Geoffrey,
It looks like the BioLite Home Stove is still not available to the public yet but the camp stove is available for reservation. That’s a clever idea using it in your chimney. Please let me know how it goes in heating your home.

I occupy a live-in office of 57m2 is super insulated, but needs approximately 2/3kw. of heat in those winter days when indoor temperature descends to 12/14 degrees C. I plan to use the stove in my traditional fireplace with a reduced flue size of 10cm. stainless tube to cook feijoada or cozido portuguese or similar long cook recipes, in a 5/8 litre pot……the residual heat that rises towards the flue outlet will heat the surrounding freestanding brickwork mass and flue pipe, and assist the indoor temperature towards 17C. Furthermore I can watch the fire in the normal cooking oversight process and thus enjoy the process more. Alfarroba and almond/citrus tree trimmings will supply the majority fuel in the same way way as in traditional vernacular outdoor kitchens which use the open heat source of burning twigs contained by bricks to heat cooking pots, only last much longer and use less fuel and produce zero soot particles……or almost!
I cant wait to use the stove, so please produce them ASAP!! If this is for the third world, it will be great for me and other low/high tec eco types bought up with post WW2 make do logic.
