Almost died once in Micronesia when my hosts left a low lit kerosene hurricane lap running in my 8x8 thatched room. They thought I was scared of the dark. I learned the hard way that venting is important. Wow, what a headache in the morning due to lack of oxygen, but I was thankful I woke up.

The foil used to cover the holes cuts down the draft. The lantern you used is known as cold draft design which is what the 2 tubes on either side. The holes draw in air. Get yourself 2 jupiter lanterns. They hold over half gallon fuel and will easily heat that little tent....add essential oil to eliminate the smell.
The air holes you covered are for t intake air that travels down the side tubes to heat the fuel for a cleaner burning flame.

I am thinking it will actually warm pretty good, like 25-30 °C I visited a girl living in a tin cabin, not insulated, she had a woodstove, but she also lit a bunch of candles for light and heat, and in the dead of winter, I found it so uncomfortably hot that I had to strip down to my boxers just to stop from sweating! Also I think that could have been why she lit the candles lol, but it did make a noticeable difference!
It "spits black smoke" because you have the wick set too high. This will cause blackening of the glass. If correctly adjusted, the lantern should not emit any visible/black smoke.
My guess is 18.5 celcius. I used the same lantern in my tarp tent last night. I didn't use a pipe because I had an opening in the front and plenty of air circulation underneath and still noticed about an 8 degree difference.
I want to see you run that setup in snowy cold, dead of winter setting. I have my doubts that in windy or colder conditions that the pipe will radiate enough heat to be a possible setup. I may be wrong and thats why I would love to see you do this again in much colder conditions. Great experiment all around would also suggest a 3 wick candle with the same parameters to see what kind of heat is generated without having to carry liquid fuels.

some gas lanterns burn at 1g per hour. meaning it would be feasible to heat up a winter tarp (with doors) for a hammock setup with one of these. That's pretty cool if you ask me.
Interesting experiment, I guessed maybe a 3 or 4 degree difference. I remember using a Coleman lantern in my friend's ice shanty when we were ice fishing. I can't remember if it was a propane or white gas lantern. It was a good size shanty, it fit 3 adults. It got really toasty in there and we had to take our jackets off. I have a Little Buddy heater. Wish they could come up with a mini one that you could fit in a backpack and not take up a lot of room.

I'm late to this experiment, but I wonder if an open metal hood (upside down funnel) just above the lantern would allow enough draft up the stack. A large metal coffee or bean can adapted to the stack might do the trick. You could use a tin can on the very top to stop weather, rain, etc. from coming down the stack. Even a real metal funnel cut to fit could be a perfect field expedient solution for a draft hood. High temp tape used in HVAC might also help. Any temp above hypothermia works for me.😂

I've seen other videos of people trying to use alternative methods of heat lately and theres some pretty interesting concepts. One person was using a piece of copper pipe that's placed directly in their fire and runs into the tent. I'm not sure if it's working like a boiler system or if its just radiating heat from the pipe, but it seems to be another simple method that works.

Try the experiment with "Klean Heat." It was very hard to find, but I lucked out at Tractor Supply. Add a baffle that can help reflect the heat down. That liquid paraffin might coat your chimney creating another hazard.

That was a really great idea. Now the question is how much heat is actually put out by the glass lamp & how much by the pipe? Do it again & use a thermal scanner on a piece of aluminum put next to each piece. My guess is that the pipe radiates a minimal amount by comparison so I'd start looking around for the largest lantern I could find. The genius of using the stove pipe is that it not only reduces the fumes significantly but also redirects the soot those things produce when you have the flame on high. One other idea.... Could you add some scented oil to the paraffin to make whatever smell does escape smell better? I'd add a pine or cedar scent to it if possible.

My hypothesis is most of the heat generated will leave the tent thru the pipe so you might get a little heat but I dont think it'll be a big difference. A second thought is you might be suffocating the fire... the holes covered by the pipe is both intake and exhaust and the holes you are gonna cover with aluminum foil is intake not exhaust. EDIT1: I thinking no more than 5 degree Fahrenheit ... which is something like 2.5 degrees Celsius. EDIT2: Whoa, that's quite a difference. An oil lamp would be simpler to modify and you can pretty much exhaust 100% with no effort... safety/fragility might be an issue compared to an oil lantern though.
Not outta work to watch this yet. But this is what I’ve been doing with the uco candlelier. At least in moderate temps it seems to keep a baseline. ...moderate temps. Atleast until my t1 arrives this weekend.

For the weight, I think you would be better off with a half dozen tea candles. Each one puts out 50 BTU, I'm guessing that lantern puts out about 300 BTU. That way you are only carrying the fuel (the candles) Each candle lasts about 3 hours, so it would get cold at night, but there are 8-hour and 12-hour candles out there.
Loved this! Do you plan on putting bit to a real world test? Cold snowy overnighter perhaps? If you do...besides the mods you already proposed I would suggest a reflector and/or a stone enclosure to reflect and radiate the heat. Great job man. Really enjoyed this episode!

trim your wick and turn it down just before it starts to smoke and you will have a clean burn, the flame I saw was a smoker, I can tell you are burning with the wick raised too tall, by the smoked up globe...turn your wick down and you wont have the smoke problem! The paraffin you burn is the cleanest available! I dont want to be an ass here but your wick was raised to high if the paraffin wa smokey!!!!! The only problem with paraffin is that if the wick is wider than 3/4 of an inch paraffin doesn't wick as efficiently as K1 ( cleaning burning kerosene). Buring a 7/8 wick dietz jupiter lantern for two fill ups of a total of about 150 hours burn time will not smoke the globes up as bad as you had them...lol turn that wick down just a little past where it starts to smoke!

This is a nice test, i would suspect it wont be as efficient at sub freezing temperatures. You need more BTUs for it. I do think a bigger Kerosine stove with 8 wicks and some modifications can do it. You need a bigger mesh heat spreader and a reflector to begin with. Basically a tiny version of a larger home Kerosine heater. I recently acquired a model 138 from a Chinese company that makes these green stoves in the millions. Weighs about 700 grams and can be modified easily to produce heat more efficiently. Costs about $15 with shipping. A liter will get you up to 8-12 hours burning (cooking) time at your leisure. All parts can be easily folded (Nested) inside a Pan or cylindrical cooking set. Only the base should be changed to significantly reduce the packing size. Kerosine or Parafine should be able to be drained back in a bottle.

Could you mount a heat fan to the stove pipe? And the heat would blow through the tent or truck topper?
Mentioning the type of oil you use is paramount to the time frame of the wick as well as the heat it puts off. One year as I was raiding the local thrift store of non decorative candles (to reuse or melt down and make new candles with), this lady told me about a saving tool for her brother, whom had gotten stuck out in a snowstorm. 12hrs later and the one thing that kept him from hypothermia was a small candle.

The stove pipe is warm ,because that's where the heat is leaving the inside of the tent. If the lantern is vented there is no way to avoid that parasitic BTU loss. A Jupiter lantern with a 7/8 inch wick will give slightly over 1000 BTU output running on Kerosene. If you expect to cook with that you will very disappointed. Seeing how this video is a year old , you must have already learned that.
