FMS-300T Portable Stove Ultra Light, Hiking Stove Titanium for Backpacking Camping Outdoor, ISPO Design Award Gold Winner

This is a quality piece. I’ve got several versions of this design and hours and days of practical use has convinced me the Fire Maple stove is the best quality. Quick easy connection with minimal fuel loss. Durand compact construction.If minimal load and functional performance are required. This will do the job

For the last two years my cook kit has been the ultralight BRS stove and a SnowPeak titanium pot. This combination has been reliable and ultralight, which is important to me as an ultralight backpacker on trips up to 10 days without resupply.The Fire-Maple G3 heat exchanger pot and Hornet 2 stove attracted my attention as a possible way to save on fuel when boiling water for drinks and rehydrating meals. This is a comparison of my old kit and the Fire-Maple combination.I measured the time it took to reach a rolling boil with each system using 500ml of cold tap water with an indoor temperature of 75 degrees, at an elevation of 3300' (I live in the sierra foothills). Weights are actual weights from my digital scale.Time to boiling - Fire-Maple: 76 seconds BRS/SnowPeak: 167 secondsWeights G3 pot and lid 164gm 5.7oz SnowPeak pot and lid 116gm 4.0ozHornet 2 stove 47gm 1.6oz BRS stove 25gmI was impressed by the difference in boil times, which I attribute to the G3 heat exchanger pot. There is noticeably less heat coming up the sides of the pot with that system and after two boils the 30 locations where the heat exchanger is welded to the pot bottom could be clearly seen as discoloration on the inside bottom of the pot, which is where the heat transfer occurs. One boil with the Fire-Maple system used 7gm of fuel from my half-empty 100gm fuel cannister.Aside from the 2.5oz weight penalty of the Fire-Maple system there are no other drawbacks. The advantages are quicker boiling times and less fuel consumption, I like the insulated handle which also flips up to secure the lid when not in use, and the stove seems sturdy and well built with a larger support area than the BRS. The stove/pot combination is also very stable even with the small 100gm fuel cannister and automatically centers on the pot due to the slots in the heat exchanger. Neither stove will simmer well, they are meant to be used only full blast for boiling water.

Firewall FM16T1. The case is extremely Protective. The male fitting in the Base ensures Centering and Security. The Case is Bulky but efficient at it's JOB.2 Care is Needed in accembling of the Case-I found Back Threading added in proper Alignment of the Two Pieces. I suggest Not using a sub because of the Normal Work Conditions-(The Bush)3. The stove Seems well engineered and Assembled. Not being Pressure Regulated it's left to the user's Knowledge with the Stove to mintain the Proper Gas flow to perform as desired. (The need for speed compared to the Delicacy of the Item being Heated). I found the burner head control extremly GRATIFYING.I am giving these stove FOUR Stares-Only Ignorance & Arrogance can find Perfection. The only 5 Stars I've Found is "I AM"VALUE FOR MONY: Well it all depends, If your RUNING AND GUNING you cook it tell it doesn't Bleed then eat it and other Tim's you don't want your eggs to stick, Yes it's worth the money. After all it will work well in both casses.

Perfect size and weight for bikecamping or backpacking and doesn't take up too much room even with a canister of fuel. Seems very well made, not flimsy at all.

This small lightweight efficient and powerful little device gives you a great capability to cook just about anywhere. Highly efficient, the photos above showcase about the limit in size on what this thing can handle. It is a 14in wok with a 7in flat bottom and I have cooked 1lb frozen meals from completely frozen to fully cooked in about ten minutes. If you want piping hot it’s about 13min. I have cooked fresh pork chops and frozen egg rolls to restaurant crispy in about the same amount of time. It is an awesome device. 1l water in a fire maple heat exchanger pot is just about 3 min from cold straight from the tap outdoors. You will not be disappointed. Try it for yourself. I would absolutely recommend this device to anyone.
