The Kelly Kettle Hobo Stove turns the fire base of your Base Camp or Scout kettle into a proper wood-burning camp stove. Once your water has boiled, lift the kettle off, sit the Hobo Stove on the fire base and you've got a stable cooking surface for any pot or pan, fuelled by whatever twigs, pine cones and dry grass you can find.
It packs away inside the fire base, so it takes up no extra room in your kit. Kelly Kettle is a trusted brand in the outdoor community, and this is one of the most useful add-ons in the range.
Key features
- Turns your Base Camp or Scout fire base into a wood-fired stove
- Use any size pot or pan on top
- Fire is contained safely inside the unit, with heat directed up to your pan
- Burns any natural solid fuel, so there's no gas to carry
- Nests inside the fire base for storage
Compatibility
Fits the fire base of the Base Camp and Scout kettles. It does not fit the smaller Trekker kettle. Best used with stainless steel fire bases, as aluminium bases can warp under the heat.
How to use it
- Sit the Hobo Stove on the fire base with its wide rim down.
- Face the fire base's air hole into the wind and the Hobo's large feeder hole away from it.
- Feed fuel through the feeder hole or the fire base hole as needed.
- Pop your pot or pan on top and cook.
Let it cool fully before packing, then flip it over and it drops inside the fire base. The fire base gets very hot, so set up on a non-combustible surface like sand, gravel or a flat stone, and leave no trace.
