I am undecided between the PF13L160 and the PF13L130.

Inquiry:

I am undecided between the PF13L160 and the PF13L130. Can flame be regulated in both? Which one is better for Chinese wok stir-frying?

And which one is better for using with discadas like this one: http://www.southwestdisk.com/18-madrid-discada/.

Outdoorstirfry:

In both cases, PF13L160 would be better.   The burner in PF13L160 is bigger and is able to spread the flame wider.  Flame in both can be adjusted.

Inquiry:

If I buy the PF13S160, can I then make a hole in a steel table like in the pic attached and use it. What diameter should I make the hole and will the stick go through? Have you tried it?

Outdoorstirfry:

We have many customers built our stove into their outdoor kitchen similar to building into a cart.  Typically the hole you open will need to be smaller than the top diameter of the windguard of the stove.

Inquiry:

Also, can the legs be detached completely, so that I can use the unit both self-standing during camping trips and embedded in a steel table while at home? Can you please tell me the exact diameter of the circular hole I need to make in my steel table for the 13 inch PF13L160 model, so that it fits snugly?

Outdoorstirfry:

Yes the long legs can be detached easily by three screws.   We will get you the recommended diameter by this evening.

Inquiry:

Perfect, thanks! This is exactly what I need. Final question. Do you also sell a wok with handle that is light, in the original Chinese style, so that I can toss? In your videos you often use a two handled wok and leave it there, but I prefer having the options of tossing.

Outdoorstirfry:

The carbon steel wok is exactly what you need https://outdoorstirfry.com/?page_id=338#CarbonSteelWSL.   IT is the same as the wok on top of the stainless cart picture you sent before.

Inquiry:

Last thing: what is the diameter of the carbon steel wok on your website that fits that 13 inches burner?

Outdoorstirfry:

It is 14″.

Inquiry:

I suppose I can ALSO use the burner with a 17 inch flat cast iron pan like the following by just leaving it on it, right?  https://www.amazon.com/Lodge-Seasoned-Cast-Skillet-Handles/dp/B00063RWVG

Outdoorstirfry:

The burner flame should be able to reach this flat pan.

Would it be okay to have propane running alongside the natural gas line?

Inquiry:

Hello, I’m planning on getting one of your burners for my husband for Christmas. This will be used in our outdoor kitchen. We currently have a natural gas line for our grill, so I was planning on getting a natural gas burner but the propane burners get so much hotter, I think it would be better. Is there any way I can do a built in propane burner next to the grill and just leave a propane tank in the cabinet below? Would it be okay to have propane running alongside the natural gas line? Sorry for all the questions! Thanks in advance, he has been talking about a wok burner for a long time!

Outdoorstirfry:

Propane gas is high pressured such that it can deliver much higher heat.  There is no conflict to have natural gas powered appliance on the side of a propane gas powered burner.   These two appliances have their own hoses or pipes.   You can leave the propane bottle in your cabinet as long as it is convenient to take it out and put a new one in.  Propane tank eventually runs out of gas and you need to exchange the empty one with a full one in a local hardware store or gas station.

Hope we answer your question.

EF13SQN50WG – Will this be high enough for frying a turkey (crab boil type pot)?

Customer (EF13SQN50WG stove):  Will this be high enough for frying a turkey (crab boil type pot)?

Outdoorstirfry:

I believe deep frying stove is of about 55kBTU/Hr and uses propane stove.   The stove you ordered is of natural gas type which is not as hot as a propane fuel type.   We have not heard any customer attempting for deep frying turkey task.    However if you try, please let us know the outcome.  We do  have customer customized this type of stove for home brewing purpose.

I know these are a lot of questions, but it’s a big purchase and I like to be informed.

Inquiry:

Hi,

I’m very interested in purchasing your 13 inch manual ignition

PF13xx130 wok burner and I had a few questions I hope you could help me out with. 1)Why does the flat bottom cookware adapter not work with the electronic ignition? 2) How should I store the wok burner when not in use? Do I need to cover it with something or can I leave it uncovered? 3) I plan to leave it outside all seasons(I don’t have a garage), will anything happen to it when it snows/rains? 4)Can I leave the propane tank outside during the snow and rain? 5)Where are the wok burners manufactured?

