Optimus Nova Stove
good stove

April 24, 2007
I've had this stove now for about 3 years. Its worked in all kinds of Alaskan and Yukon conditions including lots of below zero deg F camping trips.
On a -15 deg F morning the thing could only pump out a lukewarm cup of coffee and a half liter of water. So when it warmed up I took the thing apart and removed a "wax" plug. I used the magnetic cleaning tool. The thing works like a champ now. If you are going to break you otta be easy to fix. And this stove is just that.
Great stove.
