Test Series by Derek Hansen

 

"The Vargo stove has really won me over as a very durable, long-cooking alternative to my other home-made alcohol stoves. I am very impressed with how long the stove cooks, which has made it possible to cook recipes beyond your typical boil-in-a-bag menu."

WIll the Decogon fit into and work in the hexagon wood stove. It would be nice to be able to use alcohol and wood simultaneously.

Answer:
  • Yes, the Decagon will fit inside the Hexagon Wood Stove though we don't recommend it. It won't burn as efficiently as our Converter Stove and has the potential to overheat. Thanks!

Question:

A number of years ago I bought a decagon stove which had a small central hole, I notice the current model has a significantly larger hole. I presume this change generates an improvement in performance. Should I consider modifying mine to improve the stove's performance in terms of boiling time?

Answer:
  • Yes, the Decagon has been updated since the original one, mainly to increase fuel capacity and priming times. We do not recommend modifying the Decagon or any of our stoves. Doing so will void the warranty.

Answer:
  • The two typical reasons the Decagon won't fully bloom when used are: 1. It's not filled up all the way with fuel. It must be full enough that fuel rises above the weld in the inner well. 2. The fuel is not getting hot enough to vaporize and pressurize the stove which could be cause by poor fuel, cold outside temperatures, cold fuel temperatures, wind, etc.. Before lighting, try lightly spraying the outside of the stove with fuel then light the fuel. The additional flames this creates will help to speed up the priming process. Or trying warming up your fuel bottle by putting inside your jacket or shirt before use.

Question:

What is the fuel capacity of the decagon? How does it compare to the triad for burn time and diameter where the pot sits?

(0)
By Linda Atwater
on 4 November, 2019
Answer:
  • Both the Vargo Decagon and Triad alcohol stoves have a fuel capacity of about 1.5 ounces (44 ml) and approximate burn time of 20 minutes (though you can eek out a few more minutes on the Triad). The Decagon's burner diameter is 2.25" (57 mm) while the Triad's is 3.4" (86 mm) when the pot supports are fully extended. Both can pour unused alcohol neatly back into a fuel bottle by using a leg or the base plate as a guide.
