The Turbo-Hobo is an alternative to propane and petrol burners.
It nearly instantly produces an enormous amount of heat, thanks to its electric fan. Even large groups can be provided with hot food, and melting water is not longer restricted to the amount of fuel you can carry. After starting the fire, this hobo will burn nearly every biomass you can get your hands on, even soaking wet bark, fir cones, acorns and so on.
The fan has 50% and 100% mode, and is powered by two AA Batteries. The Motor is quiet and very economical, so runtimes of +50hrs can be achieved on one set. If the fan is not used, it has to be taken of the stove, and the Turbo-Hobo will burn with natural draft.
The handles make it easy to lift and move the burning hobo, and the legs provide a safe stand as well as ground protection.
For transportation the Hobo can be collapsed to 14cm x 14cm diameter. All parts except the Motor and the batteries case are made from stainless steel. Two sacs for clean staorage are delivered with the Hobo.
Weight is ~800g without batteries and sacs, full weight is ~900g.
The Turbo Hobo 1600 is handmade in the Russian Federation, everything is spot welded and the edges might be a bit sharp. Function is prior to shiny finish.
