I really want a Sun Oven.... They seem really well built and are Made in the USA! Little pricy but are supposed to be really good.

I make my own. I was pretty simple. Gets to about 320 oF. I cook my chicken and beans for the week every weekend (except when rain).
I got picks somewhere. |

I've decided I really like the sos sport oven and I might get the sunflair mini as well for portability

I have the sun oven.
It boils water sitting in the snow in about 20 minutes, if I remember correctly. Only had it set up once. My wife bought it. It can be easily made for much less money I think. |

I ended up getting the sun oven. I knew the sos would be good in the summer but couldn't find enough info about people using it in the winter and Iowa can get very cold!

I just ordered the sunflair mini. Will be testing it out at home before I head to the mountains and report my results.

Quoted:
since fuel to cook for multiple hours a day would be insane to stockpile. Thermos cooking pretty much eliminates that problem. Heat the food up to boiling, pour it in a Thermos bottle, and let it finish cooking over the next 2-8 hours. Basically, it's like using a crock pot that doesn't require any electricity. They even make Thermal Cookers specifically for that purpose. |

They even make Thermal Cookers specifically for that purpose. And a hay cooker. I made one to complement my solar cooker. Basically a big box (I got a big assed container at Home Depot) that you can insulate to put your pot in after it gets up to temp. I just used shredded paper as insulation. I then made a smaller box out of insulated board to go in the middle of the shredded paper, covered my pot with aluminum foil, and used spray foam to make a custom pocket for the pot to go in the middle of the smaller box. Now, I can heat a pot of beans to boiling, take off heat, place it in the box, and it cooks over the next several hours (sometimes I leave it over night in there). Great a saving energy (read that as money) and it is simple, cheap to build and about as low tech as you can get. |

Silver mylar car sunshade. Take 2 bottom corners pull toward middle, duck tape together to make a U shape collector.
Small pot, beans, rice, water, wrap in clear oven bag, place on stand in center. Will get VERY hot. I've also made one using a pattern on cardboard, and glued foil on it, works about the same, but took 4x as long to put together. |
