    Not Primus, but general stove-ness.

    Bought the Fire Maple copy of a Jetboil from PX recently. Tested it in the garden and it fried an egg as quick as indoors.

    But it’s bulky, so I reverted to searching for ultralight options. Got a Coghlans version of the army stove on order, as I remember mixed-positive results wild camping with one many years ago.

    Trying to find the ‘right’ miniature meths stove from the million options on ebay.

    In the mean time this super small credit-card-size emergency stove arrived. So I grabbed some Zip firelighters and broke off a block to test it against a tin of soup.

    Needless to say, well... I got 10 minutes burn time out the fuel anyway.

  • FireMaple are the supplier for for AlpKit as far as I'm aware. So they do decent stoves.

    Also, take the paper wrapping off the can of soup before putting in on an open flame.

    Yep for sure. Not sure why I left it on to test the stove, some backwards logic.
