Great Bail-Out Rappel Ring
Omega Pacific Rappel Ring
October 15, 2008
Just to be clear, this is NOT a belay device or rappel device--it is intended only to be used as a hardware alternative for creating a bail-out anchor to rappel off of. These are great to carry with you because they are so light and inexpensive. Though permanent rappel anchors should use Stainless Steel or Platted Steel--matching the rest of the hardware.

SnowPeak fixed the "off position"
Snow Peak GigaPower Stove, Titanium Manual Ignition
August 17, 2008
I heard older stoves had a "weird" issue where the gas control had to be in the open position to fold correctly for storing. This isn't a big prolem until you forget to turn it all the way off before connecting your fuel to the stove. Apparently, SnowPeak fixed this, because my stove folds for storing in the off position--GOOD JOB SnowPeak.

Not Double Boot??? Sizing a bit small.
Scarpa Phantom Lite Mountaineering Boot - Men's
May 23, 2008
Pretty cool, but I returned them because they're not exactly a double boot in the sense that the liner is not removable. So I ordered a pair of Scarpa Phantom 6000 instead, and I love them. But the sizing is pretty small. I'm generally a size 10, and I had to get size 45 for these boots.

Answer to: "Will this run only on SnowPeak canisters or also on Primus-compatibles?..."
Snow Peak GigaPower Stove, Titanium Manual Ignition
May 2, 2008
SnowPeak says to only use their GigaPower fuel. But it seams to me that it works with any fuel canister that fits it (Primus Power, MSR IsoPro, Jetboil Jet Power). (But let's be honest, SnowPeak's GigaPower is TOTALLY the most awesome looking.)
This stove can use any Lindal valve (screw-on) fuel canister.
