Inefficient heat transfer from alcohol stoves wastes fuel and extends cooking times in outdoor/emergency situations

Outdoor enthusiasts, campers, and preppers struggle to maximize heat output from alcohol stoves, which are popular due to their simplicity and safety but inherently inefficient at transferring heat to cookware. Current solutions lack standardized, affordable methods to capture and direct heat effectively, forcing users to experiment with makeshift reflectors and pot stands that are unreliable and often ineffective.
