Jetboil Manual

neil — Fri, 22 May 2009 09:06:23 GMT

Convenient

Jetboil includes all the elements required for outdoor cooking in a single unit. Burner and cooking cup are integrated into a single package. Assembly and priming are not required.

Fast

FluxRing™ technology makes Jetboil a faster boiler than competing stoves. This speed, coupled with minimal setup, makes it the quickest way to get hot food into your stomach.

Light and Compact

With the diameter of a Nalgene® bottle and less height, Jetboil stows in places standard cooksets won&'t go, like the side pocket of your rucksack. At under 0.5kg, Jetboil rivals the very lightest titanium cooksets and micro-canister stoves. When adding the weight savings from fuel efficient operation, Jetboil is without rival for fast and lightweight use.

Usage

Jetboil's functionality and ease of use are unparalleled. The base and cooking cup snap securely together during use. Piezo electric igniter lights quickly and easily. Heat level can be dialed in to meet your exact needs. After heating is complete, the cooking cup unsnaps from the base and the contents stay insulated. For stowage, the base and canister nest inside the cup and the lid seals it closed to form one compact unit.

All the components can be packed into the pot, leaving room for a 100 gram LP gas cartridge.

Primus EtaPower MF Manual

neil — Thu, 21 May 2009 10:58:09 GMT

Multifuel version of the effective, fuelefficient EtaPower

PRIMUS's new EtaPower MF stove once again positions Primus as the pioneer among outdoor stove manufacturers. This stove is based on the award-winning EtaPower EF, but it has been refined with a perfectly adjusted preheating coil, an improved burner, and a number of smaller changes from its predecessor. This allows the stove to be used with both LP gas and liquid fuels, such as white gas, gasoline/petrol, kerosene/paraffin, and if necessary even diesel. This in turn leads to even lower fuel consumption and a lower overall weight during hikes, paddling tours, and expeditions. The stove comes with a burner base, windscreen, 2.1 l EtaPower pot with heat exchanger, frying pan, handle, ErgoPump, 0.35 l fuel bottle, multitool, and a storage bag that can even be used to insulate the pot.

Insulated Bag

The insulated bag can be used to keep food simmering in the pot off the stove, saving even more fuel. The lid of the bag has been designed with a "lip" at the front to allow the cooking pot to grasped using the pot handle.

Primus EtaPower EF Manual

neil — Thu, 21 May 2009 10:47:49 GMT

Fuel Efficient

EtaPower is the new, highly effective fuel-efficient stove from PRIMUS.

Primus has used a combination of a heat exchanger on the base of the pot and an integrated wind screen, resulting in a fast, fuel efficient stove. Two people can cook for almost a week using just a 220 gram gas canister compared to around 3 days for a traditional stove. This helps you to save weight and packing on your trip.

Primus Gravity ll Manual

neil — Thu, 21 May 2009 10:42:10 GMT

The Gravity EF stove has had a major face-lift. That means the good stability the stove has always had is now even better, and the piezo igniter is positioned to make it is easier to use. This is the stove for people who want a stable, small stove but still appreciate the simplicity of LP gas. Thanks to the preheating coil, the stove can also be used in low temperatures. The stove has four stable, foldable legs, which means you can even use it with larger pots. The Gravity II EF comes with a windscreen, heat reflector, and nylon stuff sack.

Optimus Terra Cookset Manual

neil — Tue, 19 May 2009 15:58:51 GMT

Silent packing pans that stays hot longer. A set that eliminates pan rattle when hiking and even cooks food without a flame. Well, almost. The slim-fit insulated stuff bag made of nylon and neoprene allows you to boil water, kill the flame, strap on the packing bag and to continue the cooking process. Imagine, cook simmering foods like rice or noodles and save fuel by doing so. Or get both pots cooking at once and have some tomato sauce with those noodles.

All three pans are made of hard-anodized aluminium and the skillet and smaller pot are grooved on the bottom for increased stability on the burner. The slim-fit stuff bag and the larger pot protect the DuPont Teflon coating on the frying surface of the skillet and smaller pot. Bon appétit!

Optimus Stella Plus Manual

neil — Tue, 19 May 2009 15:52:14 GMT

So much stove, so little wasted space. At first glance it might appear that the Optimus Stella+ has been run over by a large truck, but it only locks that way because it's folded for space-efficient packing. The Optimus Stella+ is a transformer that unfolds into a stable base that's able to accommodate enough soup for a small army. Even the burner head is foldable, it's the same technology used on our most compact burner, the Optimus Crux. When the burner is unfolded for cooking, it's ready in a snap. Once attached to a gas canister, all that's left to do is open the valve, fire the built-in pieze igniter and remember where you packed your grandma's recipe for Beef Wellington.
