Just to clarify my orignal suggestion... I have several pressurized "gasoline" stoves (back to my old 1971 Svea, still working.. sorta) and have used it for backpacking for many years, and that's what I prefer for that useage myself.<br><br>The Alpaca I mentioned is different than other wick-type kerosene stoves, being built along the lines of a kerosene space heater, it's designed to burn especially clean for use indoors. Personally, I will not used pressurized stoves or lanterns indoors, especially gasoline. Some here who are senior to me may remember that Aladdin made their fortune (in wick/mantle kerosene lamps) off the statistics of farmhouses burned down by their pressurized-gasoline lantern comptetitors. <br><br>The Alpaca was suggested just to keep from having to cook outdoors- with proper precuations, of course.
