This Is A Remote Canister Stove To Consider Buying For Many Reasons

Pros

  • Boils water insanely fast
  • Good temperature control from simmer to full out inferno.

Cons

  • A little on the heavy side. Weighs in at 8.5 ounces (not including fuel can).

I did a boil test at 3,000 feet above sea level. I used an adapter to propane  (small, light and easy to install). For the pot I used the Optimus Terra Weekend HE .The outside temp was 57 degrees with 10-15 mph wind gust.

Here are my timed results for boiling water to a  rolling boil:

  • 16 oz water took 35 seconds.
  • 24 oz came in at 1 minute and 1 second.

I could not believe the results and tested again and got similar boil times within a 10 second range.

Background

Because of the cup design around the burner assembly this stove does very well in windy environments. The burner orifices are angled to create a vortex pattern which may help explain faster boiling time.

One of the main reasons I bought this stove was for home emergency use during power outages. Many1lb propane canisters will ensure you will have more cooking options during blackouts.
