      TA,

      Have you seen one before, it seems awlful small hole in the copper. Is there a place I can find information on it.

      Yes. Don't underestimate the device. It self heats and thereby pressurizes the alcohol to form a jetting flame. (Like a rocket stove). Alcohol burns with a dim flame, so use precaution until you are accustomed to starting it and using it.

      Plenty of videos and pages on Google of use.
