Very interesting experiments Russell!
How about adding heat to the burner by insulating it – exhaust wrap, double wall or something like that? More heat is probably not bad for combustion.

I would love to. I am so very busy and only build stoves when I stumble upon items or if it's given to me by folks who sympathise for my addiction, or if I'm being good.
In reply to previous questions, this stove is 2 1/8" diameter.
to those of interest, as I was using this stove with just paraffin I observed what was discussed in this thread and wanted to share the distinct differences between beeswas(previous pictures) and pure paraffin.
I see some blue/purple or maybe it is vapors escaping. Either way everytime I light this thing up I find myself laying down in a funny position watching blue for 10 minutes while I wait for food. Enjoy
