Just get a MR Buddy Heather. Don't rely on this gimmick to save your life

this is a lot of bla , bla ! just show how to wire the heater for a 220 volt wire and up to start the fire ! if you only like to talk control box and bla , bla then go in the front of a mirror and start talking ! thank you to use my time !

@phil. I was going to watch the video while scrolling through the comments. Based on those comments your little demonstration is flawed because you do not measure heat with versus without the pots. That terra Cotta pot does nothing to increase the heat in the room. It might help diffuse it in the same manner that a globe or lampshade diffuses light. People seem to not grasp the basic laws of physics . I quit watching after 20 seconds and gave the video a 👎 The title was just clickbait.

You can also skip the pots and just put your cast iron frying pan over the candles ☺️

The same candles will put out the same exact amount of heat BTUs, British Thermal Units, for the same exact amount of time if used without anything around them. Adding material, clay in this example, doesn't increase the candle heat output a millionth. The temperature reached is relative to the outside temperature and the room outside wall and ceiling insulation rating. Even so, the test shows a valuable temperature increase if a house furnace stops working. There are dangers caused from heating any and all enclosures using do-it-yourself stove types. 1 is the oxygen in the room or enclosure is being quickly used and not replaced quickly enough, and many people have died from asphyxia - fatal lack of oxygen. Another danger is, people get very sleepy while asphyxiation grows, removing the ability to quickly get themselves outside and into air. Another danger is people lose their ability to make rational decisions as the asphyxiation increases. Bottom line is, keep yourself from getting into such situations, and provide enough cross-flow fresh air ventilation if you find you must resort to such a risky remedy. Remember, everything alive must have air ventilation.

Do you message temperatures in celcius in Canada?

At 7:13 is that a Canadian trooper running around with a Bundestag flag? If so, awesome, if not, still awesome. I'm 6 years overdue but awesome job.

I think mine is three phase can it still be wired at 220v

i added the control panel inside but wonder if its a good idea or should i put it outside

Do you have the sauna insulated at all?

Excellent....*

Thanks for documenting your process. Much appreciate the effort brother!

So, what is the temperature outside? What is the R rating of the walls of the room? How many of the walls are external ones? There are a bunch of things that would affect evaluating the efficiency of heating space this way

In Eastern Europe there are still many flats & homes with much larger versions of this concept, only they're made with tile. It's a nice, gentle heat which does keep rooms comfortable.

The carberator on our stove has a copper capillary tube that enters device beside the on/off tab What is this for??

How do you handle ventilation?

You know a clay pot has no effect on the amount of heat a candle emits, right? I’m hoping America isn’t THAT dumb.

Bro tomorrow I need to do the second one, I did the first one 6 times but the second cliff is so scaryyyy

👍

Wow. Amazing project.

That is 1 degree F every hour. If you stayed in the room for an hour and closed the door, the heat from you breathing would get it warmer than that. This experiment should never be done again lol

Thank you

this is a very badly-designed "test" for all the reasons people have already pointed out

J’étais là

a little physics lesson. Don't worry it won't hurt. You get about 270 btu/hr of heat energy from each of the 6 candles, thats 1620 btu/hr total or 475 watts of heat energy. That's the only source of heat energy in the apparatus. It's not a lot of heat energy. Consider: a small electric space heater makes 1500 watts of heat energy. So does a hair dryer. spoiler: use a finned copper plate instead of the terra cotta pot, and use a non-electric fan to force air through those fins. You'll get MUCH better radiant and convective heat transfer; making the best use of your candles heat energy. If you're not interested in the details, skip to the bottom and look at the heat loss calculator section. The terra cotta pots are a merely a landing spot for soot from the candles. They're not hot enough to contribute much to the spread of "radiant heat"; since radiant heat spread is proportional to the 4th power of the temperature in Kelvin. The terra cotta got up to 71C, or 344.15K, its 4th power is ~14,027,849,426 or 14 billion things (the units are not important to this discussion). If you replace the terra cotta with an ⅛ inch (3mm) copper plate positioned closer to the flames, the copper would reach a much higher temperature ... goal is 250C --- hot enough to sear a steak (or a finger). This is achievable since the flames of the candle may exceed 1000C. Aside: aluminum is a more economical choice than copper, but copper has a much higher thermal conductivity than aluminum [ copper = 400 and aluminum = 240] and will transfer 67% more radiant heat than aluminum. back to the temperature: 250C is 523.15K, its 4th power is 74,903,984,174 ... or 75 billion things. Thus the copper plate will be (75-14)/14 = 4.4 times (440%) more effective at spreading radiant heat than the terra cotta. But wait, there's more. Convective heat transfer is fluid flow across a heated object, in this case the fluid is "air". Convective heat transfer is proportional to the differences in temperature (object - ambient). With the terra cotta the difference is (71C - 20C) = 51C, with the copper plate the difference in temperatures is (250C - 20C) = 230C. So the copper plate is (230 - 51)/51 = 3.5 times (350%) more effective at convective heat transfer than the terra cotta. And more. Convective heat transfer is also proportional to the surface area of the heated object exposed to the fluid (air) ... that's why computer CPU coolers have oodles of fins (or pins). So rather than a flat copper plate use a copper plate with lots of fins (or pins). Aside: the design of optimal fins or pins layout is a hot topic in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). If you want to go down that rabbit hole google "CFD pins or fins" And still more. Forced convective heat transfer in air is up to 10 times (1000%) more effective than natural (un-forced) convection. So add a fan blowing air through those fins/pins on the copper plate (again like a computer CPU cooler) In particular add a non-electric stove-fan, they use the thermo-electric effect (they convert differences in temperature into electricity) to power the fan. One such fan (a 4 blade unit by Voda) starts spinning at 55C and is most efficient at 250C, but don't operate above 350C, it will damage the fan. Botton line ... use a copper plate with fins/pins instead of the terra cotta pot, and use a non-electric fan to force air through those fins/pins. You'll get MUCH more effective radiant and convective heat transfer. heat-loss calculation: There are lots of heat-loss calculators online. They ask about the size of a room, the insulation, the outside temperature and the desired inside temperature (maybe square footage of windows) ... and calculate the amount of heat energy required to achieve that inside temperature in btu/hour or maybe watts From this you can calculate how many candles you need, remember a candle makes about 270 btu/hour, or 80 watts. For example: a 16x12x8 room (LxWxH in feet), with "mediocre" insulation, 0F outside and 45F desired inside; needs 3550 btu/hour. That's 3550/270 = 13.1 candles. Note paraffin wax makes 19,900 btu per pound when burned. So you will be going through 24*3550 = 85,200 btu's a day OR 85,200 / 19,900 = 4¼ pounds of paraffin candles a day. If you buy paraffin in bulk (50 pounds) it costs $2 / pound. So $9 a day for candles. If you buy premade candles at retail, you will pay a LOT more. It you had a propane heater, you would need (58,200 btu/day) / (91,452 btu/gallon) = 0.636 gallons / day, which costs $3.69 a gallon (delivered), for a cost of (0.636 * $3.69) = $2.34 / day. Whether you use candles or propane or a wood stove ... make sure you install CARBON_MONOXIDE detectors. Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless, it doesn't make you cough; it just quietly kills people.

