Perhaps this may be helpful or not....
If one is making claims like this, show me the numbers, or I'm going to ignore you. Peter has consistently shown the numbers. I installed thermocouples in my stove so I could see the numbers.
This is the age of science. Show the numbers. No excuses.
So, yes, there are the numbers but they are on the quoted site.
https://www.drtlud.com/introduction/ For my money Don Ritter is comparing apples with oranges. The Top-loading Updraft (TLUD) cooker is just that. It is a fairly complicated (to my mind) cooking system with a carboniferous residue. The
RMH is primarily a space heater with adapted smart functions such as cooking and has a residue of some
carbon but mainly minerals left from the plant metabolism. the TLUD is metal and has to be manufactured by someone who has the skill/ tools. The
RMH can be made by anyone out of anything ground/ earth based with the addition or otherwise of a metal flue system.
Don Ritter has shared a third person narrative which is "a story" and therefore not necessarily fact. Solomon has chosen because there are no numbers (which there never usually are in a narrative) to ignore the post unless the numbers are produced. I went to the site and my take is that apples and oranges cannot be compared and both have their place in our world.
