Anyway, am looking at getting a second one too because a coal fire burns down slowly like any solid fuel does. It will certainly burn overnight, or even a couple days, but doesn't seem to put out much heat anymore at the half-way point. Using wood or fresh thermal coal, it can cook you out of the place if you want. So it works really well, but needs some fine-tuning.
I can probably get you coal.
A guy here has a umpteen ton pile, I can ask if you want?