I know these are a lot of questions, but it’s a big purchase and I like to be informed. Thank you again for your help, I hope to buy your product soon.

Outdoorstirfry:

  1. The wok adapter of our existing PF13xx130EI (or PF13xx160EI) is an integral piece of the wind guard. Because of this, we can’t put a flat grate on its top.
  2. We typically flip the wok upside down to cover the burner. Leaving the burner not covered is not advised as dirt can clog any burner hole.
  3. You can leave the burner outside. The burner is of cast iron and the PF13xx130 wind guard is of steel.   They will rust under rain and snow.   Rust affects the look but not its functionality.
  4. You can leave the propane tank outdoor. The same to the burner, a propane tank can rust under rain/snow condition.
  5. We make the wok burner here in USA. We get our material from our vendors locally in California.  However we don’t know where they get their material from.

Hi – I just ordered one of your stoves via amazon. This order is for my sister in Puerto Rico who has no power but has access to natural gas. Once I get the package here I will be mailing it to her so she can cook. Is there any way to get the stove shipped quicker? Please.

Customer:

Wow. You did not have to do this but it is so very much appreciated.  As I was reading the email to my husband we both teared up.

Last night I sent a note to my sister that the burner might not arrive until late in the month (at the earliest) but that I was going to contact you to see if I could expedite the delivery. She responded this morning very positive saying that the important thing is that it will get to her and not to worry about the time frame.  She will be incredibly happy to hear about your generosity and the very quick response.

Thank you again.

Outdoorstirfry:

You are welcome.   USPS has picked up the package.   You should be able to start tracking it.    Hope your shipping to Puerto Rico will be smooth and condition on your sister side improves soon.

Customer:

I wanted to give you an update. Your package arrived yesterday afternoon and I was able to send it off to my sister last night. (There is a post office near by that is open late). I sent it 2/3 day shipping but given the circumstances in Puerto Rico they don’t guarantee the delivery.

Again thank you for your generosity and compassion for those in need.  May God Bless you!

If i order a PF13L160EI, can it be configured with metal hose?

Customer:

I have been a long time user of your stove. I am about to order a new one to replace the one i have been using for 10 years. How come the picture in the Home page uses a metal braided hose while the product comes with a rubber hose which is subject to cracking? If i order a PF13L160EI, can it be configured with metal hose? Thanks.

Outdoorstirfry:

We just updated our PF13xx160 series stove with a hose having stainless braided cover end of last month.   If you order a PF13L160EI stove, it will go with a rubber hose without stainless braid cover.   So far only our PF13xx160 series will go with the stainless braid cover.   We are working on an upgrade of our PF13xx160EI stove and can include a stainless braid cover on the hose in the future.  However we don’t have a timeline of its production yet.

In fact within the stainless braid cover it is still a rubber/PVC hose.   It can still age and crack.  The pro is that no mouse/squirrel like to bite on stainless braid and the rubber hose will last longer under the stainless cover.  However the con is that now crack on the inner rubber hose is impossible to be spotted or inspected.

Hope we answer your question.   Can you consider ordering PF13xx160 series instead if you prefer hose with stainless braid cover?

Customer:

I looked at the pictures of the PF13x160 and PF13x160EI, even though one has an ignition,  the regulators look different. Are they functionally the same with the excepton of the ignition switch? Now i cannot decide which one to go for.

Outdoorstirfry:

Both regulators provide the same regulated pressure to the stove, functionally the same.   The regulator for PF13xx160 is fixed and can’t not be adjusted.  It also come in ACME type 1 QCC connector that is more a norm in this country than a POL these days.

Let us know any further question.

what kind of fire resistant gloves you would recommend?

Customer:

We will be using your burners to cook outside and I was wondering what kind of fire resistant gloves you would recommend. I have looked at silicone, neoprene, and welding gloves. I’m not sure which would be the best protection and offer the chef the best dexterity. Please let me know which brand you like as well. I need to get these as soon as possible, and have been looking for quite awhile. It just occurred to me to ask you. Thank you!

Outdoorstirfry:

Our burners are constructed in a way that the chef will not be harmed by the flame.    This is one advantage of our burners as compared with other offerings in the market.

Let us know if you have further question.
