Primus No.735

My Primus is a late-model No.735, made when Optimus had taken over the company but used the Primus name for a while. It’s pretty much an Optimus 510.








Priming.




Fired up.






Catalogue entry for its Optimus 510 stablemate.




Size/height comparison with other furnaces, left-to-right: Primus No.735; Primus No.85; Perfektus/Meva.

 

Wow, very nice. A true beast that.

 

Hi John brilliant i Love those rocket stoves, i would like to get my hands on a plumbers London furnace with the Primus 702 burner

 

how much power it can produce (kW)?

 

@gideon
Each burner has the same output as a No.1 stove’s output in this table from @kerophile.



So, that’s 2.8 x 4kw: 11.2kw, a fraction more than a Primus No.3 stove at 10kw and less than the single-burner No.85 (pictured above) at 16kw.

 

Monstrosity with four mouths....
Thanks for sharing.

 

I meant, four-headed dragon, but the translator "did it his way"...

 

A matching set of original flame rings! Oooh jealous

Alec.

 

@presscall that's great! so will you use the stove for something? and what for if yes?

 

love that monsters, now i'm finishing the 3-headed benzine stove fabrication

 

Yes indeed, for over a decade now, here firing a wok, my pal Henry doing the cooking - Good wok burner stoves.
