Not the best I've seen

By Ranked #623 - Canister Stoves November 18, 2008

My buddy used this stove on a -30F artic tundra caribou hunting trip and it did not work so well. It does not have a auto igntition which at -30F, matches and lighters DO NOT work and when you're sitting in a 5 foot snow shelter trying to melt snow while half frozen, the last thing you want is to be fussing with matches and lighters, fumbling with gloves and pockets and the whole mess...I had my Coleman F1, which does have a auto ignite feature that worked first time, every time like a champ. We lit his stove with mine--then his would only stay half way lit around the burner--flame kept dancing around the burner. Not good when your life is depending on it--although it did work better in the tent off the mountain--not that that matters much then.

Auto Igniters are overrated, they usually break within a year
