How many times do YOU get up during the night to stoke the fire or add wood?
Last night I had a good stable fire, (partially closed damper)going at 7:30 P.M. when I "crashed." Then I woke at midnight (not of my own doing) and found embers, so added more (hot start); then woke again at 3:30 A.M., and of course, "embers" again........so I added more (hot start).
By the way, as a passing note, I found that the Super Cedar fire starters (I used one when I first lit the fire at supper time, and then another one at midnight), broke into quarters EASILY between my hands. No fancy doodad (homemade or otherwise) required to break it.
