what I want for the bug out bag is a small stove that can for the first few days of bugging out provide us with easy, smokeless heat. when we're further away from the suburbs I'll be happier risking a fire. that said BP my hobo stove is basically a tin can with refined holes in it. I could easily stick that full of bits at the bottom of the bag to use later on rather than a campfire.

yes, thats what my hobo stove is, PF, wife bought back a large tin she bought in a charity shop for 50p, i cut a square out of the middle, and thats a hobo stove, use it upside down so the bottom is now the top and is the hotplate.
