Specifications
This stove weighs 90 grams and is ideal for backpacking in the backcountry.
The fuel is LPG ( liquefied propane gas ). The burner parts are constructed of brass, aluminum, and stainless steel. The stove burner has an output of 10000 BTU’s and it will boil 1 liter of water in 3.5 to 4 minutes at sea level. It simmers very well and I have also added the windscreen that goes with this stove.
My Review Of This Stove
I have owned The Snow Peak Gigapower Stainless Steel Stove for many years now and I have carried it with me almost every time I head out into the backcountry. This stove is not in the same league as the ” white gas ” type stoves, however, if you are looking for an excellent, top performer this is a stove that I can surely recommend!
My Favorite
This is my favorite stove and it has never let me down.
I always carry this in my day-pack with a small 110-gram canister for a quick mid-day coffee or tea.
It fits well into the Snow Peak pot and cup, – canister and stove.
Excellent companion in the Backcountry!
Don’t leave home without it!
