It’s perfect for my utilisation : it makes one liter of water boil in 15-20 minutes and cooks a meal for 3 people in something like 45-60 minutes on good days
The parabola is approximately 1.5 m wide and 50 cm deep. The larger the aperture size, the more powerful it becomes. It’s quite stiff as it is with the bamboo ring, but if you want to make it bigger, you’ll need to find some other ways to stiffen it.
