Lightweight, affordable, easy to use and well designed. Thats the sum of this great little stove I bought the other week, there's not much more to it than that...
Splash in a bit of meths to the centre of the stove and simply using a match or lighter, ignite the fuel. Give it a few seconds and the power of physics means the gases expand in the gape between the fuel holder and the outer wall and the pressurised vapours escape in a jet like form through the holes in the top... all very clever. It basically means you get a decent burn time of around 15mins; plenty of time to boil water or cook a meal.
As you can see it also came with a very neat pot stand that folds flat. Very handy. You'd want to buy or make a wind break if you were in a windy area or better still use it in a different stove set up...like a hobo stove. Theres a post to come on one of these...
So back to the start...lightweight, affordable and easy to use...and well designed. Thats the sum of this great little stove I bought the other week....
Stay safe...
