Survival Kettle is a trade name for portable outdoor water boilers using twigs and other small combustibles. These devices consist of a water jacket surrounding the fire chamber, which creates a chimney draft, ensuring efficient and quick cooking even in windy or rainy weather.
Survival Kettle is a registered trademark of Art Design Agencja Reklamowa Dariusz Wójcik[1], which was the first and only one in Poland to produce this type of device.[2]
Earlier examples of water-jacketed water heaters include the heavier samovar tea urns of Eastern, Central and Southeastern Europe as well as the Middle East so-called samovars.
History[edit]
Early examples (estimated to be around 3,600 years old) of devices to heat the water surrounding a fire include samovar tea urns from eastern, central, and southeastern Europe, as well as the Middle East. In Europe, the first products were made by the Irish company Kelly Kettle at the beginning of the 20th century.
In 1929 in New Zealand, the Thermette design was registered by John Ashley Hart. It was standard equipment in the New Zealand Army serving in North Africa during World War II when it was known as the "Benghasi Cauldron". In 1939, the New Zealand Army asked Hart to relinquish his patent so that they could make their own termets; he agreed and the device was issued as standard equipment to every small military unit.
A modified version of the idea was created by the Eydon Kettle Company in the early 1970s and marketed as the "Storm Kettle".
The Polish version was created in 2014, using more handy forms of use, unlike its predecessors. Further variants included not only kettles, but also folding hearths, the so-called hobo ovens and a number of components that improve the functioning of the above devices.
