2017-18 Blaze King Performance Thread PART 3 (Everything BK)

Geez dude, chill out...

 

All righty then !!
Is you're # still the same as it was 3 years or so ago ??

 

...And not having to buy one every three years because it's fallen apart, or having it nickle and dime you to death after four.

 

Man! You guys discussing your preferred mode of transportation may have just let the biggest news of the offseason fly under the radar! Bholler is in discussions with showrguy and may procure a BK for the upcoming heating season!

 

I'm actually very curious about this, I enjoy most of your posts because your very knowledgeable and some what blunt or straight to the point, I hope you get to run one of these stoves for a full heating season.

 

I'm envisioning an exorcism

 

Hum, VC Evil master

 

Are you going to install it in your basement to replace the regency? If so, look shouldn’t matter... but I agree with you, I’d never put a princess or king in my sitting room.

 

Ssssh, you are gonna jinx it. I have already been preparing a list of his old posts that I was going to make him read after a season with the BK. ;p

 

Based on your previous posts I believe you will find the stove capable of more heat output than you suspect. That's providing the stove comes with the fans kit which, in my opinion, is a must for a serious heater.

I also think you will be surprised by the burn times. Even if you believe what you've heard, there's still nothing like seeing 24 hours of usable heat with wood left over for yourself.

Perhaps the alien technology will not impress you but....we'll see.

 

Even when a BK is pushed hard it out performs other stoves I’ve had. Running low is a must for me, since we start burning early in the fall and into spring as long as possible. When running it hard becomes a must I’m still impressed not only with heat output, but burn times as well. Not like my non-cats that barely had a spark left, if you were lucky. Not to mention you can’t leave it on high...

 

Interestingly enough I am looking at the possibility of moving and having to start over on my stove setups. I am strongly considering a BK. Not set in stone yet but I can't deny that the endless positive experiences of members here as well as the participation/help online offered by bkvp is weighing in heavily in my decision making process.

 

I dunno, my fan kit on my King never gets used, in fact, a year and a half ago I sent em to Marshy to use for the winter of 2016/17..
My stove is in a big room with 2 ceiling fans though..
The stove that's going to bholler does have the fan kit on it..
New combuster is on it's way also, just in case it needs one..

 

I use my fan all the time, however I do not burn 24/7. I use it when I first start the stove up to warm the room up for an hour or 2 then its off till the next day.

 

This pretty much proves my point. The BK's are capable heaters without the fans, I'm not saying they're not. But still, capable of putting out even more heat with them. How much more? I don't know. But it's quite a difference in my home and I couldn't comfortably heat my whole home without them at times.

 

I hope you don't think I come across as bent out of shape. If I do it's likely my poor writing skills which often cause my messages to be misconstrued and even misunderstood.

Anyway, if you have given any details of your new house I missed it. How big an area will you be heating? Basement install? Etc. you know the drill, lol.

 

Don't get tarzan bent out of shape or he'll barehand you across the creek!
