the JB weighs 23.4oz with a 230g can, the difference isn't huge.

@canadianvirgil I guess the difference of 28.55 oz to 23.40 oz would be huge to a gram weenie...hehe! That's the reason for the Heini cook kits. My complete Heini cook kit weighs only 13.70 oz. and will boil 2 cups in about 10 to 11 min. in summer...haha. Forget Alcy in a Canadian winter, I don't care how much Tinny trys to convince people :o)

I hear ya, in winter ultra light goes down the crapper, besides that's what sleds are for lol.

Great job bro :o) If that fuel isn't a three fuel mix it shouldn't be classified as 4 season. Butane, Propane, and isobutane. That's what Primus is :o) But it' has a lot to do with the design of the stove itself. The Reactor gives a radiant type heat and has a built in regulator. al this combined with the built in heat exchanger is what makes this stove kick butt...hehe! *****5/5**** :o)

[canadianvirgil]

funny enough the Jetboil is very similar to the MSR Reactor, it has a regulator, and a "flux ring" (Heat exchanger) although the MSR reactor boils water significantly faster, although the jetboil is lighter and a little more fuel efficent. They are both solid stoves ,but if your fuel sucks your hooped regardless lol.

Hehe! I haven't used a white gas stove I was going to buy the MSR XGE because you can simmer with it! I was thinking the whisperlite but I have enough stove without simmer mode...hehe!

What are you doing Richard you trouble maker he hee I am fortunate we don't get that cold here in Pa but haven't been a fan of canister fuel any who. Have you tried white gas with like a msr shaker stove just curious I don't own one. Good video canadianvirgil
