Heating your home during a power outage or to boost an existing system is simple. Just follow this simple step by step method of making a DIY heater that will heat an entire room in minutes. These micro heaters can be stored for years until one is needed during an emergency. In larger rooms four of them running simultaneously can heat even large rooms.

00:00 The video demonstrates how to make a "forever copper candle" that can burn indefinitely and provide heat and light during a power outage. The candle uses a glass jar with a metal lid, copper tubing, carbon felt wick, and denatured alcohol as fuel.
03:52 The key steps are: cutting the copper tubing to size, drilling holes in the inner tube to help the fuel wick, wrapping the carbon felt wick around the inner tube, and sealing the jar with JB Weld. The fuel reservoir can be filled with denatured alcohol or high-proof rubbing alcohol.
10:59 Safety is emphasized, as the fumes from the fuel can be toxic. It's recommended to use the candle in a well-ventilated area or with a safety monitoring system. The video also demonstrates how the candle's flame and heat output can vary depending on the length of the inner copper tube.
16:34 The longer the inner copper tube, the larger the flame and the more heat the candle produces. The candle can also be used to heat a greenhouse or small room by placing a flower pot or other metal container on top of it.
