Yes! It's the ultimate cold weather stove.

The original concept came from Gunnar Finn who produced his KAP Arctic stove which is considered by many to be the ultimate harsh weather/extreme cold stove.


The original had an Optimus 111C type burner (although I believe the 111T type burner would work as well). I believe the Swedish military used the stove for winter operations in the far north. A bit of background on the KAP Arctic.

The KAP Arctic is no longer produced, but it can be emulated by installing a kerosene or gasoline burner in a Trangia set up. The combination produces a very efficient, very windproof stove.
