I used mine, yesterday, for the first time. I was very impressed. After I used it, and was packing up, I noticed that it was not hot. It cooled off very quickly and I could pack it. It heated up very fast! It was cold outside and it gave us a warm meal and hot tea.
I would suggest a few changes. 1. Make the pot “universal” with a sold separately option so it can be used with other stoves. 2. Make the stove with a deeper concave design like Soto to provide more wind resistance. 3. Offer a 1 liter option. I definitely like the overall design and weight though.
Someone should really start a YT channel testing al kinds of stuff based on how well it stands up to Nerf darts 😂 Amazing job on your channel by the way! I scrolled back all the way back to 2016 to see some embarrassing first videos but nope, quality right from the start.
How many times can you boil water with one (1) cannister ? How many cannisters would be required if using the Jetboil three (3) to five (5) times per day for three (3) days ?
That's a tricky question, because it depends on temperature, wind and the amount of water you want to boil. But on average, if we assume that you boil half a liter of water, I'd estimate you'd get a little over 10 boils out of a 100g canister. Since 500ml is on the high end for food prep, 1 small canister for 3 days seems feasible in fair weather.
Be careful with the tinfoil hat, as jetboil states in their instructions: -do not use windscreen or outback oven; this can overheat the fuel canister, resulting in explosion. I think it's safe to use the tinfoil hat though, just don't use a windscreen! (And of course don't wrap it all around the canister)
Super useful find, thanks! I've always assumed you're safe as long as you only use a windscreen on one side of the canister, but that IS a rather ominous-sounding warning. So something like a Soto Windmaster would probably be a better bet for those looking to camp out in windy conditions.

You just combined my two hobbies.

Nice review! Love the genius testing with the Nerf gun hahah
Thanks, I may have had a little too much fun with that one 😅

No. Getva soto wondmaster and a toaks ti pot. Half thr weight and cheaper.
Certainly a good setup, especially in windy conditions! Probably a bit slower though, and not as stable.
