    Description

    Hello,
    Up for auction is a made in Sweden, Optimus No. 00 stove that is complete and in good working order. The burner is made in Sweden and marked 'Optimus Primus'.
    I live off grid and have used this stove as one of my cook stoves (I do have a small collection) for three years.
    All parts normally replaced in service of this stove have been replaced. There is good airflow through the burner so it has years more of service left. Stove is in good working order as can be clearly seen in last two pictures.
    This is a 'one pint' stove and is (IMHO) one of the best one pint stoves made. The Optimus No. 00 was used for many years by Sweden's military and is sold occasionally as military surplus. The stove can be easily disassembled for travel or storage and is compact enough for even one person to use for backpacking or camping. The 'reserve cap' (included) is used when transporting with fuel in stove.
    All parts needed to maintain and keep this stove running are currently available. I will provide a list of sources I use for parts to winning bidder. Many stoves of this type are still working after one hundred years of use.
    These kerosene/paraffin burning stoves are often used onboard ships because of their better safety.
    There are a number of videos on YouTube that show how to light and operate this type of stove.
    See YouTube video "Optimus 00 Stove - How to Light" by BernieDawg Cinema for an EXCELLENT video on how to light this very stove.
    When this type of stove is properly primed it will burn with a nice clean blue flame when lit. Kerosene is also a very cost effective fuel to use.
