Extra Large Rolling Suitcase Evacuated Tube Cooker! This extra-large diameter solar cooker makes greater sense for a more reasonable quantity of food than the Go Sun models we have listed on our website. Despite claims, the Go Sun Sport or Pro Pack is a small volume solar cooker, inadequate for families of 3 or more despite manufacture's claims, in our opinion. Evacuated tube solar cookers are much hotter and cook much faster than box solar cookers or solar ovens. Cooking results with all solar cookers are weather and latitude dependent. Inadequate sunlight results in inadequate cooking results, period.
Size comparison: XL, Large, & Go Sun Sport
Box solar cookers and solar ovens are usually the best options for families of 4 or more, due to the size restriction of narrow diameter evacuated tubes, used in most of Go Sun's solar cooker products. We find box cookers require prolonged cooking times and constant monitoring, and adjustment for best results. We are based in the Pacific Northwest and solar cooking is not always viable due to our Northerly latitude. We enjoy solar cooking. In our location, we use solar cookers to augment stoves (biomass off-grid stoves are first-line recreational and emergency cooking options, because the sun is not always shining!). We have found potatoes and other dense food still hard and undercooked on many solar cooking occasions, despite solar cooker type selected.
Solar cookers cannot heat massive amounts of water efficiently or quickly either, compared to a biomass stove and a hand full of twigs. A large diameter evacuated tube solar cooker is a much more reliable off-grid solution for multiple dishes and larger water heating capacities, however still pales to the direct performance of an efficient stove for large water volume production required for cooking, sanitizing safe drinking water, or for cleaning, bathing, or sanitizing cookware.
This extra-large volume diameter tube solar cooker comes with a rolling suitcase and adjustable carriage to efficiently position and aim your solar cooker, for fast and efficient results. A directional sundial gauge attached to the top stainless steel tube collar to insure fine-tuned, directional sun alignment.
Evacuated tubes are made of borosilicate glass and are breakable if dropped, thermal shocked, or mishandled. The protective suitcase offers the best protection we have found with any evacuated tube solar cooker. The wind is an enemy of most solar cookers, use protection in wind. Lash your unit down in wind or you may be sorry. Use good common sense and you should have years of enjoyment with your solar cooker.
Each unit comes with several components:
Large ss stew pot insert
Small stew pot insert
2 cook & grill basket pans
Glass beverage carafe
Cleaning rod & 3 brushes
2 oven mitts
1 set of tongs
Manual
Recipe book
Grill basket hook tool
Shipping is excessive on this item due to the requirement to ship it in an excessively large double carton box 40" Long x 13" Deep X 31" Tall for adequate protection.
