⚠️WATCH THIS BEFORE you buy a MULTI-FUEL Stove - Fire-Maple LAVA

⚠️In this video, I tested the Fire-Maple LAVA multi-fuel stove for the first time, and it got a bit dangerous. Watch as I navigate some unexpected stove defects and share important safety precautions you need to take when using this stove. It wasn't all plain sailing, but I eventually got it running. Stay tuned as I also compare it against the popular MSR Pocket Rocket.

I reviewed this too. Just wouldn't work after swapping back to gas. Other youtubers have identified an incorrect gasket rubber that is not petrol compatible. After watching this, has confirmed my decision to bin it.

[@ervinslens]

You put so much effort into your work man, absolutely and honestly flawlessly cinematography! Keep going 👏👏👏

[@soletrail]

You flatter me every video pal. Thank you.

[@IrelandOutdoors]

Bonkers mate, no way I would be using that, I need to protect what hair I have left on my head!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@soletrail]

Cheers man. Yeah it's a tough one cause I love the concept of it. But yeah, more work needed. Like Fire Maple make some great stuff and they have made the market a lot easier for us but this one needs some work. My eyebrows didn't thank this review 😂

[@man.bike.camp.4409]

That is scary. Seems like more hassle than it needs to be.

[@BrokenBackMountains]

The main thing about a multifuel is winter use. I have an edelrid hexon. Usual system to prime for petrol but less flame than that. It also doesn't need a change of jet. Thing is when playing with liquid fuel you have to be careful😂 That stove shouldn't be doing that on gas. Is it the wrong jet on it or is it because you inverted the canister before preheating? Also, the process should be to pressurise, soak the pad and light to preheat and then when the flame is almost out turn the valve to give gas. However, where is the preheater tube on that stove. There isn't one!!! How is it supposed to preheat and vapourise the fuel? Petrol stoves used to be more common. As well as the edelrid, I also have a Svea 123r ( the Swedish hand grenade), a beautiful brass job. I got that in 1985. I prime it with priming paste. I also have an Optimus rider which is basically a Coleman copy and is a bit pants. That muffler looks a bit like a berniedawg copy. I have a berniedawg on the edelrid. I like the roar of a petrol stove though so don't muffle the svea. I run my stoves on Aspen 4T. It is pure 4 stroke petrol you can get in places like Quinn's. Don't use petrol from the petrol station. Too many additives. In a pinch, Zippo lighter fuel is good but expensive.

[@alanrobertson5497]

Scary stuff.

[@soletrail]

Absolutely man. Scary stuff is right.

[@abedmellal2084]

Thanks for the in-depth review of the "unique" stove, very dangerous and heavy, I would only use it in an extreme emergency situation I'm the winter outside in two feet on snow, it looks too complicated for the average person, there are other much simpler stoves out there, maybe fire-maple need to re-engineer it for the safety aspect. If I was car camping I might take it for emergency use only but it'll never be my go to stove, excellent review tho, tnx👍

[@soletrail]

Cheers pal. Yep it's a weird one for me. I love the concept but it needs work. There is room for it in the market but it needs work.

[@ScottRosa2008]

No I wouldn’t bother because for that weight you could carry a lightweight gas stove (mine is 43g) plus an alcohol stove and it would still weigh less, you would likely be able to get alcohol or gas canisters anywhere in the world for the most part.

[@BrokenBackMountains]

There is a place for petrol stoves if you are going out in proper winter conditions. When it is really cold or at altitude your propane/butane mix stove won't work well and the alcohol stove will need preheated.

[@gerkenneally5053]

Good reviewLooks scary .Thank you .Stay safe .

[@soletrail]

Thank you Sir.

[@BrokenBackMountains]

Check out proper multifuel stoves from Optimus, Primus, MSR or Edelrid. Safer and better quality.

[@soletrail]

Will do.. thanks for that. Love the concept

[@jestnutz]

there is alot of potential i love that there are many fuel options. im sure there will be a company out there in the future that can improve on its reliability.

[@soletrail]

Agree with you.. it has so much potential and I love the concept of it but it needs work. But I like what Fire Maple make cause they have made the market cheaper for all.

[@2312dean]

I dont own one but there is already. MSR make a multifuel stove.. The only need for them is if your really going into well below freezing zones though where gas just wont cut it

[@BillHoward-lb4zb]

Thanks,Very helpfull and informative as ever

[@soletrail]

Appreciate it Bill

[@2312dean]

wow thats some cheap knock off of a real one (see MSR, Primus and others) but to be honest unless your going way below zero there is no need. These things are for extreme cold or extreme altitude where your gas just wont work

[@BrokenBackMountains]

Ditch that. No preheater so the fuel doesn't vapourise. It is dangerous. There should be a preheater tube going over the burner. Not fit for purpose.

[@gamefahmi3749]

Can its moded fo fit in trangia ?

[@soletrail]

Hummm. You got me thinking now.

[@alanhamilton890]

Feck that piece of shite....too dangerous. Did you do a risk assessment before you used it? I won't be getting that yoke anyway lad!!!
