Fire Maple's Sunflower X Will Keep You Warm While You Cook - Yanko Design

"There's something magical about cooking outdoors when the temperature drops and the stars come out, but let's be honest, keeping warm while you're waiting for water to boil can be downright miserable. Fire Maple's Sunflower X solves this age-old camping problem with its clever dual-purpose design featuring petal-like adjustable windscreens that can be fine-tuned for keeping wind out and reflecting heat. This isn't just another camping stove. It's your cook station and personal heater rolled into one gorgeous, portable package."

"After cooking dinner, this particularly portable, wind-resistant stove can quickly tilt up to fire its radiant heat directly at you, providing critical warmth through fast-dropping nighttime temperatures. Think of those chilly fall evenings when you're settling in after a long hike, and suddenly the temperature plummets. Instead of huddling in your sleeping bag with cold hands, you can angle the Sunflower X toward yourself and soak in the infrared warmth while your camping companions tell stories or you simply enjoy the quiet."

"What makes this stove different from traditional camping stoves is its infrared heating technology. Both the original Sunflower and Sunflower X rely on radiant heat instead of open flame, with the X using a 3-dimensional metal-mesh burner to transform flame energy into far-infrared radiation. This means no more battling with flickering flames in windy conditions or worrying about your dinner taking forever to cook because the breeze keeps extinguishing your burner."

Sunflower X combines cooking and personal heating in a single portable unit with petal-like adjustable windscreens that block wind and reflect heat. The stove uses far-infrared radiant heating via a 3-dimensional metal-mesh burner, avoiding reliance on open flame and reducing flame extinguishing in windy conditions. Four windproof panels and a pressure-regulated valve support steady performance in windy or freezing environments. The unit weighs 2.2 lb (1 kg), folds to 6.8×5.1×3.8 in for compact packing, and assembles tool-free in about 10 seconds. The stove can tilt to direct infrared warmth at users after cooking.
