I think the fact that you'd need a natural gas pipeline, or a propane tank out back, kind of negates the "disconnected from the grid" thingy. Also, where does one get the energy to heat the magic box to 1800 F?

from the box itself, i'd guess... electric heating elements?

    The chemical reaction heats up the box. However, large amounts of insulation is needed to retain the heat.
