I was once camped at the bottom of a canyon and was stargazing one night. I noticed a dim star which appeared to be moving and thought it might be a satellite until I realized that its movements appeared to be fairly random. To make a long story shorter, I can tell you that I eventually learned that this star was in fact the blue light of someone's stove which they were using as a flashlight to find their way down into the canyon. Keep in mind that this was a STEEP canyon with several sheer drop offs. I don't think this use of a stove is what you had in mind and I certainly wouldn't recommend it but this use did present an amusing distraction for me and my group.
