I would almost equate them to kiln-dried wood. They do get very hot, but with everything on a wood stove you really need to be aware of what's going on. Always good to err on the side of caution.
I agree, I have used a couple of BIO-Bricks or similar products at a time to supplement the cord wood, in my Jotul stove as well, with good results, but would never fire to capacity and use them as a main source of fuel.

I find they especially help when trying to get the stove fired, hot, and working efficiently, when I first arrive at the camp.
