ABSTRACT:
A heat generator apparatus includes a fuel container and a quantity of fuel absorbing material contained in the fuel container. A quantity of liquid fuel is contained in the fuel container and is absorbed by the fuel absorbing material. A fuel-impervious layer is placed on top of the fuel absorbing material, and a lid is provided for the fuel container. The fuel absorbing material is a roll of toilet paper which has had its core removed. The fuel-impervious layer is a layer of aluminum foil. A circumferential band can be placed around a circumference of the roll of toilet paper for preventing the roll of toilet paper from expanding radially. A fuel-impervious bag can be used to contain the fuel absorbing material and the fuel-impervious layer, which are all contained within the fuel container. An igniter container can be attached to a top portion of the lid. A plurality of matches are contained within the igniter container.
