Wildside Adventures FeatherLight 700 Alcohol Stove Kit

Next up: Trail Designs Sidewinder Ti w/ Kojin for my Evernew 570ml pot.

I just did a quick test in my backyard in Adelaide. Apologies I messed up my weighing of the fuel before/after so I don’t have that number.

But it was pretty fast to boil, all things considered, 9.5minutes.

Air temp: 14C

Water temp: 18C (from my tap)

Wind was probably 15kph on average for most of it

Oh, altitude 55m ;-)

This kind of time I think is more than fast enough for a stove. Sure, it only takes a few minutes for a canister stove, but this is a nice comfortable amount of “pottering time”. If it was 20mins I’d be getting impatient for sure. I usually wish canister stoves are slower when I use them, simply as I haven’t finished other tasks yet!

Certainly this kit is very nice. Looking forward to using it properly in action in a couple of weeks time :-)
