Personally, I think its a great idea for YOU to use it, figuring that Darwinian processes might strengthen the human gene pool here. However, I wouldn't want others to think that your guidance is anything but ridiculous.
So, you've been to his house to check on the stability of the burner with a full kettle on top? No? Are you an engineer? Do you have any legitimate method other than dogpiling on with others to determine the safety of this setup?
Honestly, some of the stuff I see on this forum scares the bejeesus out of me: two-by-four contraptions to strap angle grinders to kegs, hlt's full of scalding hot water perched precariously atop whatever junk happens to be laying around, modifying pressure cookers to act as steam boilers, putting water heater elements into tubes with the wrong threads and hoping the controller doesn't fail... the list goes on.
To be honest, what he did is pretty tame.
