congrats Nick! this one looks much sturdier than Wilesco's earlier turbine version. I will look forward to a review, as I wonder how well it will run on Esbit fuel, as the Jensen version is underpowered even with their electric powered boiler. A propane burner replacement might help.
Anyhow, i now have something to add to my Christmas wish list.

Doug, I plan to only use gas. If you want one for Christmas, buy it now as I believe ministeam has the only ones left and don’t think they’ll be made again... they’re also $330 off regular price right now.

An engine which became a rarity well before first and only batch sold out, so have no doubt that it will turn out to be a good investment on top.

Congratulations and well done Nick !!!

Wow, Thanks Jan! Didn’t know there was only one batch made... I will not let that keep me from firing it though  ;)

I didn’t either, better get your order in!  ;)

Hoping to try mine out in the next day or so...
