This is kinda neat little gadget that might find many uses. Consider that alcohol can be made out of honey ( for mead or brandy ), you can have something pretty useful.
For example, it can make a low level flame for cooking beans, which requires several hours of burn time. Or, to boil some water for purification. Whatever makes the most sense. Honey is probably not the best choice, but there may be others that can be used for alcohol.
One problem is that there is no information as to how useful this stove is. The flame may not be all that hot. If not, then it may not be useful after all.
A little more looking and I found this video of another design, with some tests. It burned for 14 minutes, and boiled up 2 cups of water in about 5 minutes. That will give you an idea of what may be possible with this thing.
