtn]

Thank you for the suggestion! Using candle oil and creating a door to close the stove for the smoke, along with an air intake pipe from the bottom, sounds like a cost-effective solution. I appreciate your input and believe it could indeed be effective.

İlginiz için teşekkür ederim, ısıyı depolamak için içine inşaat kumu döktüm efendim, kömür değil, herhangi bir sorunuz veya benimle herhangi bir ilginiz var mı, teşekkürler

[@MuskratOutdoors]

Love the music. The first one anyway. OK, I don't understand the smokestack with the muffler looking thing on it?

[@lmtn]

"I'm glad you enjoyed the music, and I appreciate your positive feedback! Regarding the smokestack with the muffler-looking thing, it's actually an exhaust system designed to redirect any potential smoke or fumes away from the immediate surroundings. This is crucial for safety and ensuring that the indoor environment remains free of unwanted emissions. If you have any further questions or if there's a specific aspect you'd like me to elaborate on, feel free to let me know. Thanks for watching and engaging with the content!"
