Thanks Paul
Over-tired. So are several other people here in Warsaw. We are blundering around "out of time".
Re the 1987 date, to get a product designed, tested and at least a few iterations, plus the development of a fuel supply sure took a year and a half.
That puts the genesis of that stove earlier than the Spring of 1986, maybe.
It is very likely that it was made from regular drum material by a 'duacali' so it will have rusted away by now. We might find someone who made one...

Crispin,
That is the third different year you have stated. I will base my commnets on the 1987 date.
The correction of the date means:
1. 1987 preceeds Wendelbo's stated 1988 start. Therefore, it did not come from him. An no realistic chance to have been influenced by Reed's work that stated in 1985.
2. So it all boils down to you finding some evidence about what you saw in Kampala in 1987. No evidence means it is only what you say you remember of what you think you saw 30 years ago, and that does not make it into the recorded history of what is now called TLUD technology. Evidence please.

Sorry for my typo
That should have read 1987 not 2007.
Please re-read and re-interpret.
The reason I know about it is I was in Kampala in 1987.
Apologies for confusion

Crispin, please clarify.
1. We agree that Wendelbo started in 1988 in Norway and was successful
in northern Uganda in the mid to late 1990s.
2. So, anything in Kampala by 2007 is AFTER Wendelbo. So you cannot
call that 2007 activity "predecessor technology." Any TLUD-style
stoves in Kampala in 2007 could have sprung from Wendelbo's earlier work.
3. Please provde some (any) documentation about the 2007 stoves that
you mention.
4. In 2009 the PCIA Forum was in Kampala. I was there and showed TLUD
stoves (Champion style). Karsten Bechtel of CREEC was there, and from
that interaction (with some kind words from Christa Roth, I am sure),
the proposal for World Bank's BEIA funding was prepared for the TLUD
project by CREEC (the first and only such funding for a TLUD project),
with me as technical advisor, that gave rise to the Mwoto TLUD stove.
The BEIA project ended in August 2012, and Awamu started in Sept and so
did Mwoto Factories (with Awamu continuing still).
5. But never in those 2009 and later years did anyone in Kampala or on
a listserv comment about some TLUD stoves in Kampala in 2007. Some sort
of supportive evidence is requested. Such stoves COULD have been there
(with probable roots traced to Wendelbo). But we need some support for
your statement.

There is a great deal of biomass around Kampala in the form of reeds and bullrushes which served as the fuel source.
