MSR WindPro Stove

Item #CAS0372 | 20 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Excellent for short backpacking trips.

By Ranked #274 - Canister Stoves June 6, 2005

I purchased this stove due to the small weight, size and ease of use. It requires much less hassle (maintenance, priming, cleaning, pressurizing) than a liquid stove. Since I primarily go on weekend hikes, this fit the bill perfectly. This setup is excellent for short (1-2) night backpacking trips in above freezing areas. WARNING: Fuel canisters will not work below freezing. Even fuels labeled for cold weather (80/20 iso blend) require that you put the canister in 1-2in of water during use to avoid freezing. Also, there is no good indicator for the fuel level for these canisters - Brunton makes a "Gas Gauge" that can read the amount, but at a buck a piece and single use only, just buy a new canister if unsure.
