Great fuel and simple to use
Plastic bottle with fuel gel, can be used in many different cooking set ups. Simple to use, squeeze into your chosen cooker and light using either matches or fire rod. Burns clean with none of the black smoke you get with meths. Safe to carry around without the need for a fuel bottle. I use mine with the BCB crusader cooking kit. Good enough for the army good enough for me.

Excellent Gel fuel, made by BCB

Outstanding
The gel is great. My problem was with the bottle
Bottle should have an "insert" inside the neck to allow for thin "stream" of gel, without it a huge ball the size of the neck comes out.
I found another bottle and inserted this "insert" or narrower, and that solved the problem
Happy camper
Great product good clean burn happy camper.
good idea
very cool - if you have a meths burning stove you still need pot stand/wind guard etc.. then you need to add the fuel. This fuel is like having the same setup without needing the actual stove. Only thing is you seem to need more than you think - i had to put 5 dollops into the fuel crucible of the mk1 bcb crusader set to get a rolling boil - i probably should have just filled the whole crucible to the top. Also it leaves a lot of gunk in the bottom - other than that it works well, its easy to light and doesn't stink everything up like hexamine.
Update####
Used it a lot more and yes. If you have a pot stand with a fuel crucible this will do the job and no need for an actual stove. Also it lights from a spark very easily (unlike fuel tablets) the only issue is its hard to gauge how much to use and you might need to refuel a few times to get to a boil. If you put in lots in one go it just burns really hot and fast. So seems like using multiple dollops as needed is the way to go

Cracking product
Bought this product to help start fires at leeds festival. Only a tiny bit was needed to get the fire going and it lit up really easily. Just be careful as sometimes you can't see the flames this produces. I will be buying again once I've used this bottle up.
