Yes, the name is cool too!
Hey all, I'm expecting a shipment of Black Mamba bottles to arrive tomorrow, lots and lots of them. My savings will be extended to you. Cost for 1 stove is $10.00 + $3.00 shipping. This is a super good deal, don't miss out on it, send me a pm if you want one. The season is fast coming upon us.
Zelph, convince me why I should retire my beloved StarLyte and purchase a Mamba.
PS, I am easy to convince
Don't retire the StarLyte, alternate with the Mangold Mamba....it fits inside the Mamba.....both have the fuel absorbing feature
Take it along and let a neighbor use it. You know! the ones that use canister stoves and can't get them to work. Or the ones that chose to use wood and it's raining.
Is the Mamba the same as the bud stove, if not, what is the difference and performance. I saw where u had a few left for sale and would like to buy one at $13. Where do I send the money if it is basically the same as the bud stove.
thanks
I just bumped this thread up here as a reminder that the stoves I have on sale originated here as a DIY stove.
So the design came about in the year 2010.
I have been to Haiti a number of times to help and they don't use electricity. We have brought many solar lights. The stoves they use are fueled with the tons of cardboard. We have however developed solar ovens. I'm not sure if alcohol stoves would work there but, it's a good thought.

Thank you for your service there. Such a devastating natural disaster to have happened, so sad.
This type of wick stove will burn isopropl91 alcohol very well. It will leave some soot on the bottom of the pot but a lot less than cardboard. If iso91 is available there I will donate 2 dozen stoves to be shipped there or to your address for when you return.
Thanks again for your service.
That is what I like about the Fancee Feest and the 1-cup: the 1-cup doesn't slide around.
It doesn't "snap" in place, like this Venom stove and your Ridgeline Foster's can.
I can see why people woukd like it.
Someone had sent me an eamil and said he liked how the pot snapped onto the stove, told him I'd check on it and one thing led to another and this is what I came up with. Watch this video starting at 3:10
Hey Zelph---that was me that emailed ya about the snap on pot----is it too late to add to my order?
also---in the beer can style pots---do you cook in it (like noodles or something) or just use it for boiling water?
thanks....
Why thank you Zelph.....
please make sure your address is somewhere and ill send ya a thank you gift....
To me---when I watched the video for the first time--when I saw how the pot snapped onto stove---it made me think that this is the alcohol version of a jet boil.....
plus I dug it cause right now--the pot I'm using for my stove (pocket rocket) has a tendency to slip off......
im pumped to try it out and will give a report on how it works for me.....
It's going t work well for you.
Look at this thread, shows how to roast fish fillets....hot dogs using the Venom stove
