The "Sardine" stove from Navigator Stove Works

I looked at these for mine Franklin project after the small wood stove I had already got broke there was a long waiting list and they are expensive nice little stoves though

The beauty of that $4,000 Kimberley stove is that it requires NO ventilation from inside the RV as it uses OUTSIDE air for combustion.

The stove draws NO air from inside the RV to facilitate combustion. The air intake into the stove comes through a 2-inch hole drilled through the floor of the RV to the outside air through which a tube is snaked through that hole to several inches below the floor up into the bottom of the stove itself. All installed with proper sealants, etc.

The stove has it's OUTSIDE air intake at the bottom of the stove via a tube placed into the floor hole to the outside. Thus, there is no need to be concerned about CO2 poisoning, etc. A completely closed system. Gotta love it!

If the intake hole is somehow blocked by debris,etc., combustion ceases and the fire goes out. like virtually immediately.
(Pssst...Keep a CO2 detector onboard anyway) ;)

A couple of youtube videos show how it's installed and used in an RV and in a sailboat.

Finally reached the sheepcamps for their stove info, and another question theirs is heavy and $2000 shipping would be big bucks.

The Kimberly weighs 50 lbs., not an issue for a truck camper. THe clearances also make it do able even on a TC or RV/Trailer.

They do make others and I've looked at even the tiny home/boat type Newport gas stoves. Reason I've used my Furnace in Lance and it sucked the power down, the blowers are a hog and a half.

Meanwhile the Newports sipped at the the power they use a 12V computer sized fan to move the air about. And can be installed pretty much in anything - minimal clearance, not requiring external air.

Still looking for the ideal live in 4x4 on my next buy/build.
Yes, I know $4000 is pricey for a cook/heat stove but, you need relatively zero clearance in a camper/RV trailer. I know I've seen others but, drawing a blank on names.

There are many stoves for tents, anyone thats every camped old school can attest to that. Military or Mega sports type stores that sell canvas tent. Or stovess for through hikers - in $200 range but, in an rv - uh uh.

Wood stoves in campers was talked about w photos some where. Doesn't it deserve its own thread?

Maybe, but not in the Truck Camper forum. It seems to be more of a home built kind of solution since the campers have a lot of materials that could be damaged by fire/heat.

That radiator idea is awesome!

I knew someone who had a a tiny antique stove, built for coal but she burned wood in it, in a houseboat.