Do you have a build plan for purchase?

We don't use a heater. Hi from South Africa. Yup, our Municipality sucks. So, no heater or the power goes out. From experience a lot of candles (like 30 pilar candles) spaced throughout the living room does make a difference. Looks nice and a little bit warmer, even if it's just 18°C instead of 10°C. If you can afford to build a wood stove, that really heats up a whole house and feels like hot Summer heatwave if you're not careful.

turn the lights out, they would affect the test, my small shed heats up with a lamp

LOLOLOLOLOLOL..............Get real. Terra Cotta pots cannot produce more heat than the candles can do by themselves. It's the first law of thermodynamics. Basic high school physics. You would get the same seat if you used just the candles by themselves.

What’s the purpose of pressure plate made of thick metal? Mine is haas +sohn model viking. Secondly i have fitted 9feet long flue chimney. The stove flame goes off if I shut the glass window completely. I have to keep it opened slightly. What should I do?

I wish you would have explained how to turn on sauna at panel for 180°F.

very helpful video intelligently presented for the non expert to understand

Gotta warm up that flue before starting your fire

Perfect now i have e nice blou flame 🎉🎉

Super helpful! I watched both vids Animated first then this one. I have a small Coleman stove with its original oil carb attached and a twice larger stove body without. The Coleman carb label shows a BTU rating maybe suited to its small body size (I am guessing) Do you know if carbs were designed to flow rate according to Small, Medium and Large stove bodies? Ive been searching Online since 2022 and cannot get much tech specs. Appreciate your videos very much!

OK can someone please tell me why would anyone use tea-lights? They burn really fast. Why not use bigger candles??

Would be interested to see CO (carbon monoxide) measured over the same timeframe.

I was there in the mid-90s, twice as a Danish soldier, great experience, it was like in the video a huge party - going back to Nijmegen this summer with my wife, and I'm really looking forward to experiencing the city again.

Beau footage! Cool edit. C’est nice le son quand on voit la petite chute

Cool.

isopropyl with its yellow flame is actually sooty compared to my tests with ethanol. I used 95% isopropyl then 95% ethanol, Nice blue flame from the food grade ethanol, just too expensive for heat; I use that for making tinctures. Isopropyl has other uses that are also better than for heating. Interesting video though.

I tried 26 tea lights in my 5x9 caravan last year, fun experiment, that's all it was.

A more cost efficiant method is to use standard tabel candles. They burn twice as long and at 3 times the intensity so you only need to use 1. A batch of 50 costs the same as a pack of 100 tea lights so you end up with 4 times more heat per cost.

Thanks for the video! I'm trying to figure out if one of these could be adjusted or modified to run on vegetable oil?

Howdy I love the heater I have now But want to build a system for another building. Can you share any suppliers thanks

Bruh !!!! Ur a legend. Lol ..cheers dude ❤️❤️💪

HI Phil, thanks for making these videos. I have the exact regulator on my Franco Belges Le Continental stove. I am having an issue where the flame almost goes out (just a little yellow flame at the oil inlet), however tapping on the side of the regulator with a screwdriver causes it to burn great again. This leads me to believe that there is some sort of gunk in the regulator. My question is - what do you recommend doing to clean the inside of the regulator itself? I've seen all of your videos on this topic, and I will definitely pull the filter and clean it, but I haven't seen anything about cleaning the inside of the regulator (around the floats, etc). Just wipe in there with a rag or is there further disassembly that can/should be done to clean in there? Also, I don't have a shut off valve at my stove, just at my tank about 10 meters away. I am thinking that if turn the knob to 0 and lift the safety lever up, I should be able to pull the filter and drain the remaining oil from the regulator without draining the entire length of the line from the stove to the tank. Then I can clean the filter and wipe out the inside. Is there anything else you recommend? I am hoping to avoid removing the regulator from the stove, as I would need to drain the entire length of the line in that process. Thank you in advance for your help!

I need a filter. I can not find parts anywhere for this thing....
