Soto Windmaster

So for these kind of systems tend to rattle around a little bit, whereas a Jetboil yeah it's been designed, so everything just sticks together and you...

That's the Soto, wind master, super cool little stove, and I'm glad that I got it and basically these guys here have become obsolete and I'm in the lo...

There we've got the titan kettle for one situation with the 550 tokes and for solo backpacking. I'Ve got my 750 tokes with the sotto windmaster. All t...

The one drawback to this is, you can tell can't put the canister in there anymore. I guess I can find a different place for it. You know I guess I cou...

I don't want them to be extremely hard to move, but have just a little bit of resistance and kind of lock into place again, it's a personal preference...

And much lighter weight also. A 400gram canister lasts me for (over) a month while a liter of Meths (800gram) only for 2 weeks... And a canister stove is also lighter (I have SOTO windmaster (67 grams) but a MSR Pocketrocket2 is also a popular/similar alternative). Yes, you get every couple of weeks through a town where it's easy to get a canister at a sports/outdoor shop.

Everyone saying pocket rocket but honestly PLEASE look at the Soto Windmaster with a Toaks titanium pot. My Pocket Rocket 2 is great, but it takes a long while to boil water. My Windmaster (has a regulator in it so works way better even with lower fuel etc) boils a liter of water in 3.5 minutes. I’ve timed it.

I use a [Soto (3.1oz) with a Toaks 650ml pot and together its \~5oz for my cook system (not incl fuel). But hey, if the jetboil makes you happy, keep it. A lot of people here use the BRS stoves, but I find them flimsy and shitty. MSR's original pocket rocket is good, too!

It boiled 2 cups of water in 2 minutes 20 seconds. Ambient temperature was 55F and the water temp was 60F before boiling. This stove would be excellent in colder weather and when you want to use cheaper fuel, like butane for $1.50 for a 8.8oz can instead of shelling out $6 for a 8oz can of MSR, Jetboil, SnowPeak, GSI, Primus etc fuel (which are all manufactured by Kovea in South Korea).

The Soto Windmaster (along with the Pocket Rocket Deluxe) are considered to basically be the best on the market for canister stoves. The concave shape of the burner head helps block wind better and the micro regulator significantly helps boil times and cold weather performance.
