A Miniature Masterpiece
By A.R.M.
Ranked #633 - Canister Stoves
August 3, 2007
The Snow Peak Giga Power Manual stove is one of those few things almost can't be improved upon. It's simple, rugged, incredibly lightweight and compact, and even has four pot supports, which is significantly more stable than three.
I've had Piezo igniters fail and that's why I went with the manual version. I bring a Bic and matches with me anyway.
Definitely get the Snow Peak windscreen also. It's compact, reasonably light, and will improve fuel efficiency.
This is the stove that convinced me to switch from liquid fuel backpacking stoves. I'll never look back.
