Re: Re: Alcohol vs. Cannister Stove > Primus and Snowpeak know this and build in significant safety factors. I would guess their canisters are engineered to withstand 200°. That would give them a factor of 2 over a 100° temperat... |

Darn Tough Vermont Socks Customer Service I got a pair of the DTV boot socks in a BGT Test. I gave them hell for four months. It didn't seem to have had any effect on them. Roland B is a very helpful guy too. |

Coleman Exponent Xtreme Stove I have been using the Xtreme in the snow for many years. I have never ever had any problems with it. It lights and runs completely reliably. It will run down to -26 C (-15 F) because the gas mix in t... |
