Details
Built to Boil Fast and Pack Small
HES Fin Base Cuts Heat Loss
A finned heat-exchanger base wraps the burner's heat around the container instead of letting it escape into the air.
Folding Pot Support Locks Onto the Stove
The pot support stand folds flat for storage and locks onto a hole beside the stove head with a clockwise twist, letting the burner run standard cookware when needed.
Upgraded Gas Canister Base
A newly upgraded base holds the fuel canister steady on flat ground, minimizing the risk of it tipping over during use, and flips over for compact storage.
Lid Doubles as a Frying Pan
The fluororesin-coated lid isn't just for keeping heat in -- flip it over and it works as a small frying pan.
The Whole Kit Packs Into One Pouch
Lid, container, folding stand, stove body, and gas base all pack into a single storage pouch, keeping the full setup grab-and-go for backpacking.
In the Field
From Trailhead to Camp Table
On the Trail
Water Boiling Before Camp's Even Set Up
Set it on a camp table or the ground and it's boiling water in under 3 minutes, whether you're stopping for coffee on the trail or settling in for the night.
After Dark
Still Glowing When the Sun Goes Down
The radiant mesh burner keeps working the same way after dark as it does at noon, so dinner doesn't wait on daylight.

FAQ
Common Questions
Does it come with a gas canister or a lighter?
No -- it runs on screw-type butane gas canisters (230/450g), sold separately, and ignition is manual, so you'll need a lighter or match.
How do I light it?
Turn the control knob counterclockwise to the ON position while lighting the burner with a lighter or match.
Can I use it with a regular pot or pan?
Yes -- the folding pot support stand locks onto the side of the stove head with a clockwise twist, letting it run standard cookware.
Can I use it indoors?
No -- like any gas stove, it's for outdoor use only. Using it indoors, in a tent, or in a vehicle risks carbon monoxide poisoning.
When can I pack the gas canister away?
Only after the product has fully cooled down -- storing a hot canister risks explosion.
From the curator
Why we carry it.
That infrared mesh burner glowing orange is genuinely satisfying to watch work, but it's the gas canister base that sold me -- I've knocked a canister over mid-boil on a lesser stove before, and this one just sits steady. Being able to flip the lid over and fry an egg on it after boiling water for coffee is the kind of two-for-one that actually gets used, not just advertised.
