Giving some thought to buying a woodstove fan. Has anyone here had experience with one--or more?

Not just woodstoves, but the above fans are self-powered by any heat source of more than 120°F.

On a related subject, I'm thinking about replacing my otherwise-excellent Trinity III woodstove with a much larger wood-fired "cookstove". I've just been told they use more firewood, but my mid-teens "Down-East" experience with a monster cookstove is much different.

For weeks at a time, breakfasts around here need more than one cooking surface besides our 70-years-old electric range.

I researched them and thought I was getting a good one. Waste of money. You can put you hand in front of it and feel no breeze
