Wood Burning Stove
wood burning stove- great dry heat for dehumidification in wet climates, and vans 😉
Does not draw on precious resources when off-grid
Nothing beats a rolling oak fire 🙂
Alcohol Stove & Oven
- Requiring minimal venting – a cracked widow would suffice.
- Make sure your fuel canister has fuel and your flame is Blue, if its orange refill!
- Dometic propane stoves also work… But they do require more mindful use of ventilation, and propane tank storage.
- Cleanest burning fuel on the market
- Safe for small spaces
Off-Grid Systems for our Units
We offer the most innovative, high-end solar systems available to the public.
Our off-grid systems are safely built, and easy to learn.
Low Voltage Fridge & Lighting
- Low voltage lighting and appliances-our refrigerators can run 24/7 without requiring an inverter.
- Maximum efficiency is paramount when off grid!
- Lighting is LED and draws practically nothing!
